What we embroider

Apparel

  • T-shirts
  • Polo shirts
  • Hoodies and sweatshirts
  • Quarter-zips
  • Shirts
  • Fleece and sweaters
  • Suitable pants and trousers

Polos and hoodies are the classic embroidery garments. T-shirts can be embroidered too, but lighter, stretchier fabrics need more care, so we confirm suitable chest or sleeve placements for your specific shirt.

Typical placements by garment

Polo: left chest, right chest, sleeve and other suitable areas.

Hoodie: chest, sleeve, upper back and other suitable areas.

T-shirt: suitable chest and sleeve areas, depending on the fabric and construction.

What we check before confirming

Fabric, construction, access to the embroidery area, logo complexity, embroidery size and placement. Not every fabric or garment accepts every placement, so we confirm what works for your item before production.

Questions

What can you embroider?

Suitable garments, workwear, headwear and textile accessories: shirts, polos, hoodies, jackets, caps, beanies, bags, aprons and similar items. Whether a specific item suits embroidery depends on its fabric, construction and the area you want stitched, so we confirm that for your item before production.

Can you embroider something I already own?

Possibly. We review customer-supplied items case by case and cannot confirm we can work on one until we have seen the details. Tell us about it in your quote request, ideally with a photo.

How much does embroidery cost?

There is no fixed price list. Cost depends on the item, the quantity, the size and complexity of the design, how many locations you want, digitizing and any personalization. Send us your details and we will reply with a written quote.

What is digitizing?

An embroidery machine does not stitch from an image file. Your artwork is converted into stitch instructions that tell the machine where and how to stitch, suited to the design, the material and the size. Artwork made for printing is not automatically ready for embroidery.

What artwork should I send?

The best original you have, ideally vector (AI, EPS, SVG or PDF). A high-resolution PNG is also helpful. We will tell you if anything needs simplifying for embroidery.

Is there a minimum order?

We have not published a minimum. We confirm what is practical for your item and design when we quote.
