Choosing the Right Polo for Embroidery

If you want to rep your brand well it's important to pick out the right polo to put your custom logo on. Not all polos are created equal, and there are a few key things to keep in mind when it comes to choosing the right polo to fit your needs:

Fabric Matters- Cotton polos (like this Gildan option) are going to be light and breathable, but they might wrinkle more easily and won't wick away moisture as well. Performance fabrics (like this Nike Dri-Fit polo) will keep moisture wicked away and keep your crew looking cool.
Fit and Feel- From women's cuts to more athletic fits, make sure you're thinking through the team members that will be using these and what will work best for them.

Embroidery Tips for Polos

Make sure you're logo is making a great impression and maintain a timeless appeal:

Design and Details- Try simplifying your design or logo choice as much as possible. The embroidery result will be the best with clean, bold design elements. If you're primary logo has small details or fine lines, consider using a secondary brand mark.
Placement and Size- The most common placement will be about 3" wide on the left chest, or you can mix it up with a logo on the sleeve. The max size for embroidering on the sleeve is 3" by 3".
Embroidery styles- Keep it simple and classic with the standard embroidery option, or mix it up by making some of the logo elements stand out with puff embroidery to create a cool, 3D look.
