Beautifully done embroidery

I was skeptical at first because the hoodie itself isn’t expensive without embroidery. I was so pleasantly surprised by the quality!! It is a pic material, but it is not too thick. I would wear this in the fall or the spring. The embroidery was perfect and honestly done beautifully. Inside is very soft. It is somewhat lightweight, but it still keeps you warm! I would definitely recommend this for style and comfort!!

You can tell it will last a long time

I love the Gildan crewnecks Printful provides. I enjoy the unisex fit since it is comfortable. The quality of the embroidery is great. Sturdy. You can tell it will last a long time. My mom used to be a seamstress and she looked over the work. She said it was very good quality.

Operating on a print-on-demand model, Printful ensures that each item meets stringent quality standards without needing bulk orders. The custom embroidery cost is transparently outlined, enabling you to manage expenses effectively.

Printful offers flat embroidery on apparel and accessories, as well as 3D puff embroidery for caps. With over 178 embroidery-ready products, you can even combine print and embroidery on the same item. 


Whether you're placing a custom embroidery order or exploring our print-on-demand catalog, every product is made with a personal touch and fulfilled at some of the most competitive prices in the industry.

When you create embroidery clothing, they take 5–8 business days to arrive at you or your customers. We fulfill your garments in 2–5 business days, and the average shipping time is 3 business days. For more information, check out our shipping speeds and pricing guide.

Our Design Maker shows a quick preview of how your custom products will look embroidered, but it’s not a 100% accurate depiction. We encourage you to follow our embroidery guidelines for the best possible results. If your design file doesn't meet our quality standards, we’ll send you an updated version you can approve.

Want your embroidery to look great on real t-shirts and other custom products? Here’s how:

  • Keep it simple – Bold, clean graphics work best. Tiny details in a small logo can get lost in the stitching, so prioritize clarity over complexity.
  • Pick your colors wisely – Stick to a simple color palette so your design stays sharp and clean. Bonus: it helps keep your custom embroidery cost in check. But don't limit yourself; with Printful’s print-on-demand services, receive professional results in as many colors as you want.
  • Prep your files like a pro – Use high-res images and follow Printful’s embroidery guidelines to make sure your final result looks and feels great.
  • Choose the right canvas – From t-shirts to jackets, our wide selection of garments makes it easy to match your design to your vibe—and your brand.


Nail these basics, and your embroidery on clothes won’t just look good—it’ll help your brand stand out and make more sales.

Before the embroidery process can begin, our graphic design team needs to convert your file into a format that our embroidery machines can read. This conversion is called embroidery digitization. The machines need digitization to recognize things like stitch type, density, and thread color.

The digitization and adjustment fee depends on the design placement and type:

  • Standard digitization fee for most designs: $6.50 per file
  • Designs created in our Design Maker’s text tool: $3.95 per file
  • Designs on the back or sides of a hat: $2.95 per file

If you get 25+ embroidery products in a single order, we’ll digitize all your designs for free. You can choose different products and add as many embroidery designs as you like.

Yes, some of the embroidery and print-on-demand items are eco-friendly. We aim to develop our product catalog with sustainable, cost-effective custom clothing in mind. Check out our collection of custom eco-friendly products, including quality t-shirts, hoodies, tote bags, and hats.
