Frequently asked questions

Ordering

Is there a minimum order?

No. You can order a single branded garment, and the price per item drops as your quantity goes up.

Can I bring my own garments for you to brand?

No, we only brand garments we supply. That way we can guarantee the finish, and our range covers every industry. Have a particular garment in mind? Send us a link or a photo and we'll find the closest match. Read why we only brand clothing we supply.

Can I order a sample first?

Artwork and logos

Will I see a proof before production?

Yes, always, and it's free. You'll get a digital mock-up of your logo on your chosen garment and colour. Nothing goes into production until you approve it.

Do I get to check the embroidery before the full order is made?

Yes. Once your order is placed, we stitch your logo first and send you a photo to approve before we embroider the rest.

My logo has small text. Will it show up?

Text under about 3mm tall won't be readable at left-chest size. We'll point it out on your proof and suggest leaving it off or making the logo larger.

What file format do you need for my logo?

A vector file (AI, EPS or PDF) is best. A high-resolution PNG or JPG also works for print. If your logo needs redrawing, we'll quote that separately before we start. See our artwork guidelines for more.

Decoration

Can you print on caps?

Our caps are embroidered only. It gives a cleaner, longer-lasting finish.

Can you embroider waterproof garments?

We print on waterproof garments rather than embroider them. Embroidery needs needle holes, which would let water through.

Should I choose embroidery or print?

Embroidery gives a premium, hard-wearing finish on polos, jackets and caps. Print keeps full colour and fine detail, and suits t-shirts and large back logos. We can show you both on your proof.

Get a quote
Can you embroider my logo exactly as it is?

Embroidery uses solid thread colours, so shading, gradients and very fine lines (under about 1mm) can't be stitched. If you need every detail, we'll recommend a full-colour print instead.

Will dark logo colours show on a black garment?

Dark colours such as navy are hard to see on black. We'll show you a version with those parts in white or a lighter colour, and we never change your logo without your approval.

How big can a back print be?

Up to 26cm wide.

Where can my logo go?

The most popular positions are left chest, back and sleeves, but we can decorate most areas of a garment, and you can add several positions to one garment.

Returns and aftercare

What's your returns policy?

Plain items from our standard range can be returned within 14 days of delivery if they're unused and in their original packaging. Branded items are made to your specification, so they can't be returned unless they're faulty or supplied incorrectly. If a return is down to our error or a fault, we cover the return carriage. This doesn't affect your statutory rights.
