Chicago trading floors, agencies and restaurant groups order branded apparel that has to look sharp on a client-facing team — printed and embroidered by Velocity Wear, shipped across the Midwest.
MOQ 20 pieces · 10–15 working days production · priced in $ USD
Chicago runs on two economies that both buy apparel for different reasons: the trading firms, law offices and consultancies in the Loop, who need embroidered polos and quarter-zips that hold a crease on a client-facing team, and one of the strongest restaurant and bar scenes in the country, where staff kit takes a beating and gets replaced on a schedule. We produce both — durable embroidery for hospitality groups, clean corporate finishes for the towers — and ship across the Midwest.
