What Eagle, Colorado Businesses Should Know Before Ordering Custom Embroidery

 

 

Before placing an embroidery order, there are important details that Eagle businesses should understand to ensure the best outcome—especially when apparel will be worn daily, exposed to weather, or used in customer-facing environments. Embroidery is an investment, and when planned correctly, it produces long-lasting value and a strong professional appearance.

Here is what Eagle organizations need to know before ordering embroidered apparel.


1. Know What Apparel Will Actually Be Used

Not all garments are worn the same.

Before ordering, identify:

🟢 Will apparel be worn outdoors?
🟣 Will it be part of a uniform?
🔵 Will it be washed multiple times per week?
🟡 Is staff seasonal or long-term?

This determines:

⭐ stitch density
⭐ fabric selection
⭐ placement choice
⭐ durability requirements

Trick Threads helps Eagle businesses choose apparel that truly holds up.


2. Understand How Logo Size Affects Quality

A logo must be digitized correctly before stitching.

Example:

A logo with small script text does not stitch well at 2 inches wide.
Instead, we adjust:

✔ text thickness
✔ line spacing
✔ thread density

This ensures your logo remains clean—not blurred or distorted.

Small logos need simplified detail.

Large back embroidery allows full resolution.


3. Placement Matters More Than Most People Realize

Embroidered apparel typically uses:

⭐ Left Chest Placement

Best for:

✔ uniforms
✔ leadership roles
✔ hospitality staff
✔ property management

This is the "professional position."


⭐ Front Hat Placement

High-visibility and extremely long-lasting.

Hats are worn outside of work → higher branding value.


⭐ Shoulder or Sleeve Embroidery

Popular for:

✔ department identification
✔ certifications
✔ phone numbers
✔ brand slogans


⭐ Back-of-Neck Placement

Used for:

✔ jackets
✔ fleece
✔ winter apparel

Small and refined, but noticeable.


4. Garment Fabric Affects Stitch Results

Different fabrics behave differently when embroidered.


Cotton & Cotton-Blend Shirts

✔ hold stitches tightly
✔ stay smooth
✔ wash well


Performance Fabrics

Need lighter stitch density
Require reinforced backing
Avoid puckering

Ideal for:

🏞 recreation companies
🚚 delivery crews
⚒ field workers


Thick Jackets & Softshells

Require deeper needle penetration
Slower machine speed
Precise stabilization

Benefits:

⭐ excellent long-term visibility
⭐ strong durability


5. Quantity Affects Pricing and Future Consistency

The more items you order, the lower the cost per piece.

Common Eagle order sizes:

Quantity Ideal Use Case
6–24 leadership apparel, small crews
24–48 seasonal hires
50–100 full uniform rollout
100+ multi-department ordering

Order larger quantities when onboarding is predictable.

Reorders become easier when garment batches match colors and construction.


6. Thread Color Matching Matters

When businesses rebrand—or reorder months later—the wrong shade of thread stands out.

We color-match the exact thread tone so:

✔ logos remain consistent
✔ uniforms remain unified
✔ departments stay visually aligned

Consistency builds brand strength.


7. Think Long-Term When Planning Embroidery

Embroidery lasts much longer than printing, so consider:

✔ employee growth
✔ seasonal staffing cycles
✔ departments needing uniforms
✔ potential expansion

Most Eagle businesses reorder annually or every 6–9 months.

Planning ahead ensures consistency, correct sizing, and better unit cost.
