Embroidered logos on fabric? Here's what works and what doesn't.

Embroidering a logo on fabric is very popular among companies, as embroidery always adds a touch of class to low-cost custom T-shirts , custom polo shirts , and shirts.

However, when you design embroidery on a polo shirt, T-shirt or shirt , you must consider some factors that will allow you to completely satisfy your customers or employees.

Only a perfectly crafted product ensures that those who receive or purchase it will wear it with pride.

Let's see what these factors (or rather, guidelines) are to consider before ordering cheap custom T-shirts or embroidered polo shirts with your logo from Burger Print.

1) Choose a simple design for your embroidered logo.

Take a look at the big brands that use embroidered logos: all of them, absolutely all of them, feature a very simple but impactful motif.

For example, everyone remembers the logo of Ralph Lauren polo shirts and Lacoste polo shirts, probably even those who have never worn one.

The reason is not only brand awareness, but also the simplicity and uniqueness of the logo .

For this reason, the logo embroidered on polo shirts or T-shirts must be very simple yet easily recognizable. An elaborate logo won't look good if embroidered, and would only confuse people.

2) Embroidery on a polo or T-shirt should be small.

Large graphics work well only when printed, but when it comes to embroidery, it is essential that they are small in size.

Besides the risk of spending a fortune on a simple T-shirt or polo, the effect would be truly unsightly and unappealing. Small, simple embroidered logos are a classy touch you can't go wrong with.

Large and flashy embroidery is not appreciated by people, trust us who have been working with custom clothing for decades!

3) Embroidery on a t-shirt or polo shirt: use the right fabric.

Embroidered logos look great on outerwear, denim, and most heavyweight cotton polos, T-shirts, and shirts, but they don't work well on lightweight, synthetic, and/or stretchy fabrics.

Embroidering a logo on fabric that is too fine gives poor results because, during the first wash, the fabric gathers around the embroidery, resulting in a permanently creased result.

4) Place the embroidery in the right place!

Wondering where to place your embroidered logo? Naturally, on the left chest , right over the heart, or on the left side of the collar. Even the sleeve of a polo shirt or the cuff of a shirt could be a great idea.

Which area should be avoided? In our opinion, the right chest and the center of the garment. An exception can be made for the collar if the embroidery includes the initial of the first name on one side and the initial of the last name on the other.

The reason is simple: in the West, people read from left to right, so it's best to place the logo or initials on the left, so that the embroidery immediately catches the eye.

5) Don't be too generic with your embroidery logo.

Although the logo should be simplified as much as possible to avoid confusing the viewer, it should still have a meaning . It is essential that people immediately understand, at a glance, which brand it is or which company that particular item of clothing belongs to.

For this reason, we recommend you consult a professional, namely a designer, who knows how to best create an effective, impactful yet unobtrusive logo.
