Get Regally Ready for the King’s Coronation! 

After the sudden passing of Queen Elizabeth II, the world watched as Prince Charles ascended to the throne, becoming King Charles III. With his coronation approaching, preparations are underway to ensure that this momentous occasion would be celebrated in style. 

One of the most exciting developments was the unveiling of the new Coronation Emblem. This emblem was designed specifically for use during King Charles III’s coronation festivities. 

The Royal Coronation Emblem

What’s even more exciting is that the Royal Family has allowed this emblem to be used for public and commercial use. This means that anyone can use this emblem to make custom designs for clothing, accessories, and more. 

Here is a link to the Emblems and also some guidelines to have a look through before making your designs. 

This decision by the Royal Family has opened up a world of possibilities for designers and creators who want to pay homage to King Charles III’s coronation in their own unique way. Whether you’re a dropshipping company looking to create a bespoke collection and utilising the occasion or an individual looking to make your own custom t-shirt or hoodie to show your support, the new Coronation Emblem provides a perfect starting point. 

Who’s behind the design of the Coronation Emblem?

Designed by Sir Jony Ive KBE and his creative collective LoveFrom. The emblem celebrates the new Reign and was inspired by King Charles’ love for nature. Sir Jony is a renowned British designer with over 14,000 patents worldwide and holds honorary doctorates from various universities. LoveFrom is a creative collective founded by Sir Jony in 2019 with studios in London and San Francisco. 

The history behind the emblem is equally fascinating. The crown featured in the design is based on St Edward’s Crown, which has been used in every British coronation since 1661. The sceptre represents royal authority and sovereignty and is often carried by monarchs during important ceremonies. 

Organising a coronation event is a momentous occasion that requires careful planning and attention to detail. Customised clothing can add an extra touch of elegance and sophistication to the event. Our range of customisable clothing options, including t-shirts, jackets, hoodies, hats and more, can be designed to incorporate the Coronation emblem or any other design of your choice. This will not only enhance the visual appeal of the event but also create a sense of unity among attendees. Your personalised clothing can also serve as a memorable keepsake for guests to cherish long after the event has ended. 

The tea towel has become synonymous with British culture and tradition. They are not only functional but also serve as a decorative item that can be displayed in any home. Our customisable tea towels offer an affordable option for those looking to purchase royal memorabilia without breaking the bank. They make great souvenirs or gifts for visitors to the coronation event or for those who simply want to show their support for the new reign. Tea towels are sure to be a hit with customers looking for a timeless piece of memorabilia from this historic occasion. 

Ready to get started?

So, whether you’re planning on attending one of King Charles III’s coronation events or simply want to show your support from afar, consider incorporating this iconic emblem into your wardrobe. With so many options available for customisation, you’ll be able to create something truly unique that celebrates this historic moment in time.

Design your own clothing products for the Qatar 2022 Football World Cup

Your designs for the 2022 Football World Cup

This year’s Football World Cup is certainly going to be different, instead of being held at the height of the British summer, it’s taking place in the heat of Qatar and so it’s taking place in late Autumn when everyone is getting ready for Christmas. The average temperate for November in Qatar is 25.6°C so whilst the players and those travelling to Qatar will be sweltering in the heat. At home we could be up to our necks in the snow with average temperatures at Wembley stadium being a low of 4°C.

The weather is going to be rather cool whilst supporting at home, instead of T-Shirts, what about creating World Cup hoodies?
The AWDis Just Hoods Varsity hoodie comes in a range of contrast colours to suit almost any team.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!

If you’re looking for a way to pay tribute to your squad this winter, think about the time of year first. Avoid thin t-shirts and go for warm, cosy, comforting products such as sweatshirts and hoodies. The World Cup final will be held on 18 December, exactly one week before Christmas Day, so if you have ideas for a festive crossover, go for it! A world cup themed Christmas jumper would make an excellent wardrobe addition that can continue to be worn well into the festive season.

How about creating your own World Cup themed Christmas Jumper?

We can’t print that!

So if you are looking to create some designs that celebrate the tournament ahead, whether you are creating one-off items for personal use or a range of merch you’d like to gift or sell, tread carefully around copyright limitations. 

Off-limits: Qatar 2022, FIFA, 3 Lions, England Football

Football is a global industry full of tightly regulated and vigorously protected trademarks (England FootballFIFA and Qatar 2022 for example). No matter how frustrating it may feel, you just can’t put the Three Lions logo or World Cup iconography on your garments. 

Essentially, you need to make sure that you couldn’t possibly be accused of ‘passing off’, or fraudulently claiming endorsement. Passing off is where you make a product that could be misinterpreted as official England Football or World Cup merchandise (in other words, avoid knock off and lookalike products). You also can’t suggest that your products have been endorsed by England Football, FIFA or the World Cup in any way. 

What we can print

As a rule of thumb, when you’re designing your garments, you can use national flags and generic iconography (footballs, goals, boots and so on). 

England’s flag — a simple St George’s Cross (red on white) — is not a copyright-protected design, nor is that of the Welsh flag. 

Using flags and team colours is a great way to create an expressive design

There are also plenty of royalty-free football-themed illustrations that you can use. Goals, footballs, gloves, pitch markings, gloves and boots are all staples for football-themed clothing and accessories. Once again, the golden rule is that you are up-front and honest in how you design your products. There should be no risk of consumers misinterpreting your goods as official England Football merchandise. 

Accessorise with team colours

Stay even warmer by adding scarfs and beanies in your team colours

So what are you going to create for this spectacular event?

Kick-off is on Sunday 20 November. England play their first match against Iran on Monday 21 Nov at 13:00, followed by Wales playing the USA at 19:00 the same day. 

For businesses like ours, it’s already the busiest time of the year, with the added expectation for world cup related orders we suggest you get your products designed and orders in as soon as possible.

Get behind your favourite teams, enjoy the event and let’s hope we can bring it home.

A glorious summer of festivals

A glorious summer of festivals

Festival season is about to get underway. And this year, seeing as we are all allowed to party again, festivals are going to feel better than ever.

This summer you can see everyone from Lewis Capaldi to Diana Ross, and every genre in-between. Find the perfect festival for you with the Ticketmaster Festival Finder.

For the festival retailer

Did somebody say merch? No matter how big or small the event, festival-goers will always be on the lookout for the official merchandise. The staple of any festival of course is the T-shirt. Don’t miss the opportunity to sell your instagrammable festival wear.

The Budget T-shirts

Everyone has a budget, and we have products to match your requirements. We recommend Fruit of the Loom T-shirts that can be screen printed with your designs for large runs. But with over 500 T-shirt styles to choose from, we are bound to find something to suit your needs.

The Tie-dye T-shirts

There aren’t many festivals you can go to without seeing some of that festival favourites, the tie-dye T-shirt. We have a range of tie-dye shirts in various colour schemes to perfectly suit your event.

The Sustainable T-shirts

The trend for sustainable clothing has a natural home at festivals. The average festival-goer understands the impact they are having on their planet, and amongst those most likely to be doing something about it. Vendors that don’t carry sustainable lines in 2022 will stand out from the rest, and most likely be avoided because of it. Give your customers a choice and make sure you have sustainable products on sale.

Looking to place a large order?

The website has pricing for up to 1000 garments and is the best place for you to order, if you are looking for more than that (and yes we can produce thousands) then please get in touch for custom pricing.

Your unique festival get-up
