Our in-house digitizer converts logo or idea into a stitch-ready format that our industrial embroidery machines use to decorate your garment.

Appliqué

Appliqué is the process of utilizing fabric pieces, vinyl, sequins, and embroidery to create a large, dimensional design that can cut down on stitch count, saving you money in the long run. Not just for large areas such as full back or full front designs, this technique is also great for left chest designs.

We can customize your design to fit your specific needs including a combination of materials such as felts, tackle twill, chenille, metallics, and print options for unique designs that will wow fans!

Screen Printing

Screen printing works well for vibrant designs or designs on dark colored apparel. The screen print process involves forcing ink through prepared screens of a fine silk mesh to create your design. This means only one color can be applied at a time to the garment so the number of colors is limited. Screen printing is generally used for quantities of 24 or more due to the setup required. This style is not ideal for small or intricate designs.

Digital Printing

Digital printing is a direct to garment process where inks are printed directly onto the product with the latest technology to ensure fantastic color saturation and sharp images. This cutting-edge process locks in color, making them completely machine washable. Band Shoppe offers digitally printed uniforms, flags, fabrics, along with our team wear options. There are no minimums or setup fees for digital printing.

Vinyl & Heat Transfers

Vinyl & Heat Transfers use a high-performance technology to create contour cut designs that are applied to garments using a heat-press. The heat-applied materials contain a heat-sensitive adhesive on one side so that when heat is applied, the material adheres to the garment. This technique is the same method typically used to apply team names and numbers to athletic uniforms. Vinyl and heat transfers are available in several options including classic vinyl, nylon, stretch, flocked, metallics, glitter, and more!

Rhinestones & Glitter

Add sparkle to your apparel with our custom glitter and rhinestone decoration! Rhinestones are available in three different sizes. We use our best judgment based on design unless specified otherwise. Additional rhinestone colors are available, along with rhinestuds and nailheads. Super Glitter makes a perfect addition to your rhinestone design.
