Do It Now T-shirts is a Philadelphia based screen printing company providing quality printed apparel since 2011. With humble beginnings in a 200 square ft art studio in an old Kensington warehouse, Do It Now was born from a D.I.Y. sate of mind. After many long nights cramped in that studio, by 2014 Matt Charles had outgrown his one man operation. He called upon Johnny Douglas, a friend and master screen printer and the next era of Do It Now was born. Since officially joining forces in early 2017, Matt and Johnny have been keeping that “get in the van and go” attitude that you can only learn in a tour van.

The team
MATTHEW CHARLES
CO-EXCELLENCY
Matt Charles is a master screen printer and production artist who has accumulated over 20 years experience in the industry. He is also a musician who currently plays in local bands and has toured across the US and Europe. Matt is a honest, down to earth guy who strives to make strong relationships with people and businesses in his community.
JOHNNY DOUGLAS
CO-EXCELLENCY
With over 17 years in the trade, Johnny Douglas had a squeegee in hand at the age of 17 apprenticing under Philly infamous Dennis McHugh of Vive 1977, ITL MKT, and at the time East Coast Ghost. Screen printing was survival cash between tours with punk band The Ghouls until it became a full time job. After learning how to 'treat your band like a business' as they say, Johnny now treats the business like a band: "Everyone's role is essential and there's no room for ego. Rhythm and melody."
