Decoration & Imprint
7 methods
Your logo is placed on the left chest or back of the cardigan. Embroidery offers a raised, textured stitch; screen printing provides crisp, opaque color; heat transfer delivers a smooth, low-profile mark. For bold, high-contrast artwork, embroidery or screen printing are ideal; for fine detail, heat transfer holds crisp lines.
Embroideryone-time setup $62.50 · Full color
Embroidery stitches your design directly into the fabric, building artwork from dense, interlocking threads rather than laying ink on the surface. Each color is its own thread in a solid shade. The result is a raised, tactile mark with the soft sheen of thread and a slightly dimensional edge. Each shape reads as a clean, saturated block, and the sewn-in design resists fading, peeling, and wear through repeated washing.
Laser Appliqueone-time setup $62.50 · Full color
Applique (tackle twill) cuts your design into contrasting fabric shapes and stitches them onto the item, each edge secured in thread so the shape sits slightly proud of the base. Large logos stay soft and flexible, fabric fill replacing the dense thread that makes full embroidery feel stiff. The applied result is tactile and layered: you feel distinct cloth panels and a raised stitched border, with each shape's own fabric carrying the color. Color comes from the fabric and thread themselves, so bold solid shapes stay crisp and saturated, and the stitched edges hold through repeated washing without peeling.
Die Mold Transfersone-time setup $187.50 · Full color
Heat transfer prints your design in premixed spot inks onto a film, then bonds that film to the surface under heat and pressure. Each color goes down as its own solid ink, so edges stay crisp and color stays even across the mark. The result reads as a smooth, thin bonded layer — low-profile and flexible enough to move with the fabric, not ink soaked into the cloth.
Screen PrintingFull-color imprint · 1 location included · one-time setup $25.00
Screen printing presses ink through a fine mesh stencil, laying down each color as a separate pass. Each color lays down as its own premixed spot ink, printing solid and consistent across the run. The applied mark is flat and opaque, sitting on top of the material with crisp edges; on heavy coverage, you can feel a slight raised texture where ink builds up. The cured ink is durable and holds up to repeated handling and washing.
Laser Tech Patchone-time setup $62.50
Laser patch (laser leatherette patch) uses precision laser engraving to burn away the surface layer of a synthetic leather patch, exposing a contrasting tone beneath — no ink or added color involved. The finished patch is sewn or affixed to the item. The result is a slightly recessed, two-tone etch you can feel, with a rugged finish that resists washing, sun, and outdoor wear. Crisp edges and bold marks resolve cleanly; very fine lines and smooth gradients lose definition.
Direct To Film Heat Transfersone-time setup $31.25 · Full color
Direct-to-film printing lays CMYK ink and a white underbase onto a PET film, then heat-presses the image onto the garment as a flexible bonded layer, with no fabric pre-treatment. It reproduces photographs, gradients, and many-color artwork; the white base carries color on dark cloth. Color lands close to brand references as a process blend, with a smooth, slightly filmic hand.
Chenilleone-time setup $62.50 · Full color
Chenille stitches looped yarn into solid shapes, building a soft pile raised above the fabric. Each color area gets its own solid-shade yarn, for clean separation between blocks. The result is tactile and dimensional — a velvet-like surface with a vintage, collegiate character. Edges stay soft, so the mark reads boldly from a distance and rewards touch up close.
