Choosing the best fabric for you

The fabric of your outfit is one of the most essential elements in customizing your workwear. Depending on what industry you work in, whether it’s construction, office or hospitality you may want to consider materials such as cotton, wool, polyester, reflective and water/windproof. When you’re working for long hours, comfort is a significant factor for workwear as some of the products we offer not only offer comfort but durability.

Colours, colours, colours

Don’t forget about colours either! Neutral colours like khaki, navy blue and grey tend to be more professional, while bright colours can bring a pop of personality without being too loud. When customising your workwear, it’s important to understand that the logo we are embroidering onto the garment will need to contrast to make it visible. Here is some great information to help you with your artwork.

Design Details

Once you have selected the fabric for your outfit, it’s time to pick out design details that will make it truly unique. With brands such as Gildan, you are able to pick from a huge selection of colours. This will help you match your company’s branding.

Sizing & fit of your workwear

When shopping for ready-made garments, take note of sizing charts available online so you do not end up feeling uncomfortable during the day due to incorrect fit. Additionally, if you have a large workforce, we can offer a sizing service where we can come out to your business and size up your staff. This will ensure the finished product fits perfectly and looks sharp from day one! 

Clean & Care Instructions

When deciding what method of branding you are interested in, consider that embroidery is a lot more durable than print. If your industry requires a lot of hard work and movement this may be the best choice.
