NEEDLE & THREADNEEDLE & THREAD

The embroidery process uses needle and thread to embellish products with your logo. Embroidery is precise, professional, and long-lasting, making it an attractive decoration method. Please note that the final price is based upon the logo stitch count (base pricing includes one custom logo up to 10,000 stitches). Custom name personalization can be added for an additional $10 per piece.

ADDITIONAL DECORATION METHOD

Cheers To Gear offers multiple embellishment options to decorate products with your custom logo. Although embroidery is the most popular decoration method, our other decoration methods include screen printing, heat transfers, and laser engraving. Embellishment method is determined dependent on the product it is being applied to.

THE DESIGN GUIDE

SCREEN PRINTING

Screen printing is a decoration method used for creating custom t-shirts in bulk and involves layering ink to create a desired design. This method is most cost effective for runs of 48+ units that include logos with fewer colors (this is due to the screen setup). The base price listed includes a 1-color logo for this decoration method. Final pricing for your order will be based upon the number of colors in your custom logo.

HEAT TRANSFER

The heat transfer method involves applying an ink-based design to the product with a heat press machine. This method is best for smaller order sizes and allows for more flexibility. The final price will be based upon the quantity, print size, and number of colors in your custom logo.

LASER ENGRAVING

The laser engraving process is used for the decoration of custom YETI drinkware. The laser engraving method involves a laser machine engraving your logo onto the surface of YETI products. Make your custom YETI yours with a custom name or custom initial personalization. Name personalization is available as a custom request for an additional cost.
