Your Embroidered Logo: Sizing Elements?

Designing your embroidered logo? Wondering how to size the different elements in your logo?

Left chest embroidered logos are limited to 3.25” to 4” wide. Some designs are smaller and a few are slightly larger.  But, they can’t be much bigger because of the limited amount of space between the center of a shirt and the shoulder seam. 

How do you size the different elements in your logo?  Give the most room to the most important element - your business name - and save the remaining space for an image or tag line or possibly both. Even though you may have a great image, avoid the desire to make it bigger than your business name. A larger image may catch someone’s attention but limit the size of your name and make your logo less readable. Want to include your phone number or web address? Avoid the temptation and limit your design to key elements so you have a professional-looking logo rather than a design that looks amateurish because it contains too many details.
