Embroidery Shirt Printing

Embroidery shirt printing gives a wardrobe order two finishes to pull from, since some designs read cleaner stitched and others read cleaner in ink. Arklavo runs both on Gildan, Champion, and Comfort Colors blanks, every style no minimum, with a free digital proof before production.

Shirt Printing and Embroidery, Customized to Match What Each Design Needs

Embroidery shirt printing gives a wardrobe order two finishes to pull from instead of one, since some designs read cleaner stitched and others read cleaner in ink. A logo with fine text or a lot of small detail usually looks better printed, while a simple mark often looks sharper stitched.

The embroidery shirt printing process at Arklavo has run since 2023, with a free digital proof sent before either finish starts and production wrapped in 2 days once that proof is approved. Every style ships with no order minimum, so a company can test one shirt in each finish before committing to a larger run.

Gildan and Champion for Long Sleeve and Crewneck Options

Gildan's crewneck starts at $6.99 printed or $33.99 embroidered, while Champion's long sleeve runs $28.99 printed or $48.99 embroidered, a range wide enough to cover both a large budget order and a smaller long sleeve run.

Comfort Colors for Embroidery Shirt Printing With a Softer Hand

Comfort Colors' garment-dyed t-shirt runs $19.99 printed or $38.99 embroidered, a softer, pre-washed cotton that a lot of hospitality and retail teams prefer over a stiffer blank, a fabric weight that tends to hold color well through repeated commercial washing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which is better, DTF or embroidery?

Arklavo runs full-color printing and embroidery rather than DTF transfers. Printing suits detailed, multi-color logos, while embroidery holds up longer on heavier cotton, so the better option depends on the design and the fabric it goes on.

How hard is it to embroider a shirt?

Digitizing a logo for embroidery takes some setup work, which Arklavo handles before production starts. A free digital proof shows exactly how the stitched logo will sit on the shirt, so nothing goes into the machine unapproved.

What is the difference between print and embroidery shirts?

Printed shirts carry a full-color ink design on the fabric surface, while embroidered shirts have the logo stitched in thread. Both run on the same blanks in this lineup, and the choice usually comes down to design detail and fabric weight.

Is it cheaper to embroider or print?

Printing is usually the lower-cost finish on a given blank, since embroidery adds digitizing and thread time. Gildan's crewneck, for example, runs $6.99 printed versus $33.99 embroidered on the identical shirt.

What does embroidery shirt printing cost across this lineup?

Prices run from $6.99 for a printed Gildan crewneck up to $48.99 for a Champion embroidered long sleeve, with Comfort Colors' softer garment-dyed tee landing in between at $19.99 printed or $38.99 embroidered.

Can a logo be set up for embroidery shirt printing online?

Yes. Upload the logo file and Arklavo digitizes it for embroidery or prepares it for full-color printing, then sends back a free digital proof showing the exact placement before production starts.

Which brands are available for embroidery shirt printing?

This lineup spans budget blanks from Gildan and Bella + Canvas to heavier weights from Comfort Colors, Champion, and Cotton Heritage, plus performance fabric from Under Armour, all decorated through the same process.

Are toddler or kids sizes available in this lineup?

Yes. Rabbit Skins and Bella + Canvas both offer toddler tees, so a family-run business can order matching sizes for kids alongside the adult staff shirts in the same run, embroidered or printed.

Does embroidery or printing hold up better through repeated washing?

Embroidery tends to outlast printing on heavier fabric since thread does not crack the way ink can over time. The garment-dyed Comfort Colors blank in this lineup is built to hold color well through commercial-grade washing either way.

When will an embroidery shirt printing order ship?

Once the free digital proof is approved, production takes 2 days, then shipping takes 3 to 5 days depending on the destination, with orders over $150 qualifying for free shipping.
