Who We Are

We’re Lyle and Cindy Bayles, the husband-and-wife team behind Bear Skins Custom Ink. We’re not your typical print shop—we’re a local partner for businesses, schools, and groups here in Blanding who want their brand to look top-notch. Every order is handled right here in-house, and we personally oversee the process from start to finish. That means your shirts, hats, or gear aren’t just “good enough”—they’re the kind of quality we’re proud to put our name on.

Bear Skins has been family owned and operated since 2016, when we took a leap of faith and bought the local screen printing shop. What started as a new chapter after Lyle’s 30-year career in law enforcement and Cindy’s years as a stay-at-home mom quickly became a business rooted in service, community, and craftsmanship. Since then, we’ve expanded to offer embroidery and graphic design, all with the same hands-on attention to detail.

We’ll be honest—we’re not the cheapest option if you’re just bargain shopping. But if you want your team, your business, or your family to look great and feel confident, we stand behind every stitch, every print, every time.

For us, Blanding isn’t just where we live—it’s home. We love this community, and we’re grateful every day for the support we’ve received here. Whether we’re in the shop or out in the woods, our goal is simple: deliver work we’re proud of and service that keeps people coming back.
