PRICE: The price of printing depends on the type of printing, the size of the logo and the number of colors in the logo or advertising message.
Embroidery
Personalization of work clothes and other corporate and promotional products with machine embroidery (sewing) is a technique that ensures the long-term durability of the applied motifs. Embroidery adds elegance, luxurious look and uniqueness to the products.
We carry out embroidery on work clothes, fleeces, short and long-sleeved shirts, polo shirts, robes, aprons, caps, towels and all other textile products on which you want to transfer your overall image or promotional messages.

PRICE: The price for embroidery is determined by the number of needle punctures into the material. Thus, the price increases with the size of the logo. The number of colors in embroidery does not affect the price.
Which form of personalization is suitable for which products?
Not every form of personalization is suitable for all types of clothing. Either due to the material composition of the product, characteristics that prevent the implementation of a certain type of personalization or other factors.
Work clothing
For work clothes, personalization with machine embroidery is recommended in most cases. Embroidery is more resistant to the effects that work clothes are exposed to, such as sunlight, frequent washing, regular use, etc.. Embroidery is recommended for all work clothes made of cotton, polyester and those with a low percentage of added elastane.

advises!
Embroidery is not recommended for clothes made of highly elastic materials! Stretching can cause damage to clothing around the embroidery area. In this case, thermal printing is recommended, which uses a stronger adhesive resistant to 90 ⁰C.
High visibility clothing
For high visibility clothing, personalization with printing is recommended in most cases. For all articles made of polyester and cotton, we recommend thermal printing, which is resistant to 90 ⁰C. We recommend sublimation printing on signal t-shirts and vests, which are made of "mesh" material, which keeps the fabric breathable.
!Work Foxx advises!
High visibility clothing is often used in conditions of poor or reduced visibility. As a result, they are made of durable materials and several layers that offer the user protection in all weather conditions. Such garments cannot be personalized with machine embroidery.
Clothing for hospitality and tourism
For hospitality and tourism clothing, personalization with machine embroidery is recommended in most cases. Embroidery is more resistant to the effects that hospitality and tourism clothing is exposed to, such as sunlight, frequent washing, regular use, etc.. Embroidery is recommended for all hospitality and tourism clothing made of cotton, polyester and those with low percentage value of added elastane.
!Work Foxx advises!
In the HoReCa industry, the professional and elegant appearance of the employees can be decisive for the overall impression of the service. Embroidery will give your clothes a premium look.
Jackets and vests
For jackets and vests, both personalization with machine embroidery and printing is recommended. Personalization with printing can be carried out on all products from the offer. Meanwhile, we are a little more limited when it comes to embroidery. If it is a multi-layer or thicker piece of clothing, embroidery cannot be done.
!Work Foxx advises!
Always consult a sales advisor before personalizing jackets and vests. The method of personalization varies from product to product. Because jackets and vests are not washed as often as work clothes, you don't have to worry about the durability of the print on your clothes.
Thermo or fleece clothing
Machine embroidery personalization is recommended for thermal and fleece clothing. Fleece is a light, warm and comfortable material that is perfect for personalization. Due to the characteristics of the material, printing on vests and fleece jackets is not recommended.
!Work Foxx advises!
Logos or advertising in thin or small letters can be a big problem when embroidering on fleece clothing! Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the size of the logo or the inscription appropriately before production. Always check with your sales advisor for logo size before embroidering!
Softshell clothing
For softshell jackets and vests, personalization with machine embroidery as well as printing is recommended. Personalization with printing can be carried out on all products from the offer. Meanwhile, we are a little more limited when it comes to embroidery. If it is a multi-layer or thicker piece of clothing, embroidery cannot be done.
!Work Foxx advises!
Always consult a sales advisor before personalizing softshell jackets and vests. The method of personalization varies from product to product, as embroidery cannot be done on jackets with fixed linings.
T-Shirts, Hoodies and sweaters
For t-shirts, jackets and sweaters, personalization with machine embroidery as well as printing is recommended. This product category is the easiest to personalize and also the most popular. Embroidery is usually done on high-end premium products, while printing is suitable for all products. The type of printing is determined according to the material composition of the product and the amount of personalized products. The most popular type of printing for promotional purposes is definitely screen printing. For sports shirts made of at least 70% polyester, we also recommend sublimation.
!Work Foxx advises!
Always consult a sales consultant before personalizing t-shirts, jackets and sweaters. The main factors in choosing a personalization method are the type of product and its quantity. If you wish, we can also print on the entire surface of the t-shirt.
Caps and hats
For caps and caps, personalization with machine embroidery as well as printing is recommended. Only embroidery can be done on knitted winter hats. Chef hats and visor hats can be personalized with printing or embroidery. In recent times, 3-D embroidery has also gained popularity, giving the impression that the inscription or logo stands out.
!Work Foxx advises!
Caps and visors are an extremely popular piece of promotional material due to their low price. A wide range of caps allows you to find a cap in the colors of your company, which you can take to a higher level with printing or embroidery.
What should be the graphic preparation for printing or embroidery?
In order for the personalization of clothes with printing or embroidery to be fast and high-quality, it is also important to prepare the files. We recommend sending vector files with EPS, AI, CDR or PDF extensions, which must not be compressed. The texts must be converted into curves, and the colors are defined in the Pantone Color Guide (C) scale. Of course, all this is not a condition. Our business partners and graphic designers will help you prepare and review files to make your products the way you want them.
