Clothes2Order vs MyWorkwear: What Actually Separates Them

Choosing between Clothes2Order and MyWorkwear for bulk branded uniforms comes down to how much hand-holding your order needs. Clothes2Order suits buyers who want a fast, self-service online checkout. MyWorkwear leans toward account-managed ordering. At Dprintclothing, we've watched teams tie themselves in knots over this exact decision, so here is the honest breakdown.

When comparing suppliers, get a written quote before deciding, so you can judge the total cost of your order.

How the ordering mechanics actually differ

With Clothes2Order, the flow is built for speed: you pick garments, upload artwork, choose decoration and pay at checkout. That suits a team manager who knows exactly what they want and does not need a conversation. The trade-off is that anything unusual, a mixed-size run across several garment types, or a logo that needs redrawing, slows the self-service route down because you are waiting on artwork checks rather than talking them through.

MyWorkwear's model is closer to a managed account. You brief an account contact, they confirm garment availability and decoration suitability, and the quote comes back as a single document covering garments, decoration and delivery. That is helpful when you are ordering for a growing team and want one person accountable for the run. The trade-off is that you cannot simply check out at 9pm on a Sunday; you are working to their response times.

Decision guidance by team size and use case

• Small teams, one-off order: Look for a self-service route if your artwork is already vector or high-resolution.
• Medium and mixed-role teams: Compare suppliers on a written quote.
• Office and client-facing teams: Prioritise a smart polo or shirt weight and a clean left-chest embroidery.
• Trade and outdoor teams: Prioritise heavier fabric and reinforced stitching.

Watch out: compare quotes only when both include garment, decoration, setup and delivery on the same line items.

Custom Work Uniforms for Teams: Matching Garments to the Job

The right custom work uniforms for teams depend on the job, not the catalogue. Site and trade crews need hard-wearing fabric that survives washing and abrasion. Client-facing staff need a smarter finish, which usually means a polo over a basic tee.

For a smart, durable option, the Embroidered Pro RTX RX101 Pro Piqué Polo Shirt is a 220gsm cotton-polyester blend with reinforced stitching. Our Pro RTX range covers the practical bases:

• Polos: 220gsm, smart enough for front-of-house
• T-shirts: 180gsm, for site and event teams
• Sweatshirts: 300gsm, for cold-weather outdoor work

Match the garment weight to the environment first, then worry about colour. A heavier fabric lasts longer but feels warm indoors.

Embroidered Workwear: Why Stitching Outlasts Print on Uniforms

Embroidery is a suitable choice for logos on uniforms that need to look sharp over time.

Watch out: supply vector artwork or a high-resolution file from the start.

Workwear Logo Placement: Getting the Position Right

Logo placement follows a simple rule: left chest for company identity, right chest for names or roles. Left chest sits where the eye lands first, which is why most corporate apparel puts the brand there. Back placement suits larger designs and event teams who need visibility from a distance.

Common positions:

• Left chest: company logo
• Right chest: staff name or role
• Back: larger brand mark for events
• Sleeve: small secondary logo

Getting the artwork ready matters as much as the position. Our 7 steps to prepare a logo for embroidery covers file formats and sizing so placement comes out right first time.

A Company Uniform Ordering Guide for Bulk Branded Uniforms

A company uniform ordering guide should start with a clear brief, not a supplier. Nail down headcount, garment type, decoration method and deadline before you request quotes, because every supplier prices against those four variables.

Order in this sequence:

1. Confirm headcount and sizes, allowing spares for new starters
2. Choose garments by role and environment
3. Decide embroidery or print per garment
4. Approve a digital proof before production
5. Confirm delivery date against your deadline

Reordering and Keeping Uniforms Consistent as Your Team Grows

Uniform consistency breaks down at reorder time, not first order. Teams grow, colours get discontinued and a second batch can arrive a shade off the first if the supplier changes stock. Keep a written record of garment codes, decoration files and thread colours so every reorder matches.

What to record on the first order

• Garment code and colour name exactly as printed on the supplier's confirmation, not the marketing name.
• Decoration file in its original vector or high-resolution format, plus the approved proof.
• Thread colour references used for embroidery, so a reorder does not drift to a near-match.
• Placement measurements so position stays identical.
• Order reference and date, so you can point the supplier to the original job.

How each supplier handles repeat runs

Clothes2Order keeps your artwork on file against your account, so a reorder is largely a case of logging in, selecting the same garments and re-submitting. That is quick, but it puts the onus on you to check the garment code has not changed and that the colour is still in stock before you pay.

MyWorkwear's account-managed model means your account contact can re-run the job from the original brief. That is useful when the person who placed the first order has moved on, because the knowledge sits with the supplier rather than an individual. The trade-off is that you are dependent on their response times rather than a self-service checkout.

Keeping consistency as headcount climbs

A sensible habit is ordering spare stock on the first run to cover new starters and replacements. When you scale up, ask how bulk orders and quantity discounts are structured before you commit. Our bulk orders and discounts page explains how bulk ordering and quantity discounts work for businesses, workwear and teams.

Bulk discounts are available on larger orders.

Watch out: check stock availability before you promise new starters a matching uniform.

Request a Quote and Sample for Your Team Uniforms

Getting a quote before committing helps you plan your spend. Ask for a written quote that breaks out garment cost, decoration and delivery separately, so you can compare suppliers on the same basis.
