Embroidery
You need to purchase custom embroidered shirts, Hats or visors for your
business. You're unsure about what style to get. How do you choose the
right style, a great shirt, hat or visor that your employees will wear and
that fits your budget?
Special Requirements For Your Shirts, hats or visors
Before considering specific styles let your embroiderer know what color
sizes you want, if you need a ladies companion style and if extended or
tall are required. Also have a general idea of what quality you need and
your shirt budget. Knowing these specific needs will help you narrow
your styles choices.
Polo Shirt Fabrics
One of the primary decisions when choosing a polo shirt style is
whether you want 100% cotton or a cotton/polyester blend fabric. Cotton
is cooler, a blend will be more wrinkle, fade and shrink resistant. Consider
that although some people prefer a blend fabric, many of the better quality
100% cotton polos are preshrunk and wrinkle resistant. Also check out the
look and feel of the fabric's texture. Polo style fabrics range from jersey
knit, a T-shirt-like fabric, to textured fabrics such as pique and honeycomb
pique.
Narrow Your Polo Style Choices
Narrow your choices to two or three polo shirt styles at different price
points. Even if you are on a strict budget, the least expensive shirt may
not be the best buy. Consider who will wear the polo shirts and who will
see them. Are they long term employees or seasonal workers; sales
people or kitchen staff? A quality polo is a good choice for long-term
workers but a less-expensive shirt might be better for summer employees.
Also remember that employees will be more likely to wear a quality polo
that looks and feels good.
Ladies Companion Polo Styles
If you need a ladies companion style, consider getting feedback about
possible styles choices from the women. While all ladies companion
styles are sized for women with shorter sleeve and hem lengths and
a trimmer body, ladies necklines can vary from a standard reversed
placket to a V-neck button placket or a johnny collar. Some women
feel more comfortablewearing a men's polo shirt so its good to give
them that option.
Special Features For Polo Shirts
Once you've reviewed your needs you might want to consider polo
shirt styles with special features such as moisture-wicking or stain
resistant fabric. These fabrics help employees present a professional
image under all workingconditions. Also consider polo shirts with
trim detailing. A trim detail color will help emphasize your logo.
For example, if your business name is in white, choosing a polo
with a white accent on the collar will add emphasis to your logo.
Choosing Polo Shirt Sizing
When collecting sizing information make sure employees are clear
about what sizes they want. If they need tall/long sizes have them
write out tall or long, for example, 2X long rather than 2XL. For
women, make sure they note if they want a ladies or a men's size
so its clear what they need.

count, usually $1.00 to $1.25 per thousand stitches. Either
