Custom Embroidered Jackets & Coats: A Straight-Talking Guide for UK Teams

Last reviewed: 17 August 2026 · Written and reviewed by the Xcel Print & Promotions team

Never ordered embroidered Jackets & Coats before? You’ve probably got questions. What’s it cost. Will the logo come out right. How long’s the wait. We’ll answer the lot here. No jargon, just honest answers from people who do this every day.

Why Go Embroidered?

It Lasts

Print cracks. It peels. Given enough washes it fades. Embroidery doesn’t do any of that, because the logo is stitched straight into the fabric. It’s there to stay. We’ve had embroidered logos still looking sharp after hundreds of washes, and that’s not us talking it up. It genuinely holds.

It Looks the Part

There’s a depth to embroidery that flat print can’t touch. Run your finger over a stitched logo and you can feel it. Your customers clock it as well, even if they couldn’t tell you exactly why your team suddenly looks more polished.

It Handles Nearly Anything

Logos, names, job titles, small icons, we can stitch the lot. Usual spots are left chest, right chest, sleeve, and back. Most designs up to roughly 15,000 stitches come out great. That covers simple text right through to a detailed company logo.

How It Works

It’s simple:

  1. Pick your Jackets & Coats from our range
  2. Send us your logo. We take most formats (PNG, JPG, PDF, AI, EPS, SVG)
  3. We send a free proof so you see exactly how it’ll look
  4. You approve, we embroider, and it’s dispatched within 5-7 working days

That’s the whole thing. No faff, no minimum order, no hidden fees.

Embroidery or Printing?

Both earn their keep. Embroidery wins on durability and that premium feel, so it’s our first pick for Jackets & Coats with a chest logo. Printing is better for big designs, full-colour artwork, or hi-vis where embroidery isn’t practical. On the fence? Give us a shout and we’ll tell you straight which way to go.

Embroidery Questions Answered

How much does embroidery on Jackets & Coats cost?

It comes down to the stitch count (basically the design size) and how many you’re ordering. Small chest logos are the cheapest way in. You’ll get exact pricing with every free quote. No surprises later.

Can you embroider names as well as logos?

Yes. Individual names, job titles, department names, whatever you need. And we can pair your logo with personalised text on the same garment.

Will embroidery damage the fabric?

No. Our machines are set up for each fabric type, and we back the stitching to support it. The garment ends up looking and feeling exactly as it should.
