I had such a great experience with Merlin's Embroidery! I brought in a piece of fabric and asked…read morethem to embroider "The Watkins" based on an image I had. They were able to match the font and lettering exactly, and it turned out even better than I imagined. The owner was incredibly friendly, helpful, and easy to work with throughout the whole process.

I'll definitely be back!

Forgettable. That never sat right with me. San Diego isn't forgettable. This city lives in its local spots. Breweries. Restaurants. Sports bars. The places where you buy a shirt or a hat once, and it follows you for years because it reminds you who you were when you wore it. You don't replace those things, you earn them. That's what I wanted my brand to feel like. Octavio understood that immediately. He's seen every logo, every trend, every attempt to look cool. That's exactly why his opinion matters. He has an eye for quality, a respect for craftsmanship, and the rare ability to help shape an idea without hijacking it. He didn't sell me on something louder or flashier. He helped me refine what already felt honest. The result wasn't just apparel. It was identity. At Resident Lending, we're not a corporate logo, we're your San Diegan neighbor. These shirts represent being a Resident and enjoying it. Because of the work Octavio and his team do, I'll keep coming back, and I'll be putting my clients into official San Diego Resident gear. Quietly confident. Built to last. Great work. Fair prices. Real pride in what they produce. That's how brands are born. Eric Atilano Resident Lending Inc. https://linktr.ee/ericloans1

I was referred to Remy by Jose @ San Diego Sewing and he did not disappoint! I just had a small…read moreproject where i wanted 2 hats embroidered with original designs. I pleased to find out that there was no minimum on number of pieces to have work done on and Remy was able to take care of my small order rather quickly. I was impressed that he took the time to make sure the mockups were exactly what i wanted. We went back and forth a few times until we got the mockups exactly like i wanted. It was so easy to communicate because he was able to send those images directly to our text thread. The quality of his work is 10/10 and i am so happy with my new hats. I will be going back to get some sweatshirts embroidered with a business logo. If you are looking for someone who delivers great work, quick response, and reasonable pricing, you should check him out.

Oh how I was wrong. needed 3 shirts to be embroidered after some chatting with staff about cost, turnaround time, etc. I was quoted at $50 + $20 per shirt, and a 2 day turnaround time. Ok, cool. Drop my stuff off, a week goes by with no contact, when finally I receive an invoice via email basically saying "once you pay us we will start work". Seeing as how I expected my shirts to be done 5 days prior, this wasn't great news. I send an email about the delay and got a quick reply from the owner. I'll spare anyone reading this the details, but it quickly devolved to the point where I was being gaslit about the size of my order (the owner says I brought 2 shirts, when in reality I brought 3. When I confronted the owner on this they doubled down, saying I'm wrong and they are right) and being accused of having "bad energy" and "I hope you have a better day, you need it" followed by heart emojis and other such nonsense. The next day, after having obviously not done business with KNB, I go to pick up my order and the guy behind the counter had 3 shirts waiting for me to pick up and take to a business run by adults. I could have accepted the delay without much complaint if I had been communicated with by a professional, but instead I felt like I was arguing with a high schooler about the simple facts of my order. For anyone who's made it this far: maybe this person was just having a bad day and isn't normally like this, but there are a ton of screen printers in San Diego, why risk it? P.S. I didn't even go into when the owner passive aggressively insulted the size of my order, saying that "maybe you'll be happier taking your 2 shirts to t-shirt mart"
