4. Embroidery
Embroidery is one of the most common techniques used for golf polo logos. Different coloured logos can be embroidered on the embroidery machine using different coloured threads.
Advantages：
- Long-lasting and durable.
- Stand out with a unique design.
Disadvantages：
- Expensive
- The details of the pattern are too small to be embroidered.
- If embroidered on a soft fabric, the logo will easily wrinkle around it.
- During the embroidery process, the stitches will run directly through to the reverse of the fabric, which can be uncomfortable on the skin if the embroidered logo is large. To solve this issue, some fabric is usually carried on the reverse side of the embroidery to make it more comfortable.
Usually the logo is embroidered on the left chest, back collar, sleeves etc.
