Questions about Custom Polos?
FAQ
Everything you need to know about polo fabrics, decoration methods, corporate uniform and athletic treatments, bulk pricing, and delivery.
What's the best fabric for a custom polo?
Depends on the program. Heritage pique cotton-blend (Port Authority, Adidas, Gildan) is the corporate uniform and lifestyle capsule pick — premium retail hand-feel built for flat embroidery, custom patches, and plastisol screen print. Performance polyester / Dri-FIT (Nike, Under Armour, OGIO) is the athletic and golf-lifestyle pick — moisture-wicking performance face built for flat embroidery, full-color DTG, and heat-pressed transfers. Heritage slub-knit premium (TravisMathew, AS Colour) is the premium streetwear capsule pick — premium lifestyle hand-feel built for flat embroidery, full-color DTG, and chenille patches. Heavyweight cotton jersey (Gildan, Hanes, Jerzees) is the corporate team and bulk rollout choice.
Can you decorate heritage pique cotton-blend, performance polyester, heritage slub-knit, and heavyweight cotton jersey polos?
Yes. Flat embroidery is the headline decoration on every polo fabric — flat embroidery, chain-stitch embroidery, 3D puff embroidery, and tonal embroidery. Full-color DTG works on heritage slub-knit and heavyweight cotton jersey. Plastisol screen print works on heritage pique cotton-blend and heavyweight cotton jersey. 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 polos?
Flat embroidery is raised-thread embroidery applied directly into the polo shell — best on heritage pique cotton-blend and heritage slub-knit polos for corporate uniform and lifestyle capsule programs. Full-color DTG is full-color print applied directly into the shell — best on heritage slub-knit and heavyweight cotton jersey polos for lifestyle, athletic, and streetwear programs. Both deliver a retail-quality finish with different textures.
Are custom polos machine-washable?
Yes. Follow the garment label — most heritage pique cotton-blend, performance polyester, heritage slub-knit, and heavyweight cotton jersey polos are machine-washable cold and tumble-dried low or hung to dry. 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 polo 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 polo archive. Reach out for a custom quote tailored to your corporate uniform, athletic or golf-lifestyle program, premium streetwear capsule, corporate team rollout, or bulk corporate order.
How quickly can I get custom polos for a corporate uniform or athletic program?
Standard production is 10–14 business days after proof approval. Rush production is available for corporate uniform deadlines, athletic and golf-lifestyle program rollouts, premium streetwear capsule drops, corporate team and bulk rollouts, and corporate-retreat kit rollouts. Every order ships with tracking and we plant one tree per order placed.
