When harsh snow falls across The Mountain State, local businesses know keeping their hardworking crew warm and representing their brand goes hand in hand. Whether outfitting a trade contractor crew or a small business staff, investing in quality gear is essential.


For the best results, you need a solid strategy for your custom printed winter apparel.


Great winter gear starts with matching the right garments to the right print techniques. Here is a breakdown of how to pair your winter apparel with the best application methods for the cold:

  • Custom Hoodies (Screen Print & Embroidery): For everyday warmth, heavy cotton-polyester hoodies are a job site staple. Consider whether your team needs the versatility of zip-ups for fluctuating temperatures or the solid warmth of pullovers. Both screen printing and embroidery are fantastic choices that hold up incredibly well on this fabric. However, avoid DTF prints in the cold, as freezing temperatures can sometimes reduce the flexibility of DTF transfers.


  • Heavy Winter Jackets (Stick with Embroidery): For extreme weather, heavy jackets with insulated linings and water-resistant outer shells are an absolute must. While jackets can sometimes be printed, embroidery is almost always better. The textured, weather-treated surfaces of winter coats don't hold ink well, but a high-quality embroidered logo looks premium and withstands sleet, snow, and heavy wear.


  • Knit Beanies (Embroidery Only): Do not forget the winter accessories! Knit beanies are universally loved by crews, trap essential body heat, and keep your company logo highly visible at eye level. Because of the stretchy, ribbed knit fabric, beanies can only be embroidered. Ink will crack and stretch out of proportion, so thread is the only viable option for headwear.


The right combinations of garments and applications keep your team comfortable and your logo remarkably sharp all season long. If you need expert guidance producing your next batch of Custom Printed Winter Apparel, partnering locally makes all the difference. When it comes to the reliable apparel printing Beckley WV businesses trust, GraphicsWV has you fully covered from head to toe.
