T-Shirt Printing and Embroidery in Leicester

Leicester is one of the most diverse cities in the UK, with a long history in textiles and knitwear that still shapes its economy today. It was also home to the UK's first local radio station, BBC Radio Leicester, which went on air in 1967. With professional football, rugby and cricket clubs, two universities and a strong base of independent businesses, there is plenty of need for printed clothing. We provide custom t-shirt printing, embroidery and branded merchandise across the city, with the experience to guide you through it.

What we print

Printed clothing and merchandise for Leicester.

Clothing for independent brands

Leicester's textile heritage lives on in its independent labels. Screen printing is the usual starting point for a brand's first collection, and garment finishing such as woven neck labels and swing tags gives it a retail feel.

Screen printed t-shirts

We have print houses all over the UK, so clients here get a quick turnaround on screen printing. It gives the best price per piece on larger orders, with a recommended minimum of 20 units per design.

Workwear and uniforms

From warehouses and distribution centres on the edge of the city to shops and restaurants in the centre, embroidered polos, sweatshirts and jackets give staff a consistent, professional look.

Festivals, clubs and community events

Leicester hosts one of the biggest Diwali celebrations outside India, along with a year round calendar of community and charity events. For volunteer teams and fundraisers, bulk printed t-shirts are the easiest way to be seen, and our charities page covers budget friendly options.

For local sports clubs, training tops, hoodies and supporters' kit can all be printed or embroidered, and our sports and events page covers the garments that suit team wear. If greener options matter to you, our guide to sustainable merchandise is worth a look.

Leicester's knitwear heritage makes custom socks a natural fit for local brands and clubs, and ours are knitted to your design rather than printed on afterwards. Students at the University of Leicester and De Montfort University order society hoodies and sweatshirts every autumn, while the warehouses and distribution centres along the M1 need work wear that copes with long shifts. For market traders and independent shops, branded bags keep your name in view long after the sale.
