They say when you marry a veteran, you sign up for the mission—and apparently the whole family enlists, too!

As Walt’s wife, my heart is bursting with pride today. A huge thank you to Kira who reported for duty this past Saturday to press tank tops and embroider hats for a local league.

Kira has spent the last six months learning the trade and absolutely crushing it. Watching her confidence grow and her skills develop has been incredible. Walt, you may want to keep an eye on your position—she’s mastering those machines faster than expected!

Thank you for your dedication, hard work, and willingness to step up when needed. Your commitment helps keep the Day Zero shop running strong, and we couldn’t be prouder. 🇺🇸❤️

Proud brother-in-law moment!

Congratulations to Coach Babbit on winning the 2026 FCYBL Most Valuable Coach Award! 🏀👏

Some people are just built for community — and my brother-in-law, Coach Babbit, is one of them. Maybe it’s something about being born in 1976… a year that gave us greatness like Kobe Bryant, Allen Iverson, and Steve Nash. That same competitive spirit and passion for the game lives in him every single day.

Coach Babbit has been around basketball since the age of 5, competing against elite talent in Northern Virginia back in 1992-1994, collegiately in NC and now pouring that same knowledge and energy into the next generation. Proud to see him taking the lead with the local youth basketball team, Chantilly CYA Purple Reign.

It’s bigger than basketball — it’s mentorship, leadership, and building community through the game. Keep making an impact, Coach. 💜🏀

🇺🇸 Brothers in Arms & Partners in Apparel🤝⚾️

Talk about a connection that spans over two decades! We had the absolute honor of welcoming a fellow servicemember and long-time brother, Jac, right here into The DZ Shop.

This link goes back twenty years, and now it’s coming full circle to outfit an almost forgotten American Legion Baseball League. Keeping the tradition of the game alive with top-tier gear is exactly why we do what we do.

When Jac hit us up to get the league outfitted with premium custom apparel, we knew we had to deliver big. But the real dedication? Jac traveled over 200 miles just to slide through and pick up the order in person before their very first tournament kicks off! That is true service and commitment right there.

Thank you, Jac, for trusting Day Zero Custom Apparel to handle the league’s look. We are incredibly honored, humbled, and thankful for your support.

Play hard, look sharp, and let’s get this season started! 💥⚾️🔥

Early bird gets the... custom apparel? 🦅👕
Woke up around 6 AM looking for Walt and had to FaceTime him like, "Where are you?!" 😂
Turns out, he was already down at the shop, knocking out orders before the sun was even fully up! In fact, he’d already been up for two hours.
So if you’ve got a project on your mind at 6 AM but you're hesitating to reach out because you think you'll disturb us? Don't worry about it! Walt is already on it.
Drop us a text at 804-567-8010 and let's start collaborating on your next custom project today! 🧵✨

Custom Carhartt gear in the works! 🛠️ Walt is busy prepping custom patched hats and embroidered work shirts for a local property management maintenance team. Quality matters, which is why we’re proud to be an official Carhartt decorator.

Eight years later, and I’m still in awe of how far we’ve come. We’ve evolved from learning the basics to producing everything from custom logos and softball uniforms to complex embroidery and sublimation. Without formal training, we relied on manuals, YouTube, and sheer determination to master our craft

It’s amazing what you can achieve when you trust the process and believe in your own potential.

Side note: Pictured are a few designs we created in-house. "Day Zero" isn't just a name—it’s our promise. We are with you from Day Zero, from the initial concept to the finish line.
