Everything You Need to Know About Custom Embroidery
Quick Navigation:
Canada's trusted custom embroidery partner since 2012
Custom embroidery creates permanent, professional branding through thread stitched directly into fabric. Unlike printing methods that sit on top of garments, embroidered logos become part of the fabric itself, delivering unmatched durability and a premium appearance that never fades, cracks, or peels.
Flat Embroidery
The most versatile embroidery technique, creating smooth, professional results on any fabric. Flat embroidery works perfectly for detailed logos, text, and complex designs on dress shirts, polos, and corporate apparel. Ideal for logo embroidery where precision and detail matter most.A one-colour embroidery adds $14.79 per placement at 24 pieces and $8.37 at 100, on top of the garment.
3D Puff Embroidery
3D puff embroidery uses foam inserts beneath stitching to create raised, dimensional designs popular on caps and athletic wear. This premium technique works best for bold text and simple logos, creating the raised effect you see on professional sports teams and high-end branded merchandise. Costs approximately double flat embroidery.
Appliqué Embroidery
Appliqué embroidery combines fabric pieces with embroidered details, reducing stitch counts for large designs while adding texture and dimension. Perfect for team crests, awards, and designs larger than 4 inches. Particularly effective on jackets and bags where bold visual impact is desired.
Corporate embroidery elevates your brand with professional, durable logo placement on executive apparel and employee uniforms. Toronto's financial district, tech companies, and professional services rely on embroidered polo shirts, dress shirts, and outerwear to project competence and brand consistency.
Executive Apparel
Premium embroidered polo shirts and dress shirts for C-suite executives and client-facing roles. Port Authority Silk Touch polos with subtle left-chest logo embroidery are perfect for Bay Street professionals who want branded apparel without promotional appearance. Nike Golf polos for corporate tournaments and golf events.
Employee Uniforms
Consistent corporate apparel programs with embroidered logos, department identification, and name personalization. We coordinate large orders across multiple locations, ensuring brand consistency from reception staff to field teams. Volume pricing available for 100+ piece uniform programs.
Corporate Gifts
Premium embroidered corporate gifts including fleece vests, softshell jackets, and performance outerwear. These high-perceived-value items work as client gifts, employee recognition, and event merchandise. Quality embroidery ensures recipients actually wear and use the items.
Healthcare embroidery provides durable identification and branding for medical professionals, withstanding industrial laundering while maintaining crisp appearance. Toronto's hospitals, clinics, and medical practices depend on professional embroidered uniforms for staff identification and patient confidence.
Medical Scrubs
Embroidered medical scrubs with department logos, role identification, and name personalization. Thread withstands high-temperature sanitizing washes required in healthcare environments. We work with leading scrub brands that meet healthcare industry standards for durability and comfort.
Lab Coats & Professional Wear
Professional embroidered lab coats for physicians, researchers, and medical staff. Custom embroidery includes names, titles, department affiliations, and medical facility logos. Quality thread maintains appearance through frequent laundering cycles required in medical environments.
Healthcare Facilities
Complete uniform programs for hospitals, clinics, and care facilities. Healthcare embroidery helps patients and families identify staff roles quickly. Colour-coded embroidery by department (nursing, administration, support) improves wayfinding and professional appearance.
Sports team embroidery creates durable team identity on jerseys, warm-up gear, and fan merchandise. From Toronto's recreational leagues to school athletics, embroidered team logos and player personalization withstand the demands of athletic wear and frequent washing.
Team Jerseys & Uniforms
Professional team embroidery on athletic jerseys, warm-up suits, and game-day apparel. Moisture-wicking fabrics require specialized embroidery techniques to maintain flexibility and breathability. Player names and numbers can be added to create complete uniform systems.
Championship & Tournament Gear
Championship embroidery for tournament winners, league champions, and special events. Premium techniques like 3D puff embroidery create trophy-quality merchandise that players and fans treasure. Rush services available for end-of-season tournaments and playoff merchandise.
Fan Merchandise
Team-branded embroidered merchandise for fans, families, and fundraising. Caps, hoodies, and jackets with team logos create revenue streams for sports organizations. Quality embroidery ensures merchandise looks professional and generates team pride.
Embroidery is priced by quantity and thread colours, the way the design tool quotes it: a per-piece price for each placement that drops as the order grows, plus a $25 setup per thread colour spread across the order. All prices are in Canadian dollars; the blank is added on top.
Finished pieces
At 50 pieces with a three-colour logo, a Richardson 112 Trucker Cap (blank $12.42) comes to $24.54 each and a Gildan 8800 DryBlend Jersey Sport Shirt (blank $8.55) to $20.67. One to eight thread colours are priced on the ladder; a second placement adds its own price and setup.
Setup
The $25 per thread colour is the only setup charge in the design tool, and it is spread across the order: on 100 pieces a three-colour logo adds $0.75 a piece. Large or stitch-dense designs such as jacket backs are quoted by email at [email protected].
Premium techniques
3D puff, metallic thread, appliqué and name personalization are quoted by email with the artwork and quantity, since the stitch count sets the price. Flat embroidery of any logo up to eight thread colours is priced on the ladder above.

Embroidery digitizing is the specialized process of converting your logo or artwork into stitch instructions that embroidery machines can read. Professional digitizing determines the final quality, durability, and appearance of your embroidered products.
File Requirements
Best results come from vector files (AI, EPS, PDF) that scale without quality loss. High-resolution PNG or JPG files (300+ DPI) also work well. Avoid low-resolution web graphics, screenshots, or business cards. Our team can work with most file types to create professional digitized embroidery files.
Professional Digitizing
Our embroidery digitizers optimize stitch density, direction, and sequence for each fabric type. Polo shirts require different stitch techniques than caps or jackets. Professional digitizing prevents thread breaks, puckering, and distortion that occur with auto-digitized files.
Permanent File Storage
Once digitized, your embroidery file is stored permanently in our system. Reorders use the existing file at no additional digitizing charge, making subsequent orders faster and more cost-effective. File modifications for different placements or sizes available at reduced rates.
Certain garment styles work best for custom embroidery due to fabric stability, professional appearance, and embroidery-friendly construction. Here are the most popular choices for business, teams, and organizations across Canada.
Polo Shirts
Embroidered polo shirts are the #1 choice for corporate apparel. The structured collar and stable knit fabric provide an ideal embroidery surface. Port Authority Silk Touch, Nike Golf, and Sport-Tek polos are favorites for their professional appearance and embroidery quality. Perfect for left-chest logos and employee name personalization.
Caps & Hats
Embroidered caps offer maximum logo visibility with structured fronts perfect for detailed embroidery. Richardson, Yupoong, and ATC caps provide consistent quality. 3D puff embroidery on caps creates premium branded merchandise. Baseball caps, snapbacks, and beanies all embroider beautifully.
Jackets & Outerwear
Premium embroidered jackets serve as high-value corporate gifts and employee outerwear. Softshell jackets, fleece vests, and windbreakers provide large embroidery areas for detailed logos. Ideal for construction companies, outdoor businesses, and executive gifts that recipients actually use.
Fleece & Performance Wear
Embroidered fleece and performance fabrics work well for athletic teams and casual corporate wear. Champion, Nike, and Under Armour offer embroidery-friendly constructions. Hoodies, quarter-zips, and performance polos maintain professional appearance while offering comfort and functionality.
Proper care ensures your custom embroidered apparel maintains its professional appearance for years. Embroidery is extremely durable but benefits from proper washing and storage practices.
Washing Instructions
- Machine wash in cold water (30°C / 86°F) on gentle cycle
- Turn garments inside out to protect embroidery surface
- Use mild detergent - avoid bleach and fabric softeners
- Separate dark and light colours to prevent bleeding
- Remove items promptly after washing to prevent wrinkles
Drying Instructions
- Air drying is best - hang or lay flat to preserve shape
- If using a dryer, use low heat settings only
- Remove while slightly damp to prevent over-drying
- Never wring or twist embroidered items
Ironing & Pressing
- Iron on reverse side when possible
- Use pressing cloth over embroidery to prevent shine
- Low to medium heat settings - never use high heat on embroidery
- Steam carefully to avoid moisture damage to threads
Pro tip: Quality embroidery lasts longer than most garments. Professional thread and proper stitching withstand hundreds of wash cycles when cared for properly.
