Hi there! I’m Josh Porter, owner of JPorter Custom. After years of successfully designing and selling my own clothing brand in Australia (and globally), I decided to put my experience into action and help others who want to create their own pieces. I LOVE branding and will give you honest feedback/advice on your ideas.

Welcome to JPorter! We create custom branded clothing and accessories with your logos. Our specialty is small to medium sized orders for clients based anywhere in Australia.
DESIGN PROOFS:
We prepare professional design proofs so you can see exactly how your logos will look on the chosen product styles and colours.
PRODUCTS:
Merch, uniforms, accessories. Check out our products section to see all the options.
PRINTED LOGOS:
Our preferred logo method and the best option for price and detail.
EMBROIDERY LOGOS:
Please be aware embroidery is a more expensive option. For some items such as beanies and towels, embroidery is the only option (prints don’t work on the fabrics).
PATCHES:
We can create custom leather, synthetic, embroidered, or woven patches with your logo/design. We arrange for them to be stitched onto the products you choose, for example hats, jackets, bags. The minimum is 50 of the same patch so it’s not a small order option.
CUSTOM MADE STYLES:
We can work with brands to create custom made styles in our overseas factories. For example if a client wants to create custom style tights & sports bra sets that aren’t available in our normal pre-made ranges. The minimum is usually 30 - 50 of the same style/colour so it’s not a small order option.

The cost per item depends on the quantity you order, the product styles and the size of the logos. The 20+ logo price is a lot cheaper than smaller jobs, so a lot of clients bump their order to 20 mixed pieces with identical logos to reduce the cost of each item.
See the ‘Minimum order quantity’ section below for more info about how the pricing works.
The reason we don’t show a price-list on the website is simply because each custom project is unique with many variables!
A quote will be provided once you submit your enquiry.

PRINTED APPAREL:
There is no minimum order on most products. The pricing is based on either the bulk pricing or the mini job pricing. Bulk pricing per item is significantly cheaper than mini job pricing.
Bulk pricing = 20+ identical logos printed onto products. Products can be any mix of items & sizes that these identical logos work on.
For example 10 black t-shirts, 5 red hoodies, 5 blue tanks, all with the same white left chest logo = 20 items with identical logos.Mini job pricing = less than 20 identical logos printed onto products. Products can be mixed. Great for samples, small projects, individual uniforms with staff name logos etc.
Identical logos = this means the same logo design/size/colour-way. You can have x 20 of a 10cm wide rainbow coloured design, but if you wanted x 10 of the same design in red colour and x 10 of the same design in white colour, this does not equal 20 identical logos.
Note - there is no extra charge for a multicoloured logo versus a plain colour logo.
EMBROIDERY:
The minimum order quantity for embroidery items is x 10 of the same product (sizes can be mixed) with identical logos on each.
SOCKS/SLIDES:
The minimum order for socks or slides is 10 pairs with the same design however we suggest 20 pairs as the minimum order due to the high cost for 10 pairs.
BOTTLES/SHAKERS:
The minimum order is usually 20 of the same design.

We need your logo files in vector format. This is essential so we can create print screens and professional digital design proofs. If you do not have vector files and only an image (.jpeg or .png), we can arrange to reformat your logo for a small fee.
WHAT IS VECTOR FORMAT?
Vector files are usually created by designers as one of the following formats - .ai, .eps, .pdf (on Canva they are .svg). Vector files are NOT .jpeg or .png. If you only have .jpg or .png files, that is not a problem. For a fee we will reformat your logo into the correct format. In the meantime, upload your .jpg or .png logos so we can estimate your quote.
Please get in touch if you have questions or need help with your logos.
