Hmmm. Tough one.
I'm a firm fan of embroidered as they look and last so much better than printed (in my opinion). I remember we had problems with the current supplier getting the orders wrong on a couple of occasions, so perhaps we could consider finding an alternative supplier who can embroider single items? Happy to investigate if this is the direction we collectively decide to take.
Or, we could see who else would like a hoodie (I could probably be persuaded to have another one if it helps) and make up a batch to take to an alternative supplier for embroidery.
