A left-chest embroidered Port Authority J317 soft shell costs $34.77 all-in at 24 pieces and $32.77 at 144, plus $18.99 one-time digitizing. Here is where every dollar goes, from Battle Born Clothing's actual price matrix.

## The three parts of the price

Every custom jacket price is blank plus decoration plus one-time fees. The blank is the jacket itself. Decoration is the embroidery, priced per piece by quantity. One-time fees are digitizing (turning your logo into a stitch file) and anything optional like names or packaging. Freight is billed at cost.

### The blank

We price blanks at supplier cost × 2 when the cost is under $10, and cost + 35% at $10 and up. A Port Authority J317 soft shell is $28.77 on that rule. A Port Authority F218 fleece is $21.57. Premium brands (Carhartt, Nike, OGIO, Eddie Bauer, The North Face) and hi-vis are quoted per job because their pricing moves and some brands set minimum advertised prices.

### The embroidery

| Quantity | Embroidery per piece |
|---|---|
| 12-47 | $6.00 |
| 48-71 | $5.50 |
| 72-95 | $4.50 |
| 96-143 | $4.00 |
| 144+ | $4.00 |

The rate drops at 48, 96 and 144 pieces. **Every embroidery price covers one design up to 6,000 stitches. Above that, each additional 1,000 stitches adds $1.50 (12-23 pcs), $1.00 (24-71), $0.60 (72-95) or $0.50 (96+) per piece**, rounded up to the next 1,000; we tell you the exact count with the proof.

### One-time fees

- Digitizing: $18.99 per design, once. Reorders use the same file.
- Second location (sleeve, back, names): quoted per design.
- 2XL and up: supplier size upcharge of roughly $1 to $7 per piece, shown on the quote.

## All-in price by quantity

| Quantity | J317 soft shell | F218 fleece |
|---|---|---|
| 12-23 | $34.77 | $27.57 |
| 24-47 | $34.77 | $27.57 |
| 48-71 | $34.27 | $27.07 |
| 72-95 | $33.27 | $26.07 |
| 96-119 | $32.77 | $25.57 |
| 120-143 | $32.77 | $25.57 |
| 144+ | $32.77 | $25.57 |

## Worked totals

| Order | Math | Total |
|---|---|---|
| 12 J317 | 12 × $34.77 + $18.99 | $436.23 |
| 24 J317 | 24 × $34.77 + $18.99 | $853.47 |
| 48 J317 | 48 × $34.27 + $18.99 | $1,663.95 |
| 96 J317 | 96 × $33.77 + $18.99 | $3,260.91 |
| 144 J317 | 144 × $32.77 + $18.99 | $4,737.87 |
| 48 F218 fleece | 48 × $27.07 + $18.99 | $1,318.35 |

## What moves the price up

- A premium brand blank. Carhartt, OGIO, Eddie Bauer and The North Face cost more than Port Authority and are quoted per job.
- A back design. Large embroidery is priced by stitch count and can cost more than the chest logo and blank combined on a filled design.
- Names. Each name is its own small embroidery run; quoted per job.
- Size spread. A crew with many 2XL and 3XL pieces carries the supplier upcharge on those pieces.
- Rush. Standard is 28 days from proof approval; anything faster is quoted per job.

## What moves the price down

- Hitting the next tier. 44 jackets cost $6.00 each to embroider; 48 cost $5.50. The four extra jackets often pay for themselves.
- Same logo on mixed styles. We count the embroidery tier across every piece with the same design, so 30 jackets plus 30 vests is a 60-piece tier.
- Reordering. No new digitizing fee.
- Supplying your own jackets. You pay $2 per item handling plus embroidery; see the [pricing page](/pricing/).

## Questions
**Is there a minimum order?** No hard minimum. The 12-23 tier is the top of the matrix, and smaller orders are possible; digitizing makes very small runs expensive per piece.

**Does the price include shipping?** No. Freight is billed at cost from Yerington, Nevada.

**Why are Carhartt and OGIO quoted per job?** Those brands set minimum advertised pricing and their costs move. We are an authorized decorator for them and quote from live cost with the brand's rules respected.
