If your mascot will work every season and be washed regularly, go with embroidery; if you want a bold, flat logo or short text, flock does the job. You choose the spot on the product page, then confirm the look on the sketch before we start making it.
Quick decision guide
- Does the costume go to many winter and summer events and get washed often? Embroidery suits that routine.
- Is your logo a big shape in one or two solid colours, or a few simple words? Flock is a good fit.
- Not sure? Send the logo and we will recommend one of the two before production.
What each one looks like
Side-by-side table
| Feature | Flock | Embroidery |
|---|---|---|
| Finish | Level, velvet-feel surface, a single even shade | Thread is visible and slightly raised |
| Small features | Made for simple outlines and big solid fields | Extra-thin lines are made simpler, since a thread has a minimum width |
| Washability | Good, provided our care advice is followed | Very good, with threads stitched right into the fabric |
| How many colours | Perfect for one or two bold colours | A number of colours are possible, one thread for each |
| Usual spots | Large logos on the front or back, plain text | Logos on the head, shoulders or knees, embroidered names |
How the approval works
With the 2D sketch and approval proof, you see where the logo sits on the mascot drawing. You accept it in writing, and production starts after that. A separate guide covers the steps in more detail.
Sending your logo
Choose a vector file (SVG, AI, EPS or PDF) to get the best outcome with either method. Our logo guide gives the formats we take and the places a logo can go.
Answers for teams and businesses
Will embroidery add to the cost compared with flock?
Pricing follows the size, the colours and the position. You will find it in the quote or in the product option.
Can one mascot carry both?
Yes, for instance a big flocked logo on the front and a stitched name on the shoulder. Tell us your choices in the quote request.
Is the result an exact copy of my file?
It stays faithful to the drawing and colours. With embroidery, very fine details are sometimes simplified, and you approve the result on the sketch.
Do you take custom ideas, not only logos?
Yes. We build custom mascots from a logo, an idea, a sketch or photos.
