Conclusion

Embroidery usually refers to a t-shirt or apparel that has a pattern or logo stitched into its fabric.

It is best used for creating logos on thicker garments such as polo-styled corporate t-shirts, jumpers, or jackets.

Embroidery services have a more expensive cost but it is much more durable than print t-shirts due to their long-lasting and durable nature.

We recommend opting for embroidery instead of printing services for quality t-shirts when the design is used for printing logos and the design is meant for corporate gifts or class tees printing.

For best results, it is best to avoid heavy gradients and complicated colour palettes in the design of the t-shirt.

Why should you choose embroidery?

1) Better Durability

This method is much more durable than any t-shirt printing method as it will generally outlast the t-shirt itself.

This is a good option for class t-shirts, especially school uniforms where students tend to replace them once a year.

2) Has a professional finish

Embroidered logos especially on corporate t-shirts give the ultimate professional image which is why they are used mostly in the corporate world.

Embroidery gives you a high-quality finish on garments like class t-shirts and t-shirts for corporate gifts that can give a much more professional look.

 3) You can use multiple colours for the same cost

The embroidery machine can have up to 20 different colours at one time. So this suits class t-shirts with colourful logo designs without the additional costs to embroider onto the t-shirt.

When you shouldn’t use embroidery?

1) Pricier than other t-shirt printing methods

If you have budget constraints, it is not suitable for the t-shirt printing service you require.

2) Unsuitable for small intricate designs

As it used thread, it can cause smaller elements to clam up on the t-shirt during the embroidery process.

 3) Unsuitable for gradient designs

Threads and stitches are not able to fade into colours that go from light to dark. Shirt printing will be much more suitable for this effect.

4) Limited design size

Embroidery doesn’t work well on large t-shirt designs. A large design on the t-shirt will look better using other printing methods.

Conclusion

If you are looking for a more expensive t-shirt look and logo printing, the embroidery method is a much better option for you.
