Should I choose Print or Embroidery?

Both printing and embroidery are excellent decoration options, but they work best for different types of designs. Here’s how to decide:

🖨️ Printing

Printing uses ink to recreate your design directly onto the garment. It’s versatile, cost-effective, and quick.

Example of garment printing

Choose printing if:

  • You’re on a budget (it’s lower cost)
  • You need your order quickly
  • Your design has fine detail or small text
  • Your design includes gradients or shading
  • You need very specific colour matching

🧵 Embroidery

Embroidery uses coloured threads to stitch your design into the garment. It creates a prestigious, textured look and is very long-lasting.

Choose embroidery if:

  • You don’t mind paying a little extra
  • Your design is simple (no fine detail, small text, or gradients)
  • You want a high-quality, professional finish
  • You need the design to be extremely durable and hard-wearing
