Questions about Custom Vests?

FAQ

Everything you need to know about vest fabrics, decoration methods, heritage workwear and lifestyle treatments, bulk pricing, and delivery.

What's the best fabric for a custom vest?

Depends on the program. Heritage cotton duck canvas (Carhartt, Los Angeles Apparel) is the heritage workwear capsule pick — premium workwear hand-feel built for flat embroidery, custom patches, and plastisol screen print. Heritage sweater-knit fleece (Marine Layer, North Face, Patagonia) is the lifestyle lookbook pick — premium retail hand-feel built for flat embroidery, full-color DTG, and chenille patches. Insulated puffer (Patagonia, Helly Hansen, Under Armour) is the outdoor and corporate-team pick — packable retail hand-feel built for heat-pressed transfers, metallic foil, and flat embroidery. Soft-shell / hybrid performance (G Fore, Galvin Green, Peter Millar, Zero Restriction) is the athletic and golf-lifestyle program choice.

Can you decorate heritage cotton duck canvas, sweater-knit fleece, insulated puffer, and soft-shell performance vests?

Yes. Flat embroidery is the headline decoration on every vest fabric — flat embroidery, chain-stitch embroidery, 3D puff embroidery, and tonal embroidery. Full-color DTG works on sweater-knit fleece and soft-shell performance. Plastisol screen print works on heritage cotton duck canvas and sweater-knit fleece. Chenille patches, woven crest patches, embroidered emblem patches, multi-patch chenille + woven label compositions, heat-pressed transfers, and metallic foil round out the library.

What's the difference between flat embroidery and full-color DTG on vests?

Flat embroidery is raised-thread embroidery applied directly into the vest shell — best on heritage cotton duck canvas and sweater-knit fleece vests for heritage workwear and lifestyle capsule programs. Full-color DTG is full-color print applied directly into the shell — best on sweater-knit fleece and soft-shell performance vests for lifestyle, athletic, and lookbook programs. Both deliver a retail-quality finish with different textures.

Are custom vests machine-washable?

Yes. Follow the garment label — most heritage cotton duck canvas, sweater-knit fleece, and soft-shell performance vests are machine-washable cold and tumble-dried low or hung to dry. Down-insulated puffer vests should be machine-washed cold on a gentle cycle and tumble-dried low with tennis balls to restore down loft, or sent to a specialty down-cleaner. Turn inside-out before washing for longest decoration life on full-color DTG, plastisol screen-printed, and heat-pressed transfer decoration. Flat-embroidered emblems, woven patches, and embroidered emblem patches are sewn-on and machine-wash safe.

Do you offer bulk pricing on vest orders?

Yes. Bulk discounts apply at volume across embroidery, full-color DTG, plastisol screen print, heat-pressed transfer, custom patch, and foil runs on the full vest archive. Reach out for a custom quote tailored to your heritage workwear capsule, lifestyle lookbook drop, outdoor and corporate-team program, athletic and golf-lifestyle program, or corporate-team order.

How quickly can I get custom vests for a heritage workwear capsule or lifestyle lookbook drop?

Standard production is 10–14 business days after proof approval. Rush production is available for heritage workwear capsule deadlines, lifestyle lookbook drops, outdoor and corporate-team program rollouts, athletic and golf-lifestyle program rollouts, and corporate-retreat kit rollouts. Every order ships with tracking and we plant one tree per order placed.
