Embroidery
MV Sport’s specially trained digitizers create direct embroidery designs one stitch at a time which are sewn with care on our state of the art Tajima machines. [Code: E1-E6 / EA-EB]
DIRECT – Direct embroidery creates a sophisticated rendering of most logos, mascots, wordmarks and other designs. Our top quality viscose rayon thread offers exceptional sheen and lustre combined with a soft feel and touch. [Thread Code: THR]
FILIGREE – For a vintage look and feel, our acrylic filigree thread offers a unique detail and texture. Due to 5-6x the thickness of our standard embroidery thread, not all embroidery designs can be produced with this thread. [Thread Code: FIL]
3D – Puff embroidery adds a dimension to classic embroidery designs. [Code: E2-E3 3D]
MOTIF – Using our filigree thread, transform a basic wordmark into a timeless design using our open stitch embroidery embellishment design. [Code: E3 MOTIF]
APPLIQUE
Applique is the process of cutting and applying fabric to a garment. Our applique designs utilize a variety of materials, including felt, tackle twill, jersey and fleece to add dimension, value and interest to a design. MV Sport is the leader in innovative classic and laser applique designs with over 100 different materials and colors. [Code A0-A6 / L0-L6]
JERSEY APPLIQUE – To add dimension without adding weight, our solid / contrast / patterned jersey applique is light and soft with a t-shirt feel. [Material Code: JR]
FELT APPLIQUE – A classic, rich, soft and extremely versatile material, our 100% acrylic felt can be used in single or double to create greater dimension to a design. The felt can be left with a laser cut edge or finished with a merrowed or zig-zag stitch. [Material Code: FL]
TACKLE TWILL APPLIQUE – With a glossy face, the traditional tackle twill material offers a rugged and sporty appearance. Use in a single layer or double layer for a crispy clean design. [Material Code: TT]
