If your team’s shirts are getting washed every other day (or nightly during busy weeks), durability matters most. A simple printed logo holds up well on tees for everyday rotation, while stitching is a strong choice on polos and hats for a more finished FOH look. For detailed artwork or smaller batches, transfer-style decoration can also be a practical option when you want clean results without turning it into a huge run.

It depends on what your team wears day-to-day. Stitching usually looks best on polished guest-facing pieces like polos, button-downs, and hats—great for managers and hosts. Printing is often the go-to for bulk staff tees and back prints that need to read fast during a rush.

Not always—and most operators prefer they don’t. FOH usually needs a cleaner, guest-facing look, while BOH needs comfort and durability for heat, movement, and frequent washing. A simple system works well: FOH polos or fitted tees, BOH tees, and a separate manager look—still cohesive, but built for real roles.

Yes. Names and roles are common for catering teams, banquets, and training weeks. We can place identifiers on the chest, sleeve, or upper back—like “Manager,” “Bar,” “Kitchen,” or “Catering.” It’s easiest (and fastest) when roles are finalized before production so you’re not making last-minute edits.

For everyday wear, a left-chest mark is the cleanest placement—especially for FOH. If you need staff to be recognizable from a distance (events, patio service, shift-change chaos), a back print helps a lot. Sleeve marks are useful when aprons or jackets cover the front. We’ll recommend placements based on how your team actually moves through service.

Keep it simple and high contrast. A clean left-chest mark plus a readable back print works best in dim lighting, breweries, and nighttime service. Avoid tiny lines and overly detailed artwork that disappears under low light or motion behind the bar.

Yes. Bulk pricing typically improves when you’re ordering for multiple roles (FOH, BOH, managers) or stocking extras for hiring and turnover. Ordering in volume is one of the easiest ways to get consistent uniforms at a better per-item cost—without redoing designs every time someone new joins.

This is exactly why we save your specs. Once your uniforms are approved, we keep the artwork, placement sizes, and garment details on file so new hires match the original run. That way your reorders don’t turn into “close enough”—they stay consistent across teams and seasons.

Absolutely. Aprons are great for service teams, baristas, and kitchen staff because they’re visible, practical, and easy to standardize. We’ll help you choose a placement that stays visible during service (not hidden by straps, pockets, or ties), especially when staff are moving fast during rushes.

For real restaurant wear—heat, stains, and constant washing—blends are usually the most reliable. Cotton feels great but can show wear faster in heavy rotation. Performance blends can be helpful for BOH or high-movement roles. If you’re building a full set, we’ll recommend fabric types based on kitchen conditions, FOH presentation, and how often you replace items.

Sometimes, yes—especially for openings, pop-ups, and catering deadlines. Rush success usually depends on quick proof approval, clean size submission, and in-stock garments. If the timeline is tight, we’ll tell you what’s realistic and suggest the fastest decoration approach based on your design.

Two things prevent almost every problem: a proof-first approval and a clean size list. Most mistakes happen when sizes come in through texts, roles change mid-order, or garments switch last minute. If you’re ordering for FOH/BOH, labeling the size sheet by role also makes sorting on delivery day much easier.

We design for real viewing conditions—distance, low light, motion, and aprons covering parts of the shirt. Small changes like thicker lines, cleaner type, and stronger contrast can make a logo readable without making it loud. The goal is clarity during service, not flashy graphics.

Yes—and most restaurants do. A common setup is tees for BOH, polos for FOH leads, hats for consistency, and aprons for service or kitchen. We keep branding aligned across the full set so uniforms look like a system, not random pieces.

If your logo is detailed or multi-color, a transfer-based approach is often a strong option—especially when you want flexibility on quantities and garment colors. Direct-to-garment can also work depending on the fabric and care expectations, but it’s more sensitive to garment choice. We’ll recommend the best route based on how the uniforms will be worn and washed.
