Custom Christmas Jumpers With Your Logo: The Complete 2026 Guide

Updated 24 August 2026 · 8 min read

In short: Custom Christmas jumpers are knitted jumpers produced to your own design, with your logo, colours and wording knitted or embroidered in. UK group orders typically start at 20 pieces, cost around £34.99 per jumper, and take about four weeks from approved artwork to delivery.

A custom Christmas jumper is not a novelty item bought off a shelf. It is a garment produced to your own design, with your logo, your colours and your wording built into the knit. For a company, a rugby club, a school staffroom or a charity fundraising team, it is the one piece of branded kit people actually want to keep wearing after the event.

This guide covers how the process works in practice: what artwork you need, the decoration methods available, how sizing runs across a mixed group, and what to budget. It is written for the person who has been handed the job of sorting jumpers for everyone.

How custom Christmas jumpers are made

There are three common routes, and the right one depends on quantity, budget and how bold the design is.

MethodBest forWhat it looks like
Knitted-in designFull-front festive patterns, Fair Isle bands, big logosThe design is part of the fabric — no print sitting on top, and it survives washing indefinitely
EmbroiderySmall chest logos, names, initials, squad numbersRaised stitching, premium feel, ideal for corporate marks that must stay exact
Applique / patchesCrests and badges with fine detailDetail-heavy artwork reproduced cleanly, stitched onto the knit

Most group orders end up as a knitted-in festive pattern with an embroidered or knitted logo on the chest, and often a personalised name or number on the back.

What artwork do you need to supply?

  • A vector logo (AI, EPS, SVG or PDF) is ideal. A high-resolution PNG with a transparent background also works.
  • Your brand colours, ideally as Pantone references — knit yarns are matched to solid colours, not printed gradients.
  • Any wording: club name, founding year, department, a slogan or an in-joke.
  • A rough idea of placement: chest, full front, back, sleeves.

If you do not have artwork ready, you can still start. Our on-site designer generates four realistic knit concepts from your organisation name, your colours and an uploaded logo, so you have something to circulate internally before committing to anything.

Minimum order, pricing and lead times

  • Minimum order: a minimum order of 20 jumpers per design.
  • Price: £34.99 per jumper, including your custom design work.
  • Lead time: around four weeks from approved artwork to delivery.
  • Sizes: mixed size runs across one order are standard — you are not locked into one size.

The practical deadline matters more than the price. Because production runs about four weeks and December is the busiest period in the calendar, orders placed in September and October land comfortably; orders placed in late November are tight. If you are reading this in summer, you are early in the best possible way.

Getting sizing right across a group

  1. Circulate a simple sizing form (XS to 3XL) with a deadline a week before you intend to order.
  2. Add roughly 5–10% spare in the middle sizes for late joiners and new starters.
  3. Tell people knitwear is worn slightly relaxed — most groups size up rather than down.
  4. Record who ordered what if you are adding personalised names or numbers.

Where custom Christmas jumpers get used

  • Companies: Christmas parties, client gifting, trade shows, office charity days, team photos that end up on LinkedIn.
  • Sports clubs: end-of-season socials, tour kit, fundraising sales to supporters and parents.
  • Schools and universities: staff Christmas jumper day, leavers' merchandise, society kit.
  • Charities: fundraising sales where a branded jumper raises more per unit than a t-shirt.

Common questions

Can we put more than one logo on a jumper?

Yes. Multiple marks are common where a club has a sponsor — typically the crest on the chest and the sponsor on the sleeve or upper back.

Can each jumper have a different name on it?

Yes. Individual names, initials or numbers can be added per garment within the same order.

Do you print or knit the design?

Designs are knitted or stitched rather than printed, which is what makes a custom jumper feel like real knitwear rather than a printed sweatshirt.

How much does a custom Christmas jumper cost in the UK?

Our group pricing is £34.99 per jumper with a minimum order of 20 pieces, and that includes the design work. Compared with buying generic novelty jumpers for a whole team, the per-head difference is small and the result is something branded and reusable.
