Custom embroidery, stitched to last.
Embroidery stitches your logo directly into the fabric with real thread — a raised, textured, premium finish that won't crack and holds up wash after wash. It's the classic choice for hats, polos, jackets and workwear.

When to choose embroidery
What embroidery is best for
When you want a polished, professional look that signals quality, embroidery is the finish that does it — especially on structured garments screen printing can't handle.
Hats & caps
Structured and curved surfaces embroider beautifully — the number-one product for custom stitched logos.
Polos & workwear
Left-chest logos on polos, button-downs and jackets give staff and teams a clean, corporate look.
Premium brand merch
A stitched logo reads as higher quality than a print — perfect for retail merch and executive gifts.
Beanies & bags
Embroidery adds durable, dimensional branding to knit beanies, totes and backpacks.

What customers say
“I ordered sublimated bandanas for pets. While other vendors only offer one or two size options, Printology has three — plus three printing options. Their reps are unbelievably responsive, and I highly recommend them.”
“I had a last-minute, small-batch print job for custom bandanas. I worked with Cristian, who provided excellent customer service. My bandanas turned out great and were delivered on time. Highly recommend!”
“I was in a pinch when another vendor fell through. Printology had my order scheduled for delivery in 7–10 days and even upgraded my quality. Ten out of ten service — would highly recommend.”
FAQ
Custom Embroidery questions, answered
How much does custom embroidery cost?
Embroidery is priced by stitch count (how large and detailed the design is) and quantity, plus a one-time digitizing fee per design. Configure your products online and we confirm exact pricing within one business day.
What is digitizing, and do I pay for it every time?
Digitizing converts your logo into a stitch file the embroidery machine reads. It's a one-time setup per design — reorders of the same logo skip the fee.
What's the minimum order for embroidery?
Our embroidery minimum is 12 pieces. Because setup is one-time, embroidery stays cost-effective even on smaller runs than screen printing.
Is embroidery better than printing for hats?
Yes — hats and caps have structured, curved surfaces that embroidery handles far better than print. Stitched logos on headwear look premium and last for years.
How many colors can I embroider?
Embroidery matches your logo to thread colors with no per-color surcharge like screen printing has. Very fine gradients or photographic detail don't translate to thread, so simpler, bolder logos embroider best.
What can you embroider?
Caps, beanies, polos, button-downs, jackets, quarter-zips, bags and more. Browse our catalog of premium blanks and pick your styles online.
