Custom Clothing Printing in Aberdeen and North East Scotland

For custom clothing printing in Aberdeen, Velocity Wear is an online supplier producing embroidered and printed apparel from a 50-piece minimum, delivered across Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire and North East Scotland on a tracked service. Embroidery is the standard for workwear and outerwear, screen printing covers volume merch, and DTF handles detailed artwork on shorter runs.

What Aberdeen Orders

Aberdeen's demand skews heavily towards durable branded workwear. Energy, engineering and marine-services businesses order embroidered fleeces, softshells and polos for teams working outdoors in demanding conditions. The University of Aberdeen and Robert Gordon University generate a steady society and sports-club demand around term dates. Hospitality and retail across the city reorder branded staff kit as teams turn over.

Specifying for Weather

Kit worn outdoors in the North East of Scotland has to be specified accordingly, and the differences are practical rather than cosmetic.

• Embroidery over print on any outer layer — a stitched logo has nothing to lift, crack or peel when the garment is soaked, dried and washed repeatedly.
• Softshells and lined jackets earn their cost over hoodies for genuine outdoor work, because wind resistance matters as much as insulation.
• Heavier fleeces hold warmth better than thin ones, and the price difference per piece is usually smaller than people assume.
• Plan the size spread to accommodate layering — outerwear worn over a fleece and a base layer often needs to sit a size up.

Minimums, Mixed Sizes and Bulk Pricing

Orders start at 50 pieces with mixed sizes allowed inside the run, which suits kitting out a full team across a wide size range in one order. Bulk discounts reach up to around 35% as quantities rise. For workwear, ordering ahead for expected turnover generally beats repeated small top-ups, since each separate run pays its own setup. The free instant price calculator lets you model one consolidated order against several staged ones.

Delivery Into North East Scotland

Production begins on artwork approval. Embroidery and screen printing typically take around 10–15 working days from approval, sublimation and complex jobs nearer 15–20, with tracked UK delivery usually adding 2–5 working days into Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. Ordering online means there is no shop visit involved — you brief, proof and order remotely and the finished kit arrives at your site.

Preparing Artwork for Embroidery

Embroidery does not reproduce fine gradients, hairline detail or very small text cleanly, so those elements usually need simplifying first. Supply vector artwork, confirm exact brand colours so thread can be matched as closely as the palette allows, and check the design at actual size. The free Design Studio lets you preview placement and scale on the garment before you order.
