Can the back of a sweatshirt be embroidered? Yes. Small designs can be embroidered just below the collar. This is a great location for a slightly larger version of your left chest logo (4” - 6” wide) or a web address if the sweatshirts have a crew or cadet collar.
Want a large design? Say 10” to 12” wide or high? Most likely it will be more economical to have it screen printed. Unlike lightweight T-shirt fabric, sweatshirt material can support a large embroidered logo but the set-up can cost $100.00 or more and you’ll pay for additional machine running time.
Screen printing most designs will be cheaper as long as you can meet minimum printing quantities. What if you only need a few sweatshirts? Locate a decorator who provides direct-to-garment printing. The cost per sweatshirt will be more but the look is almost identical to screen printing and you won’t be charged for screens which makes this an especially good option for multi-colored logos. What if your design has lots of colors and you need a large quantity printed? Four-color process printing may be your best option. Still unsure what type of printing is best for your job?
