Your Embroidered Logo: Branded Image

Want to create a branded business image? Pick a variety of decorated garments that work together to create a unified look that represents your business. Consider wearing embroidered button down shirts, long sleeve polo shirts or turtlenecks paired with sweaters and polar fleece for the cooler months. Choose apparel colors that work with your logo and give variety to your appearance while still maintaining a uniform look. Don't forget to accessorize your outfits with embroidered hats and bags which can also be given to good customers and friends.

Your Embroidered Logo: Slub T's?

Checking out some of the new T-shirt options?  Wondering what "slub cotton" T's are? Slub cotton contains small lumps of fabric (slubs) and imperfections that give it a textured feel and appearance. This uneven look is created by having the fabric knot or twist or by using fibers of different lengths during the weaving process.

Creating a cotton fabric with a rough, irregular look gives it a unique, casual appearance that's great for custom embroidered T-shirts.  If you're looking for a casual T with a unique, vintage look then slub T's may be a good choice for you!

Your Embroidered Logo: Collar Design?

You've decided to order embroidered button down shirts. You're considering having your logo embroidered on the left front collar for a change but you're wondering how that will look. Will your current logo work or will you need a modified version?

The collar is limited to a small design space (approximately 2 3/4" wide x 1 1/4") high so you'll most likely need a simplified version of your logo. You can use your business name but you'll want to eliminate any small text. Why can't you just downsize your left chest logo? Most likely you can't decrease the size enough and have it still be readable and look good. What if you have an image in your logo? Using just the image or a simplified version might create the most distinctive design and therefore work best to help advertise your business.  

Your Embroidered Logo: Still More Updates!

Are there particular elements in your logo design that don't work? Is the image too large, the text detailed or unreadable? These problems can often be fixed by resizing or eliminating an element. Detailed images can be simplified and downsized and small, hard-to-read text can be eliminated. Why not just increase the size of your logo? If your logo is less than four inches wide that may work. But, don't make it much bigger or your logo will look too large and it may not fit on smaller sized shirts.

When you think your logo is finally ready put it aside for some time and review it again. Get feedback from people who will give their honest opinion. Is your logo unique, balanced, memorable and appropriate for your business? Will it appeal to your potential customers? When its embroidered on your custom embroidered polo shirts will it represent what your business does and how you do it?
