We can turn your file or picture into an embroidery design if you supply us a good quality image either on email or hi-quality print out. We dont need any special file format for embroidery as we can trace over good quality images with our design software and If we can get a needle through it, we can probably embroider it ! The garments we supply are ideally suited to compliment the embroidery process.
 
The maximum size we are able to embroider is 24cm, the average chest size embroidery is approximately 8-10cm. Some garments are unsuitable for embroidery such as very thin woven items, and things such as heavy bags. We do not recommend large shoulder size embroidery to the rear of polo shirts or tees as the embroidery can be too heavy and itch etc, but can be suitable for jacket backs, hoodies and the like. 

Most embroideries are done to the left or right chest of garments and sometimes to the rear large, but rear large embroideries depend on the type of garment, is it thick enough to withstand the weight of embroidery, will it feel itchy on the shoulders if worn next to the skin, and it can also very expensive to stitch logos large to the rear as the more stitches in the design equals more time which in turn equals more cost etc etc. If you are thinking of rear logos, print is usually the best option but can be discussed. Caps can be embroidered to the front and sometimes to the rear depending on the design. Please note baseball caps are more expensive to embroider than normal polo shirts or tees or woolly hats due to the machine and processes used to embroider.

Will my embroidered logo be perfectly straight on every garment and in the exact same position ? in short, the answer is probably not, the long answer and explaination as to why textiles cant be customised exact each time (even companies like Adidas and nike have the same issues) is explained at the bottom of this page below and also here

PLEASE NOTE - we cannot guarantee Pantone matching for every single Pantone colour, - although we are usually very close as some types of garment characteristics cause different pantones to react slightly different., - please arrange for a sample if this is critical to you. Also we reserve the right to use a variation of print methods according to the production needs and logo types.
