Educational: Embroidery vs Digital Print (Which Should You Choose?)

12 February, 2026 by Olivia Murray

When it comes to branded uniforms and promotional apparel, two of the most popular decoration methods are embroidery and digital print. Both look great, but they serve different purposes depending on how your garments will be used, your logo style, and the image you want to present to customers. Embroidery is known for its premium, professional finish. Your logo is stitched directly into the garment using coloured threads, creating a textured and durable result. This makes embroidery ideal for polos, business shirts, jackets, and caps where you want a more corporate or upmarket appearance. Embroidered logos also hold up exceptionally well to frequent washing and long-term wear, making them a popular choice for uniforms worn daily. Digital print, on the other hand, is perfect for detailed, colourful designs. This method prints your artwork directly onto the fabric, allowing for gradients, fine lines, and full-colour images that are difficult to achieve with stitching. Digital print works particularly well for t-shirts, event shirts, promotional campaigns, and short runs where you want bold visuals and flexibility in design. The best choice often comes down to how the garment will be used. If your team needs durable, long-lasting uniforms that represent your brand in a professional setting, embroidery is a strong option. If you’re promoting a campaign, event, or short-term initiative, digital print gives you creative freedom and cost-effective branding. Let’s take a look into what we have recently created at Fully Promoted Camden. We’ve been producing a range of embroidered polos and jackets for local businesses who want a polished, consistent team look, alongside digitally printed t-shirts for promotions, community events, and staff wear. Seeing both methods in action helps business owners understand how each finish impacts the overall presentation of their brand. If you’re unsure which method is best for your business, we can guide you through the options and recommend the most suitable solution based on your logo, garments, and usage.
