Detailed Selection and Ordering Instructions
Garment Selection
​
The normal process is to use the Sanmar Catalog www.sanmar.com to find the garment you want and fill out the “Garment Information” section of the order form accordingly. The discount varies from 10% to 30% below list price based on the price of the garment.
The most commonly purchased garments in the past have included short and long-sleeved tee shirts and polos, as well as all kinds of sweatshirts. Other occasional purchases have included denim shirts, warm-up jackets, and hats. Almost any garment or bag you find on Sanmar.com can be embroidered.
As an option, the garment can be supplied by the customer. In this case the garment can be dropped off at, or shipped directly to, Alphabet Embroidery Studios with a filled-out order form. Discussion with them prior to shipping is advised.
​
Embroidering Selection
​
Decide on what logo(s), personalization, and colors you want on the garment, and fill out the MVT Apparel Order Form accordingly.
The recommended arrangement is Left Chest (above pocket if there is a pocket) with your name on top, logo in the middle, and club affiliation (usually “Miami Valley Triumphs”) on bottom. For this, you can just write “Standard” in all of the location boxes. Please see the Standard Example Order Form for how to order the standard arrangement. You are also free to be creative. The form is designed to allow a great deal of customization. Please see the Custom Example Order Form for ideas.
​
Logos and Images:
-
The Miami Valley Triumphs logo is about 2.5” in diameter.
-
The car logos are about 3.9” in length.
-
The TR3 only comes with wind wings.
-
Note that the TR8 image is essentially the same as the TR7.
-
The “MVT” numbers embroidered under examples are to identify the logo only, and will not appear on garments.
Text and Fonts:
​
Normally the club name (Miami Valley Triumphs) has been block text and the name in block or script. There is a greater choice with Alphabet and the PDF attached (Text and Font Examples) shows the standard options that Alphabet can provide. When selecting text color (usually black or white) keep in mind that it needs to have enough contrast with the color of the garment to be easily readable.
Note: When filling in text, do NOT include quotation marks unless you actually want quotation marks embroidered onto the garment.
Colors:
There are multiple ways to select a color:
-
Pick a color yourself from the link below
-
Bring your car to Alphabet Embroidery in Xenia for them to do a direct color-match in person
-
Send a quality photo of your car with good neutral lighting to Alphabet for them to do an indirect color-match based on the picture (this is not as good due to variations in color from lighting, cameras, and screens).
Alphabet carries over 200 color options to choose from. The following link, Thread Colors, includes all of these options. If by chance a color from this list is selected that Alphabet does not carry, they will reach out to you with their closest match and await approval before proceeding. Keep in mind that sometimes the color on the screen doesn’t perfectly depict what the actual thread looks like in person, especially depending on the screen it’s being viewed on, relative lighting, etc.
​

Special Requests: For any special requests that cannot be described by simply filling out the other boxes in the form, use the “Special Instructions” box and submit the order form, and Alphabet will reach out to you to discuss and confirm what you’re looking for.

​
Delivery: The default means of delivery is that Chuck White will pick up the garments from Alphabet and bring them to the next monthly MVT meeting.

FAQs​
​​
I have my own garment and want it embroidered. Can I do this? Sure, as explained above you can send your own garment to Alphabet Embroidery with an order form. If provided, it should be clean and only lightly used.
​
I can't find what I want in the Sanmar catalog: If a suitable garment cannot be found in the Sanmar catalog, contact Alphabet Embroidery. They have several other suppliers they can use.
