Bear Grips Pro ShopsCustom Embroidered Jackets for Your Business? What Actually Gets Stitched
- The catalog does not carry a standalone jacket product. What most searches for embroidered jackets are actually looking for is the quarter-zip pullover.
- The Sport-Tek mens and ladies performance quarter-zip pullovers are both $29.88 VIP base and are printed, not embroidered.
- Layer the printed quarter-zip over a printed tee or polo, then add an embroidered hat for the one stitched piece in the outfit.
- Sales reps, event staff, and cold-weather crews are the most common buyers of the quarter-zip as their outer layer.
Searches for custom embroidered jackets almost always come from someone picturing a soft-shell or fleece jacket with a stitched company logo on the chest. The Bear Grips Pro Shops catalog does not carry a standalone jacket item, and the closest piece, the quarter-zip pullover, is printed rather than embroidered, same as the rest of the apparel line. That does not mean the outerwear look is off the table. Here is what is actually available and how it fits into a cold-weather or event uniform.
What the Catalog Actually Has for Outerwear
| Piece | Brand | Best for | VIP base |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mens performance quarter-zip pullover | Sport-Tek | Sales calls, cold mornings, layering | $29.88 |
| Ladies quarter-zip pullover | Sport-Tek | Same use, womens fit | $29.88 |
| Champion unisex performance hoodie | Champion | Heavier cold-weather layer | $45.88 |
| Classic zip-up hoodie | Gildan | Easy on and off through the day | $41.88 |
The quarter-zip pullover functions as the closest thing to a business jacket in the lineup, worn over a printed polo or tee.
Why the Quarter-Zip Is Printed, Not Stitched
Printing on the quarter-zip allows a full left-chest logo plus a larger back design at no extra setup fee, and there is no color limit. The zip splits the front panel, which is part of why most companies print rather than stitch this piece: an embroidered design across a working zipper does not sit as cleanly as a printed one does.

Complete the Look With an Embroidered Hat
The one piece in a cold-weather outfit that actually embroiders is the Yupoong Cuffed Winter Hat, $25.86 VIP base. Paired with a printed quarter-zip, the outfit reads as a coordinated, professional cold-weather uniform without needing an actual embroidered jacket that the catalog does not carry.
