Custom FR shirts

A logo that does not cost you the arc rating

An FR shirt is certified as a whole garment, so anything added to it is part of what was tested — which is why ordinary thread or standard heat-transfer vinyl on arc-rated gear is a real problem rather than a technicality. We decorate FR to the manufacturer's emblem policy, with FR-compatible thread, and we tell you what that policy allows before you order. Send us the brand and style number you wear and we will come back with what fits.

All services
What we make

FR pieces we decorate

Tell us the brand and style number and we will tell you what its emblem policy allows before anything is ordered.

FR button-up work shirts

The utility and electrical standard. Pockets, a collar, an embroidered logo on one chest and a name on the other, all inside the emblem policy.

FR polos and knits

For techs who meet customers. A collar reads more professional than a work shirt, and a chest-sized stitched mark is what most policies allow most readily.

FR long sleeves and base layers

Daily-wear layers that get washed hard. Embroidery with FR-compatible thread is the only decoration that survives it.

FR outerwear

Jackets and hoodies for winter mornings and rooftops. Heavier garments, usually more generous placement allowances — we check the policy per style.

How people order

Two ways to work with us

Most jobs are one of these. Plenty of customers do both.

One Order, One Deadline

Bulk runs, done right

Camps, events, fundraisers, retreats, team tees, trade shows, a uniform rollout. You give us the date and the count — we print, stitch, fold, and have it ready when we said we would. No account manager, no runaround.

  • Screen printing from 48 · embroidery and DTF from 12
  • Free digital mockup before anything runs
  • We'll steer you to whichever method is actually cheaper

Corporate giftsTeam kit

Always Open

A store your team orders from

When the same gear goes out again and again — new hires, volunteers, a second campus, next season's crew — we build you a private store. Logo and colors on file, no minimums, everyone orders their own size and it ships to them.

  • No minimums at all through a store
  • Sizes collected once, never chased again
  • Ships to every employee, volunteer, or location

Uniform programs

Most of our store customers started with one bulk order. Start wherever you are — we'll tell you honestly which one fits, and whether we're the right shop for you at all.

How it works

From logo to loading dock in four steps

No account managers, no runaround. Here's how an order runs.

01

Send your logo

Vector art is ideal, but a rough logo is fine — we'll clean it up and tell you what we need.

02

Approve a mockup

We return a free digital mockup and a clear quote.

03

We make them

Embroidered or printed on our own machines — no outsourcing, no surprises on quality.

04

Pick up or ship

Folded, counted, and sorted by size on the date we promised. Local pickup or shipped to your door.

Why Heart & Hook

The easy part is the logo. We sweat the rest.

Anyone can slap a logo on a shirt. We obsess over the things that actually decide whether you order again.

In-house everything

Printing, embroidery, and DTF all happen under one roof, so we own the quality and the timeline.

Real humans on art

A designer touches every order. We fix blurry logos and flag problems before they hit a shirt.

Honest minimums

None at all through a store. For one-time orders: 48 pieces on screen printing, 12 on embroidery and DTF — we'll steer you to whatever's actually cheaper.

Reorders that match

We keep your logo digitized and your thread colors on file, so next year's order looks exactly like this year's.

Why FR gear has its own rules

An FR shirt is a tested system, not just a shirt. It is certified as a whole garment — fabric, thread, labels and all — so anything you add to it is part of what gets tested. Put ordinary polyester thread or standard heat-transfer vinyl on an arc-rated shirt and you have added something that melts, on top of a garment bought specifically because it will not. That is why the rules exist, and it is a worse outcome than no logo at all.

So every FR manufacturer publishes an emblem policy: what can be applied, where on the garment, how large, and with what thread and backing. The policies differ by brand and they are not suggestions — decorating outside them can void the garment's rating and, on a lot of them, the warranty with it.

We decorate FR to the manufacturer's emblem policy, and we will tell you what it says before you order. If your logo does not fit inside what your brand allows, you will hear that from us up front rather than after it is stitched. And if we cannot do a job within the policy, we will say so — a shirt we were not willing to decorate properly is not a sale worth having.

  • FR-compatible thread — the logo has to be as flame-resistant as the shirt
  • Placement and size limits set by the garment maker, not by us
  • No standard heat-transfer vinyl on arc-rated gear — it melts, which is the whole problem
  • Rating classes differ: flash-fire and arc-rated are not the same certification
  • Tell us the brand and style number — the policy follows the garment

Where the logo goes on an FR shirt

Within what the policy allows, the layout that works is the same one that works on any work shirt: your logo on the left chest, about 3 to 4 inches wide, and the tech's first name on the right chest. A name is the cheapest trust upgrade there is, and on a crew where everyone is in identical FR it is also the fastest way to tell who is who.

Most emblem policies are comfortable with chest-sized marks and much less comfortable with large backs, so a full back print is the thing most likely to come back as a no. If your company name needs to read from across a yard, we will usually get there with a larger chest mark or a policy-compliant back emblem rather than a print.

Embroidery with FR-compatible thread is the default here, and on daily-wear FR it is the right call anyway — stitching survives the industrial washing this gear gets, where a print would not. Where a brand's policy allows an FR-rated heat transfer instead, we will use it; what we will not do is substitute a standard transfer because it is easier.

What custom FR shirts cost

Honestly: the blank is most of the number, and FR blanks cost several times what a standard work shirt costs. That is the garment, not us — and it is why the decoration is rarely the thing worth optimising on an FR order.

For scale on the decoration side, an embroidered left-chest logo on a standard mid-range work polo lands in the low-$20s per piece all in, and the embroidery portion of that barely moves between a dozen pieces and a couple of hundred, because it is priced by your logo's stitch count. FR-compatible thread costs more than standard thread, so the decoration line is a little higher, but the shape is the same.

We quote every line up front — garment, decoration, FR thread, and digitizing separately — because on an order this size you should be able to see exactly what you are paying for. Digitizing is a one-time cost: after the first order the stitch file is on record and reorders run straight off it. And if the total lands high, tell us the budget and we will look at a different FR brand in the same rating rather than touch the spec.

Outfitting a crew — and the next hire

Embroidery starts at 12 pieces for a one-time run, which covers most crews outright, and orders run about two to three weeks from the approved mockup. FR blanks move more slowly through distribution than ordinary work shirts, so if yours is backordered you will hear it from us before you commit — on this gear, a tech without it does not work.

The harder problem is the hire in October when the last order was in March. An online company store solves it: your approved FR garments and policy-compliant logo sit at a private link, the new tech orders his own size with no minimum, and it matches the rest of the crew because it is the same saved file stitched the same way.

We decorate FR for electrical contractors, utility and construction crews, and manufacturing and maintenance teams across Arizona, and ship anywhere. If visibility is the requirement rather than flame resistance, that is our custom hi-vis shirts page instead — and a fair number of crews need both. The fuller write-up on decorating for electrical work is in our electrician uniforms guide. Otherwise, send us your logo plus the brand and style number of the FR shirt you wear and we will come back with what the policy allows, a free mockup, and a straight quote.

Questions

Custom FR Shirts FAQs

The questions we get asked most — answered straight.

Can you embroider a logo on FR shirts?
Yes, with FR-compatible thread and backing, applied to the garment manufacturer's emblem policy. That policy sets what can go on the shirt, where, and how big, and it differs by brand — so send us the brand and style number along with your logo and we will tell you what it allows before you order anything.
Does putting a logo on an FR shirt void the rating?
It can, which is exactly why this is worth doing carefully. An FR garment is certified as a whole system, so anything applied to it becomes part of what was tested. Standard polyester thread or ordinary heat-transfer vinyl on arc-rated gear adds something that melts to a garment bought because it will not. Decorated within the manufacturer's emblem policy using FR-compatible materials, the rating holds.
How much do custom FR shirts cost?
The blank is most of the number — FR garments cost several times a standard work shirt, which is the garment rather than the decoration. On the decoration side, embroidery is priced by your logo's stitch count so it stays fairly flat across quantities, and FR-compatible thread runs a little above standard. We quote garment, decoration, thread, and digitizing as separate lines so you can see where the money goes.
Is there a minimum order for FR shirts?
Embroidery starts at 12 pieces for a one-time order. Through a company store there is no minimum, which is how most crews handle replacements and new hires — one shirt at a time, stitched from the same saved file so it matches.
Can you put a back print on an FR shirt?
Sometimes, and it is the request most likely to come back as a no. Most emblem policies are comfortable with chest-sized marks and restrictive about large backs. If your company name needs to read from a distance, we will usually get there with a larger chest mark or a policy-compliant back emblem instead of a print — and we will tell you which before you order.
What is the difference between FR and arc-rated clothing?
They are related but not the same certification. Flame-resistant fabric resists ignition and will not continue burning; arc-rated garments are additionally tested and assigned a rating for the energy of an electrical arc flash. Work around live electrical is usually specified by arc rating, so check what your site or safety plan actually requires — and tell us, because the emblem policy follows the garment either way.
Do you supply the FR garments or just decorate ours?
Either. We can source FR blanks and decorate them, or decorate gear you already own — tell us the brand and style number so we can check its emblem policy first. If we cannot do the job within that policy, we will say so rather than do it anyway.
