Embroidery

Not all shirts can handle the needle. The ones that do? They’re built tough, with dense weaves and just the right weight to keep every stitch neat and every logo flawless.  Think durable cotton, sturdy cotton-poly blends, and textured polos that won’t twist or pucker.  This guide covers the best shirts for embroidery and what makes them ideal. We’ll also highlight some standout Printful options that turn your designs into professional, long-lasting pieces.
