Your Embroidered Logo: Supply Issues?

No 100% cotton black polos in size 2X? Your favorite, two-toned, mesh-back hats are back-ordered for two months? 

Recent supply chain delays have made it difficult to obtain some types of decorated apparel. Items like black polos and sweatshirts are especially hard to find. How do you navigate supply chain issues?

Order early. Then you’ll have your embroidered and screen printed items when you need them.

Start small. Your order will be easier to finalize if you limit the number of styles. Then, place another order for the additional styles you want while your initial order is being processed.

Be flexible. Can you use a substitute style or color? 

Make a change. Have you always wanted to try another style or type of item?  Now is a good time to try something different. If you’ve always ordered a shirt that is currently unavailable now may be the time to order embroidered jackets.

Reserve what you want. While waiting two to three months may seem like a long time, preordering backordered garments will allow you to get what you want and you’ll know when to expect your order.
