Questions about Custom Aprons?
FAQ
Everything you need to know about styles, decoration, and delivery.
What is the most durable fabric for custom aprons?
Heavyweight cotton canvas (10oz+) and industrial denim are the most durable options, built for daily professional use in high-volume environments.
Can you embroider on the chest pocket of the apron?
Yes. We can embroider on the pocket itself or just above it. Exact placement is shown in your free creative proof before production.
Are custom aprons machine-washable?
Yes. Most of our canvas, denim, and cotton aprons are machine-washable. We recommend using cold water and a gentle cycle, then hanging to dry to protect the decoration and the fabric.
Is there a minimum order for custom aprons?
Most of our aprons have a 1-piece minimum for embroidery and DTG. Wholesale bulk discounts for screen printing typically begin at 12+ pieces.
Do you offer aprons in organic or recycled materials?
Yes. We offer several styles from Econscious and Everybody World that feature organic cotton and 100% recycled fabrics for a more sustainable lifestyle look.
How quickly can I get custom aprons for a restaurant launch?
Standard production time is 10-14 business days after proof approval. If you're on a tight deadline, please mention your date so we can prioritize your order with our rush production services.
