Embroidery - traditionally used in our sector to embroider a school sweatshirt or a plumber's polo, done right though it can still be a nice touch...Lyle and Scott have sold a few cardys off the back of it after all. And the techniques are more diverse than they were, with a few special stitch options, appliques and 3D raised effects.
We do need to have a look at your design though, in top secret confidence of course - partly to assess the stitch count, but sometimes if it's a smaller very detailed image, we might recommend a high definition badge, in a Lacoste kind of way.
Oh yes...embroidered details over background water based prints can be a nice touch .
