Customize Your Clothing
Customizing clothing with a logo is popular for many reasons. Custom t-shirts, golf shirts & various styles of custom clothing and promo giveaways are an excellent promotional tool, a great way of encouraging team spirit and a fun way of getting people involved with your brand, organization, school or sports club.
Customizing clothing with a logo may sound simple enough, but you need to decide where to place the logo if you decide to design your own shirt, for instance. Much of this decision can depend on your reasons for deciding on customization in the first place. We’re going to take a look at why using a logo can be a good idea, and how the reason for using the logo can help you decide where to place it.
Why Design Your Logo On Custom Clothing?
There are many reasons why you may decide to use your logo on clothing; here are some of the main advantages.
Marketing: Offering items such as t-shirts to customers as a free gift, can be an excellent idea for a business. If you place your logo on your shirts, you are basically hiring many mobile billboards, at an affordable price. Of course, this doesn’t just work for business, it’s also a great way of spreading awareness of organizations and sports clubs. You can also offer custom clothing as personalized gifts, to business associates.
Team Spirit: Whether in business, or for a sports team, having a logo on jerseys, t-shirts or bottoms can create a feeling of belonging and team spirit.
Promotion: As well as using logos on clothing for marketing, by giving clothing to customers, wearing clothing with logos at events provides an excellent opportunity for business or organization promotion.
Where Should You Place Your Logo?
We’ve taken a look at the potential reasons for using a logo to customize clothing. It’s important to consider how the location of your logo fits with some of these reasons. Let’s consider some of the most popular places to locate a logo or design on custom clothing.
Front of a t-shirt
A full front location is easily the most popular for logos on a t-shirt. This choice fits for all the reasons for customization we looked at. It’s an excellent marketing tool, as the logo is very visible when the t-shirt is worn. The same applies when the t-shirt is worn during promotional activities. Finally, having the same logo on the front of a shirt is great for team spirit, and not just in the conventional sense. Think of all those funny t-shirts for bachelor parties you’ve seen.
Left chest of a custom golf shirt
Customization of a golf shirt with a business or organization logo is very common, and is an excellent way of building team and corporate spirit. The most common location for this customization is the left chest. If you want to be a little alternative, then the right chest is also a possibility.
Hip or down the leg of bottoms
Many schools or sports organizations choose to customize bottoms such as sweatpants. Again, this is an excellent way of encouraging team spirit. The most popular place to add a logo to bottoms is on the right or left hip, or down the leg.
Front and back of athletic jerseys
Athletic wear, such as a jersey, is customized to encourage team spirit, and to market the team or club. Usually athletic wear is customized on both the front and back. Left chest and full front logos are both popular, usually with a team or club name and possibly a number, on the back.
