The number of apparel decorators offering custom embroidered
polo shirts (also known as golf or tennis shirts) is
overwhelming.
Crooked Brook is not a decorated apparel company; it is a label
used by the atelier division of our art studio.
Our shop is a full-service apparel design, pattern making,
sample making, and small lot production atelier. In addition, we
offer custom embroidery, appliqué and tackle twill.
Embroidery is the method we use to create personalized polo
shirts.
There was a time when polo shirts were polo shirts.
Not anymore.
Today, almost every major apparel brand offers a line of either
short or long sleeve polo shirts. Men’s polo shirts are now
available in what were once considered women’s colors and
women’s polo shirts are no longer smaller versions of men’s,
with silhouettes made specifically for a woman’s figure.
Customized with an embroidered logo, polo shirts are part of the
uniform in many industries, schools, businesses, and especially
in restaurants when paired with a custom apron.
Embroidered logos used to be limited to the left chest, but now
embroidery placements include shoulder sleeves, sleeve cuffs
or on the back about three inches below the neckline.
Promotional polo shirts have always been a great way to build
brand recognition and to promote your business. However, to some
people, since it is a give away, this means buying the cheapest
polo shirt they can find. These usually end up being worn
while doing chores around the house.
Smart business owners know it is worth it to spend a few more
dollars and give somebody a polo shirt they will actually wear
and want to be seen in.
Although the most popular fabric for polo shirts is knitted
cotton pique or jersey, some high-end brands offer polo shirts
in high-performance fabrics, knitted silk, merino wool or other
fabrics.
With so many brands, styles, fabrics, silhouettes and colors to
choose from, you’ve really got to do some research to make sure
you get the polo shirt that fits your needs.
Search Engine results pages are full of decorated apparel
companies offering; "Custom Polo Shirts - $6.95 ea", "Custom
Embroidered Polo Shirts - Free Logo Setup" or, “Cheap
Personalized Polo Shirts". If your only concern is price,
contact them, do not bother us.
