What works best for embroidery
Embroidery suits bold logos with clear shapes. Very fine text and tiny detail can blur in thread, so we may suggest small adjustments to keep your logo crisp. Thread colours are matched to your brand colours.
It works on polos, caps, jackets, fleece and heavier cotton. For lightweight tees or full-colour artwork, screen printing or digital printing is usually the better option. Your stitch file and thread colours stay on file, so reorders match the original.
FAQ
Questions
Can you embroider caps?
Yes. Caps are one of the most popular items we embroider, along with polos and jackets.
What artwork do you need for embroidery?
Send a vector file (AI, EPS or PDF) with Pantone C colours. We turn it into a stitch file and show you a mockup before production.
How is embroidery priced?
It depends on the stitch count of your design, the number of positions and the quantity. Contact OCC Apparel to discuss digitising and minimums.
Can I mix embroidered and printed garments in one order?
Yes. Pair embroidered polos and caps with screen printed tees or hoodies. We supply and decorate the whole range in one order, with one mockup to approve and one delivery.
Can you embroider organic cotton garments?
Yes. Embroidery suits heavier organic cotton tees, sweats and hoodies, as well as polos and caps. See our organic cotton t-shirts.
Do you keep my logo on file for reorders?
Yes. Your logo is digitised once and the stitch file, thread colours and positions are kept on file, so reorders match the original.
