Embroidery on t-shirts (Türkiye)
Branded embroidery on t-shirts in Türkiye — Turkish lira pricing, runs from 50 units, same- or next-day in İstanbul; 2–4 days to Ankara, İzmir and Anatolia.
Why this combination works
The embroidery × t-shirts pairing hinges on substrate and placement. The 150–200 gsm cotton/poly substrate takes embroidery well, and the decoration zone (chest, back, sleeve) is generous enough for a shaped logo. In Turkey, this is a proven combination and ships with minimal iteration.
Models and materials that fit
The t-shirt substrate is 150–200 gsm cotton/poly; embroidery needs textile: hoodies, polos, caps, bags. The match is good, and we treat chest, back, sleeve as the working canvas for the logo. In Turkey we spec models to match the segment.
Prints and branding approaches
Artwork-wise we take vector (AI/EPS/PDF outlined) and 300+ dpi raster. On colour: thread palette up to 15 colours per design. Decoration runs 7–10 days including digitising and uses chest, back, sleeve as the working zone.
Bundling and packaging
Packaging plays on a t-shirt as much as the logo. A signed kraft sleeve is enough for a welcome kit; for client t-shirts with embroidery we add an embossed box, ribbon and a personalised card.
Runs, lead times, and budgets
Budget for t-shirts with embroidery rolls up material, method, run size. From 30 units; digitising is one-off. Above 100 units from Istanbul we apply volume pricing; quotes are in TRY.
Türkiye context
Türkiye demand concentrates around banks and fintech, automotive tier-1s and OEMs, textile and home-goods exporters, hospitality chains, and defence / aerospace primes, with seasonal peaks driven by Cumhuriyet Bayramı (29 October), Ramazan and Kurban Bayramı gifting, and the İstanbul fair season.
