Service
Custom Embroidery on Polos, Hats, and Service Uniforms.
Managed locally through selected production partners. Minimums, color matching, timing, and protective-apparel requirements are confirmed in your quote.
How It Works
From logo to delivery, step by step.
Quote + file setup
Send your logo. We coordinate any production-ready embroidery file with the selected partner and confirm setup costs in your quote.
Proof + approval
We coordinate the proof or sample step available for your program. You approve the documented result before production starts.
Production handoff
The selected partner follows the approved garment, artwork, placement, and color specification.
Final handoff
We confirm the finishing and delivery options available for the approved program before production starts.
Placements
Where the logo goes.
Common placements that work across many garments. We will document the approved position in your proof and production specification.
Left chest
A common option. Final width depends on the garment, artwork, and approved proof.
Right chest
Mirror to LC, often used for name embroidery alongside left-chest logo.
Sleeve
Cap sleeve or full sleeve. Good for cert badges or secondary brand marks.
Back yoke / center back
For larger logos on jackets, hoodies, and outerwear.
Hat front
Available space depends on the cap construction and approved production file.
Hat side / back
Smaller secondary marks on cap side panels or rear strap area.
Pricing Logic
Stitch count can affect embroidery pricing.
Bigger or denser logos can require more thread and machine time. The partner confirms the production file and price in writing.
| Stitches | Category | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Lower stitch count | Simple mark | Bold shapes and limited detail may require fewer stitches. Quote required. |
| Moderate stitch count | Detailed mark | Fine type, multiple colors, and complex shapes can add stitches. Quote required. |
| Higher stitch count | Large or dense design | Large placements and dense fills can add production time. Quote required. |
The Buyer's Guide
Custom embroidery for Las Vegas teams and crews — what makes a program work long-term.
Embroidery gives polos, work shirts, jackets, caps, and bags a stitched finish. Suitability and care depend on the exact garment, thread, backing, and decoration specification. Bighorn Threads coordinates approved artwork and production through selected partners. Each order follows the written proof and quote.
Digitizing converts approved artwork into stitch-by-stitch production instructions. The file must account for the garment, size, thread, backing, and placement. Bighorn coordinates file preparation with the selected partner. The quote confirms any setup, reuse, and retention terms.
Left chest, sleeve, back yoke, and cap placements are common options. The available area varies by garment construction and size. The selected partner confirms dimensions in the proof. Specialty techniques require a separate written quote.
For FR-rated garments, every modification must follow the exact manufacturer's current instructions and the employer's safety program. Thread, backing, placement, and the complete decoration system can matter. We require the relevant specification and a production partner qualified for that work before coordinating a protective-apparel order.
For long-term programs, a company store can organize approved garments and decoration specifications.

FAQ
Embroidery questions, answered.
What's the minimum order for embroidery?
Minimums depend on the garment, decoration method, and selected production partner. Send the quantity you need and we will quote the available options.
How much does digitizing cost?
Setup costs depend on the artwork and selected production partner. The quote confirms file preparation, setup, reuse, and retention terms for the approved program.
Can you embroider on FR (flame-resistant) shirts without voiding the rating?
Protective apparel must follow the exact garment manufacturer's current instructions and the employer's safety program. We coordinate only after those requirements and the selected partner's qualifications are confirmed.
How long does an embroidery order take?
It depends on quantity, garment availability, artwork readiness, production capacity, and delivery. Tell us your deadline and we will quote the schedule the selected partner can support.
What thread colors can you match?
Available thread colors and color-matching tolerances depend on the selected production partner. The proof documents the approved color specification for that order.
Do you do name embroidery for service uniforms?
Name and title embroidery can be quoted when the selected partner supports it. We can organize the approved roster and placement details for managed reorders.
