Where this method shines
- Polos, button-downs, and dress shirts
- Hats, beanies, and caps
- Jackets, vests, and outerwear
- Workwear and uniforms
- Corporate apparel programs
- Logos and text (clean, professional look)
When to consider another method
- Photographic or highly detailed artwork (too many thread changes)
- Very large designs (12"+ ), where cost and stiffness increase
- Thin or lightweight fabrics that can't support stitching
- Gradients and color fades (thread doesn't blend smoothly)
What affects your price.
We quote every project individually. These are the variables that move the number.
- 01Stitch count (the primary cost driver; more complex logos mean more stitches)
- 02Number of thread colors (each color change adds production time)
- 03Quantity (per-unit cost drops with volume as digitizing is a one-time fee)
- 04Garment type (polos, hats, and jackets have different hooping requirements)
- 05Placement locations (left chest, right chest, back, sleeves, hats)
- 06Digitizing fee (one-time setup to convert your logo to a stitch file)

Common questions.
What is digitizing and why is there a fee?
Digitizing converts your logo from an image file into a stitch file that tells the embroidery machine exactly where to place each stitch. It's a one-time fee, and your file is kept on record for all future orders.
What is the minimum order for embroidery?
The standard minimum is 8 pieces per design. For hat embroidery, minimums may vary by style. Contact us for specifics.
How much does embroidery cost?
Pricing is based on stitch count, thread colors, quantity, and placement. A simple left-chest logo on polos is the most common and cost-effective configuration. Request a quote for exact pricing.
Can you embroider my existing garments?
Yes. Customer-supplied garments are accepted. We'll confirm they're compatible with embroidery before proceeding. A handling fee may apply.
How detailed can the embroidery be?
Embroidery works best for logos, text, and simple icons. Very fine details (thin lines under 1mm, tiny text, gradients) may need to be simplified for clean results.
Will my logo look exactly like the digital file?
Thread has a different texture than ink or pixels, so the look is slightly different by nature; that's part of the appeal. Your digitized file is optimized so it looks its best in thread form.
Can I get different names on each garment?
Yes. Individual names and titles can be added. Send a list of names and which garment each one goes on, and they'll be stitched accordingly.
Do you keep my logo on file for reorders?
Yes. Once digitized, your logo is stored permanently. Reorders skip the digitizing fee and often ship faster.
