Embroidery for hoodies, polos and hats
Most tee orders come with a few pieces that should be stitched instead: the manager's polo, staff quarter-zips, the hats. Battle Born Clothing embroiders in-house on two single-head commercial machines (a Happy HCD2-1501 and a YunFu 15-needle) with Rapos thread and Maggie magnetic frames in Yerington, Nevada.

Questions
Do tees and hoodies count together for the embroidery price?
Yes. The tier is counted on the whole order with the same logo, mixed styles included.
Can you embroider the shirts you screen print?
Yes. A left-chest embroidered logo and a back screen print on the same hoodie is a normal order; each method is priced at its own rate.
Do you keep my digitized file?
Yes. Reorders skip the $18.99 digitizing fee.
