Custom Embroidery in Calgary

Premium stitched logos for hats, jackets, polos, and corporate apparel — done right in Calgary.

Why Choose Wild Rose T-Shirt for Custom Embroidery?

Our #1 priority for custom embroidery is quality. In Calgary, it's not always easy to find a shop that can handle the full process in-house — from digitizing your logo to providing a preview before we stitch it onto your garments.

Embroidery is a technical process, and details like the garment type, stitch count, and thread selection make a huge difference in the final result. We take the time to simplify and optimize your logo for embroidery, choose the correct thread colors, and guide you through the process so everything looks clean, professional, and consistent.

The most common embroidered items we produce include hats, toques, jackets, hoodies, and bags. We also keep your details on file so reorders are easy and consistent for your next order.

Our minimum order quantity for embroidery is a suggested 12 pieces, but if you have something in mind that is less than that, we'd be happy to take a look to see if we can accommodate. We're happy to help figure out the best route for your project, whether it's in our wheelhouse or not.

How It Works

Logo Digitizing

We convert your artwork into an embroidery file (DST/EMB). Free digitizing included in many cases — especially for repeat orders.

Thread Selection

We match your brand colours to our thread palette and confirm with you before stitching begins.

Machine Embroidery

Your garments are hooped and run through our commercial embroidery machines for consistent, clean results.

Trim & Quality Check

Jump threads are trimmed, backing is cut, and each piece is inspected before packing your order.

Summary of Embroidery

Embroidery is a process that requires converting vector artwork into a DST embroidery file. Your logo needs to be carefully digitized depending on the garment type and fabric. In some cases, we can digitize your logo free of charge, especially when the same design needs to be adjusted for different garments.

What is stitch count? Stitch count is the total number of stitches in a design. It helps determine how long the embroidery machine will take to stitch your logo onto the garment (and it can affect pricing as well).

Embroidered apparel is extremely durable and built to last. When stitched on quality garments, embroidery can feel like a "lifetime" decoration. For clothing lines and workwear especially, embroidery is a great way to stand out, look professional, and offer a premium, long-lasting product — especially when you're creating custom pieces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you charge for digitizing?

In many cases, digitizing is included free of charge — especially when the same design is being adjusted for different garments. Ask us when you reach out.

What's the minimum order for embroidery?

We suggest 12 pieces as a minimum, but we're happy to discuss smaller quantities if you have something specific in mind.

What is stitch count and does it affect pricing?

Stitch count is the total number of stitches in a design. Higher stitch counts take longer to produce and can affect pricing. We'll let you know the count when we digitize your logo.

Can you embroider on hats?

Absolutely — hats and toques are our most popular embroidery items. Structured caps, dad hats, snapbacks, beanies — we do them all.

What file formats do you need?

A vector file (AI, EPS, SVG, or PDF) works best. We can also work from high-resolution PNG or JPG — we'll let you know if any artwork adjustments are needed.
