What the Exodus Hoodies team would do if we could design an Eclipse Hoodie for the Twilight Merchandise range

The Exodus Hoodies team have been eagerly looking forward to the release of the third movie installment in the Twilight Saga and so while we were waiting for the movie to be released we decided to past the time by putting together what we think would be the ultimate hoodie designs for the Eclipse merchandise range.

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE NOT LICENSED TO SELL TWILIGHT/ECLIPSE MERCHANDISE AND THE FOLLOWING DESIGNS WE HAVE JUST DONE FOR FUN FROM A FAN PERSPECTIVE.

Exodus Hoodies are completely custom hoodies and while we normally design Hoodies & Jackets for Schools and Sporting Clubs we can design for other industries also. All our Hoodies & Jackets actually start white and we use a printing method called Sublimation to print the design on to the material. This means we are not restricted to material colours and we can even print intricate designs or photos. Because we completely custom make them there are no design limitations and so the team let our imaginations go wild when putting these concepts together for the Eclipse Hoodie. So check out our designs below; we would love your feedback and ideas so leave a comment!

These first couple of designs are pretty basic where we would just use photos of the main stars - Edward, Bella & Jacob. Take moment to read the full post and to see all the designs!

Should NRL teams be restricted to one jersey design?

I have heard some pretty heated debates on the radio recently about whether or not NRL teams should be restricted to one or two strips maximum - one in their normal colours and a reverse strip for when they play teams of a similar colour. At the moment it seems teams have more than just these two standard strips, an example being The Dragons with a commemorative strip created for the Anzac Day game.

On the radio there were calls from people who thought it was unfair that teams could have multiple strips as it meant there is constant pressure to purchase a new jersey each time the strip changes which can be very costly. Other callers loved the fact that the strip changes and that they can collect all the different designs.

Staff Christmas Gifts personalised with your Employees' Names

At Christmas time we have lots of requests from companies to have their Staff Christmas Gifts personalised with their employee names so we thought it would be appropriate to mention this service early this year so our clients can consider this option when organising their gifts. Most people are not aware of the many personalisation options we have available so we decided we would outline them all in this below:

Embroidered Name 

If you are doing a product made of fabric e.g. clothing, most bags, caps, towels etc. there is the opportunity to add a personalised embroidered name. The cost is $6.00 per name and this will allow up to 5,000 stitches. Because it is just text this can cover even large names printed around 25cm on the bottom of a beach towel. There is no additional cost if you choose from one of our standard fonts of which we have hundreds to choose from. However if you do want the names written in a specific font there may be a small set-up fee of between $30 to $45 + GST.

Engraved Name

If you are giving a product that is made out of metal e.g. metal pens, key rings, desk items etc. it is possible to add a personalised engraved name. The below prices are based on an engraving area of 30 x 20mm (or 600mm square) in size or equivalent. For engraving we just need the names supplied in a Word Document.

Direct Digitally Printed Name

JEM Promotional Products have a new branding method called Direct Digital Printing where you can do a full colour process print on a variety of items without it costing extra than a standard 1 or 2 colour pad print. Follow this link to read more about and see which products can be Direct Digital Printed.

The best thing about this branding method is that we can actually personalise each item with a personal name at NO ADDITIONAL COST. For this personalisation option we just need a separate copy of your artwork file for each person with only their name appearing. You can provide this or we can prepare the files you for at a cost of $85 + GST per hour. It takes us approximately a minute per name to edit and save the file.

Sublimated Name

On nll neoprene (Stubby Cooler material) products we are able to do a printing method called Sublimation. Sublimation allows us to print full colour artworks and even photos onto neoprene. printing process that uses heat to transfer dye onto a medium such as a plastic card, paper, or fabric. The dye transitions between the solid and gas states without going through a liquid stage.

Example of neoprene products we have available are Stubby Coolers.

Decal Name on Ceramics 

If you are buying your staff Coffee Mugs as their Christmas Gift you can have their name personalised on the mug. People become very protective of their mug and generally don't like to share so having your name on the mug is a perfect way to identify it as yours and prevent coffee cup thief's from using it!
