Why Custom Polo Shirt Orders Are Harder Than They Look
A logo that looks sharp on screen can lose detail during embroidery. Fine text, thin lines, and gradients blur on a small left-chest placement, the standard spot for a polo. Many printers skip the proof entirely.
Merch Express digitizes every logo in-house and sends a stitch proof before production starts. Businesses that buy custom polo shirts through Merch Express see the placement first.
Turnaround matters too when a new hire starts before the next order. Merch Express has not missed a deadline in 10 years, and that streak still holds today.
Read more Read less
Choosing the right polo matters as much as the decoration. Standard pique knit holds its shape through daily office wear, tailored women's cuts fit closer through the waist and shoulders, and moisture-wicking performance blends suit coaching staff and outdoor event work.
Send us your logo in any format you have. Our team digitizes it in-house, sends back a proof showing thread colour and placement, and nothing goes into production until you sign off.
No Minimum Order
DTF printing carries no minimum quantity, so a single sample polo can be approved before a full office order goes to print.
Rush Production
2 to 9 business days on rush polo orders, plus same-day service for eligible orders at our Calgary facility.
Stitch Proof First
Every logo is digitized in-house, and a stitch proof showing placement and thread colour is sent before production starts.
Complete Custom Polo Shirts Across Canada
Merch Express produces every custom polo shirt in-house at our Calgary facility and ships to every Canadian province. Teams and offices across the country order custom polo shirts Canada wide through the same production floor that handles local orders. Every quote request receives a response within 1 hour. DTF printing carries no minimum quantity, so a single sample can be approved before a full office order goes to print. Businesses that buy custom polo shirts in Calgary can also pick up finished orders directly from our production facility.

Production Timelines
Standard production takes 10 business days from art approval to completion. Rush production is available in 2 to 9 business days for a 10% fee.
Submit Artwork & Quantity
Upload your logo files and specify the quantities you need across all sizes, cuts, and styles.
Approve Quote & Pay
Review your itemized quote, confirm the order, and complete payment to enter production.
Approve Stitch Proof
Review a proof showing thread colour and placement on the polo before a single piece is stitched or printed.
Track & Receive
Monitor order status through to pickup or delivery, with rush options when a start date is close.
Why Embroidery Takes Longer
Embroidery takes longer to set up than DTF, since each new logo needs its own digitized stitch file before production starts.

Available Decoration Methods
Decoration Methods
Each method produces a different finish. Match the method to the artwork, the polo, and the run size.
Embroidery
Stitches logos and text directly into the fabric for a raised, textured finish. That finish holds up better than printed ink on a collared shirt. Embroidery suits corporate polos, golf shirts, and any pique knit where a durable, professional finish matters most.
Screen Printing
Produces a durable, opaque finish for bulk orders with 1 to 4 solid ink colours. It suits large teams and event runs where every polo needs the exact same colour.
DTF (Direct-to-Film) Printing
Reproduces full-colour designs, photographs, and gradients with sharp detail. It works on any order size, including a single sample polo for approval before a full run.
No minimum order applies through DTF printing. A single sample polo and a company-wide rollout move through the identical production process: submit artwork and quantity, approve the quote and pay, approve the stitch or print proof, then track status through pickup or delivery.
Bulk Pricing and Quality Tiers
Bulk ordering rewards larger office rosters and multi-department orders.

FAQs
Pricing depends on decoration method, colour count, and order quantity. Request a quote for an exact price on a specific order. Every quote receives a response within 1 hour.
No minimum order applies through DTF printing. This makes it possible to get custom polo shirts approved as a single sample. A full office or team order can follow once that sample is confirmed. Embroidery and screen printing involve setup costs, so those methods suit higher quantities better.
Embroidery stitches a logo directly into the fabric for a raised, durable finish that holds up on a pique collar. Screen printing sits ink on top of the fabric instead, working best for larger runs with 1 to 4 solid colours at a lower cost per shirt.
Standard production takes 10 business days from art approval to completion, including time to digitize a new logo into a stitch file. Rush production is available in 2 to 9 business days for a 10% fee, and same-day embroidery is available for eligible orders.
Yes, a small business that wants to buy custom polo shirts in Calgary gets the same no-minimum ordering as a large office account. Every order moves through the identical production process, and every order includes free design support regardless of size.
Yes, men's, women's, and youth cuts are all available. Different cuts can mix in the same bulk order while the artwork and decoration method stay the same.
Vector files such as AI, EPS, PDF, or SVG produce the sharpest results for both embroidery digitizing and screen printing at any size. PNG or JPG files work for DTF printing if the resolution is high enough.
Merch Express carries brands including Gildan, Nike, and Under Armour. Performance and pique-knit styles suit office wear, golf, and outdoor use. Request a quote to confirm current brand and colour availability.
Yes, screen printing and DTF printing are both available alongside embroidery. Printed polos work well for full-colour logos or designs that would cost more to digitize for embroidery.
Yes, per-shirt pricing decreases as order quantity increases for embroidery, screen printing, and DTF. Orders of 25 pieces or more qualify for volume savings, with larger tiers at 100 and 500 pieces.
Yes, Merch Express sends a proof for every order before production begins, including thread colour and placement for embroidery. Design changes can still be made at the proof stage.
Yes, Merch Express ships to every Canadian province from its Calgary production facility. Businesses can order custom polo shirts Canada wide or pick up locally in Calgary.
More than 20,000 customers across Canada order custom polo shirts through Merch Express, backed by a 4.9-star rating across 200+ verified Google reviews. Calgary businesses that buy custom polo shirts locally start from the same production floor serving the rest of Canada. Merch Express has produced custom apparel in Calgary since 1994 and holds membership in the Calgary Chamber of Commerce and the Advertising Specialty Institute.
What Our Customers Say
Worked with budget promotion to create bucket hats for a bachelor party for 16 guys. They were able to accommodate our custom design onto the hats and they turned out better than expected. Loved the result and would be glad to work with them in the future. Special thanks to Rohan for going above and beyond to have our order ready. Thanks again!

We just had some hats made and Holly was incredible! She really showed care with her service and was quick to respond - you really feel in good hands and like you're speaking with a company that cares, which is hard to come by these days. Will definitely reach back to them for our future needs!
