Quick Summary
CoolWick offers three main paths: Quick Ship (ready designs, fastest), Fast Track (faster custom-style options), Semi-Custom (an existing design with options; no standard proof) and Full Custom (an original design with a proof). Pick based on timeline, design control, and budget.

Not sure? If you need it for league next week and a stock design works, start with Quick Ship. If you need names, numbers, logos, or a unique design, plan for custom production time (or add rush).
Side-by-Side Comparison
| Quick Ship | Fast Track | Semi-Custom / Full Custom | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Design control | Choose from ready styles | Faster custom-style path | Semi-custom: existing design; proof only if requested. Full custom: original design + proof |
| Names / numbers / logos | Limited / as offered | Available on many styles | Full customization |
| Typical timeline | Fastest (stock path) | Faster than full custom | Full custom: about 22–28 business days after approval. Semi-custom timing does not wait on a standard proof |
| Best for | Need it soon | Events with some lead time | Teams, unique looks, brand builds |
| Returns | Usually standard 60-day rules | Check product path | Stricter — see custom return rules |
Quick Ship
Ready-to-order CoolWick designs with the shortest path to your door. Great when fit and free shipping matter more than a one-of-a-kind layout.

Fast Track
A middle path when you want more personalization than stock but less lead time than a full semi-custom build. Availability varies by style — product pages show current options.
Semi-Custom / Full Custom
Semi-custom: personalize an existing design. A proof is not automatically provided, even when a custom logo is selected. You may request a virtual mockup in the Additional Notes section; the designer may provide one, and edits may involve a fee.
Full custom: create an original design with our team and approve a proof before production.
Which Should I Choose?
- Under ~2 weeks, flexible on design: Quick Ship
- Event in a few weeks, some customization: Fast Track or rush custom
- Team look / unique design: Semi-Custom with standard or rush production
âš Timeline tip
Custom clocks usually start after you approve the proof, not at checkout. Plan for design review. See Shipping & Production Timelines.
