50-piece minimum per design · Mixed sizes · We never share your details
Stitch or print is decided by the artwork and the garment, not by taste. Here is how to choose for each piece in a uniform programme.
Sizes are mixed freely inside the 50, which makes the split entirely your decision. Here is how to make it without stranding stock.
Most uniform delays start with the artwork file. Here is exactly what to send, at what size, and who needs to approve the proof.
A reorder should look identical to the first run. Here is what makes that happen, and what to write down after the first order lands.
A sample costs £150 and comes back off the bulk order. Here is what to test on it before you commit fifty or five hundred pieces.
Labels are what separate a branded uniform from a decorated blank. Here are the options and how finished pieces actually arrive.
Delivery transit sits outside the production window, which is where most uniform date miscalculations come from. Here is the full picture.
Two uniform quotes are almost never comparing the same thing. Here are the questions that make them comparable before you commit.
One is stitched into the cloth, one sits on it. Here is how the two compare on uniforms at small and large quantities.
Screens scale with quantity; DTF does not care how many colours you have. Here is where each one wins on a uniform order.
Flat embroidery is the workhorse finish on a uniform programme; puff is a feature finish for caps and outer layers. Here is how to split them.
Cotton feels better in the hand. Poly blend holds its shape through a hundred washes. Which one belongs on your team depends on the shift.
The weight of a uniform fabric is the first thing anyone notices and the last thing most buyers specify. Here is how to choose between the two bands.
A December uniform refresh is an October decision. Count the working days backwards and the deadline becomes obvious well before it becomes urgent.
Promo week is the worst possible time to discover a uniform order is late. Work the calendar backwards and place it while the shop floor is quiet.
Freshers week arrives the same date every year and catches uniform buyers out anyway. July is when the September order has to be signed off.
A January staff intake is a November uniform decision, because December removes most of the working days you thought you had.
Summer events kit has to survive heat, dust and three days without a washing machine. That changes what you specify as much as when you order it.
Leavers season runs to a fixed end date, so the order has to go in while the spring term still has room in it. Here is the working-back sum.
A tour has one date that cannot move. Uniform ordering for one is entirely an exercise in counting backwards from the opening night.
On a trade show stand your team is the signage. Here is how far ahead to order uniform for one, and what actually reads from ten metres away.
GSM is the single number that best predicts how a uniform will feel, wear and ship. Here is how to read it without over-reading it.
A uniform that does not fit gets left in a locker. Here is how the three common cuts size up on a real team, and how to split the order.
Brand colour on fabric behaves nothing like brand colour on screen. Here is what is achievable across a uniform programme and what is not.
Placement decides whether a uniform logo is seen or hidden under an apron bib. Here are the positions and sizes that work on real staff kit.
Uniform is the hardest-washed clothing most businesses own. What you specify at order stage decides how it looks after a hundred cycles.
The neck label is the one part of a uniform nobody looks at until it scratches. Here are the options on a bulk order and what each changes.
How an order is packed decides how long it takes to distribute. Say what you want at order stage and a week of sorting disappears.
Most problems with a bulk uniform order are findable in twenty minutes if you know where to look. Here is the inspection worth doing.
A first uniform order looks complicated from the outside and is six steps from the inside. Here is each one and what it needs from you.
Most uniform quotes come back as a range because the brief was vague. Here is what to send so the number you get back is the number you pay.
A uniform quote is short but dense. Knowing which line is the unit price and which costs sit outside it stops surprises at invoice stage.
A uniform budget built only from the per-piece price always comes up short. Here is every line that lands on the final invoice.
Reselling uniforms means pricing from your landed cost, not from the quote. Here is how the stack builds and where margin usually leaks.
The order arrives in boxes by size. Turning that into kit on the right people is a separate job worth planning before delivery day.
Front of house, kitchen and bar rarely wear the same thing, which is what makes a restaurant uniform budget harder than it looks.
Opening dates move; production windows do not. Here is how far ahead a restaurant needs to commit to get kit on the floor in time.
Hospitality turnover is high and rotas change monthly. The size split has to survive both, which rules out ordering strictly to headcount.
A service shirt gets washed hot and often. That single fact decides most of the print-versus-embroidery argument in hospitality.
A sample costs £150 and comes off the bulk invoice. For a venue about to kit out three departments, that is a cheap dress rehearsal.
A second run has to match the first well enough that nobody notices. Here is what makes that likely and what makes it a gamble.
Site kit gets destroyed faster than office kit. Costing a trade uniform means costing the replacements as well as the first run.
Site starts move at short notice. A workwear order cannot, so the two have to be planned against each other rather than in sequence.
A crew size curve runs larger than an office one, and layering pushes it further. Ordering to the office curve leaves boxes unopened.
Site kit gets abraded, sun-bleached and washed hot. Decoration that looks sharp in a catalogue does not always survive any of that.
One garment tested on site for a fortnight tells you more about a workwear spec than any amount of catalogue reading.
Site kit burns through faster than anything else in a uniform programme, so the reorder is the run that really defines the budget.
Office programmes look cheaper than they are, because the recurring onboarding kit is the line most budgets leave out.
