Embroidered sweatshirts can be stylish status symbols with the names of universities or corporations embroidered on the front. They can also be warm and comfortable with your favorite saying or even personalized with the names of your grandchildren on them, like the popular grandma sweatshirt. Whatever your preference, embroidered sweatshirts are more popular than ever.
Where did it all begin? At around 1925 the word sweatshirt became part of our vocabulary. Originally for athletes to wear while warming up before or after sports, the first sweatshirts were a simple gray with no adornment. Champion was the first company to mass produce sweatshirts in the mid 1930's.
They also produced the first zip front, hooded sweatshirt. But embroidered sweatshirts didn't show up commercially until the 1960's when the boom of wearing university names on sweatshirts began. The slogan craze of the 1970's added to the popularity, and the rest is history. Sweatshirts are comfortable, fun and a staple in every wardrobe.
Today, not only are there an unlimited variety of embroidered designs and logos to choose from, but you can also have anything you like sewn on a custom embroidered sweatshirt. Corporate America is one of the largest consumers of custom embroidered sweatshirts. More and more corporations, organizations and event planners have realized the benefits of embroidered wearable gifts for employees, clients and attendees. Along with embroidered sweatshirts, embroidered hats, embroidered polo shirts and even embroidered jackets are gaining popularity. They are proven to raise morale and enhance client loyalty. Best of all, they turn everyone who wears them into walking billboards.
Embroidered sweatshirts truly reflect your personality. Anything from your family crest to your grandchildren's names can be embroidered on a sweatshirt. Grandma sweatshirts have become tremendously popular. What better way to show your pride in your grandchildren than by embroidering their names on a sweatshirt. And as new grandchildren arrive, it is easy to take your grandma sweatshirt to a local embroidery store and have names added. If you know a grandma who doesn't have one, they make a cherished gift.
Going strong since 1925, it looks as though the embroidered sweatshirt has become a beloved piece of history. And its current popularity seems to indicate that it will continue to be a favorite. It's not just a piece of clothing, it's a notable part of our culture. And if you happen to be one of the few people who do not own a sweatshirt, pick one up, slip one on and see how good it makes you feel.
