Embroidery
There's a lot of reasons why we love embroidery!
Our garment recommendations
We love embroidery for custom hats and headwear. It’s also super popular for workwear, so if you’re thinking polos, jackets and aprons, then embroidery is the perfect solution for you. Check out our range by filtering for “Embroidery” on Our Products page.

Process
Traditionally a handmade decorative process, embroidery is now a precision machined technique. With our personalised embroidery service, we utilise state-of-the-art equipment to create gorgeous, complex outcomes with multiple thread colours.
Our design tool intuitively colour matches your design with the closest colour thread we have in our extensive thread library. If you’re looking for an exact colour match, let us know when you checkout and we’ll reach out to you to get the result you’re looking for.

Pricing
Custom embroidery prices will vary depending on the size and complexity of the design, that’s because it’s based on stitch count. A small 3x3cm logo with one colour will cost a lot less than a 20x20cm design with 8 different colours as the stitch counts will vary greatly.
That’s why we’ve got our pricing calculator on all embroidery merchandise, so have a look at what garment you want, and then play with our calculator to get an idea of what it’ll cost.

Embroidery quality & feel
Embroidery lasts longer on textiles – it doesn’t fade given the right love. It also adds texture and dimension to your design.
Get your crew a cool batch of custom embroidered merchandise. The Print Bar’s wide range of thick shirts, from t-shirts to polo shirts, make the perfect canvas for embroidered embellishments. Or, keep things versatile by creating your own custom embroidered patches. You can have them sewn anywhere: bags, hats, hoodies – the possibilities are endless.

Tips
For the best custom embroidery outcomes, we recommend:
- Supplying a vector image (when you can) with a maximum of 8 colours
- Being conscious of the finer details within the design – less is more!
- Making sure that details and text isn’t too small so it can remain legible.
