Embroidery Placements

Shirts:
Shirt with no pocket - Left chest or right chest position
  • Find a horizontal line at the center of the armholes, from armpit to shoulder, and then find a vertical line from the neck/shoulder seam.  Where the two points meet would be the center of the design.  If you place this line too low, the design may go across a woman's breast area. 
  • Another option is to use the horizontal line at the level of the second button or snap.
  • On a v-neck shirt, use the horizontal line even with the bottom of the v as a guide.
  • Center of design should go where lines intersect.
  • A general guideline is:
    • Women's: 7-8" down, 4 to 6" from center of placket
    • Men's:  7.5 to 9" down, 4 to 6" from center of placket
Hints/Tips:
If you are putting the person's name and logo on two sides, the name should go on the right, and the logo should go on the left.  Rationale:  When you shake hands, your eye naturally falls to the other person's right shoulder/chest area.  If the name is on the right, you're more likely to remember it.
