Choose the method after the glove material
A logo method that works on one glove may not suit another. Start with the actual panel material, available space, artwork and intended use. Then compare how each proposed method looks, feels and behaves when the glove bends.
GloveWise reviews screen printing, heat transfer, hot stamping, embroidery, silicone printing and sublimation for suitable products. These are project options; the full list is not available on every glove. For disposable gloves, review branding on the packaging rather than assuming the glove itself can carry the same decoration as a sewn product.
Compare the options on a sample
| Method | When to review it | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Screen printing | Graphics on a compatible glove surface. | Ink colors, artwork size, placement, edge clarity and expected wear. |
| Heat transfer | Detailed or multicolor artwork on compatible materials. | Heat response, adhesion, edges, flex and finished feel. |
| Embroidery | Compatible textile panels or labels. | Detail, stitch density, backing, thickness and comfort. |
| Hot stamping / embossing | Suitable leather or other compatible panels. | Tooling, depth, surface response and the final impression. |
| Silicone printing | Raised or flexible marks on compatible areas. | Thickness, coverage, adhesion, detail and flex. |
| Sublimation | Suitable polyester components. | Composition, base color, artwork and the finished result. |
The table is a review guide, not a guarantee of compatibility. Approve the method on the selected material before releasing bulk production.
Send artwork with dimensions and placement
Provide the best artwork file you have. GloveWise can review AI, PDF, PSD, JPG or PNG files; a file extension alone does not establish that artwork is ready for production. Include the intended logo width or height, colors and a marked placement reference. State whether the mark should appear on one or both gloves.
If the artwork contains small lettering, thin lines or several colors, ask to see how those details reproduce at the actual size. A large screen preview can hide problems that become visible on a small cuff or label.
Review glove sizes as well as logo size. A mark positioned correctly on one size may need a placement rule for the full size range.
Check use, feel and the reverse side
Bend the approved sample and examine the mark around seams, folds and high-movement areas. For embroidery, check the inside for backing or roughness. For a raised print, review coverage and feel; a printed logo should not be presented as tested grip or protective performance unless the finished product has relevant evidence.
Agree on the relevant wear or care requirements and any necessary test method before making durability claims. Material, ink or thread, process settings and intended use all belong in the review. Do not promise a wash count or service life based only on the decoration name.
Include labels and packaging in the same review
Sometimes a woven label, hangtag, bag or box is the better place for a detailed brand message. Coordinate the glove mark, size and care labels, packaging artwork and pack count so that the complete order has a consistent presentation.
Ask the quotation to identify the selected decoration method, artwork or tooling charges if applicable, the quantity basis and the sample work included. A change in material, logo size, number of colors or placement may require a revised quotation.
Start with a reference and your logo, then use the customization page to review the other decisions. Before production, follow the sample approval checklist and keep the accepted artwork with the final glove specification.
