Left chest logo digitizing for uniforms and polos

A left chest logo is the most common embroidery order and also one of the trickiest. At 3.5 to 4 inches wide, small text and fine lines have almost no room. We digitize left chest files so lettering stays readable, outlines do not clog and the fabric lies flat after washing.

What you get

  • Readable small text

    We rebuild tiny lettering with the right stitch width so it does not close up or fuzz.

  • Light on the fabric

    Lower density and the right underlay keep polos and scrubs soft and prevent puckering.

  • Simplified where needed

    We tell you when a detail cannot survive at that size and suggest a version that does.

  • Repeatable results

    The same file stitches the same way on every garment in a big uniform order.

    Patch Digitizing questions

    Do you make the physical patches?

    No. We create the digitized stitch file and vector art you need to produce patches on your own machines or with your supplier.

    What border style do you digitize?

    Satin borders sized for your edge. Tell us your border width in the notes.

    Can you digitize a patch from a small logo?

    Yes. We often redraw the logo as vector art first so the stitch file follows clean edges.

    Can patches include 3D puff?

    Yes. Raised lettering can be added to a patch design.
