How to Choose the Right Custom Printed T-Shirt
Logo t-shirts are designed to be a staple for your workwear wardrobe, and when it comes to everyday wear, selecting the right option is critical. Here are our top five tips for choosing the right printed t-shirts:
- Choose the right fabric
Opt for a material that matches your industry and requirements. For example, construction, trades and more physical work may want to consider a more durable material.
- Consider fit and style
Think about your staff and their comfort. Your team will be wearing their custom logo t-shirts for long periods, so make sure they fit comfortably while reflecting your company, team or event style.
- Select the best branding method
We offer a choice between quality DTF printing or high-grade embroidery. Printing tends to be better suited to large, complex branding and graphics and is often more cost-effective. Embroidery is perfect for simpler designs, and gives a more premium finish.
- Think about logo placement
You can choose from a range of logo printing locations, including front, back, arms and nape. Select the best placement depending on your designs and application.
- Set Your Budget and Order Quantity
Different materials and t-shirt printing options come with varying costs. Bulk t-shirt printing is a great way to bring prices down, and larger orders are more cost-effective. Plan ahead and place bulk orders wherever possible.

FAQs: Custom Printed T-Shirts
What’s the difference between printed and embroidered shirts?
The difference between printed and embroidered shirts is the customisation method. Printed t-shirts use printing methods such as DTF to apply a design to a blank t-shirt like ink on paper. Embroidered t-shirts have a design stitched onto them using thread. Printed t-shirts are usually a better choice for larger, bolder or more complex designs and tend to be more cost-effective. Embroidered t-shirts provide a higher quality, more durable finish but are not as well suited to complex designs and tend to be more costly.
How long does custom t-shirt printing take?
Custom t-shirt printing with The Funky Peach takes anywhere between five and ten working days depending on the service you choose. We offer an express service for faster turnarounds, and all orders are dispatched via our next working day courier.
What other custom workwear can I order with t-shirts?
As well as custom t-shirts, we also offer a range of other personalised workwear, including polo shirts, hoods, gilets and bodywarmers, hi-vis workwear, headwear and jackets. You can bundle your printed or embroidered t-shirts with any other items from our range for cost-effective bulk order discounts.
Can I order embroidered t-shirts in bulk?
Yes, you can order embroidered or printed t-shirts in bulk. We keep large stocks of high-quality t-shirts at our Dorset HQ, allowing us to provide quick turnarounds for orders of all sizes.
Is there a minimum order limit for t-shirts?
The minimum order size for custom t-shirts is one. Whether you need a single item or a few hundred, we can provide quick, quality results.
What t-shirt is best for daily workwear?
The best t-shirt for daily workwear will depend on your industry, working environment and preferences.
