Send us a clear photo of your dog, cat, horse, parrot, whatever currently rules your household, and our team will digitise their face into a custom embroidery design, then stitch it onto a soft cotton men's tee. Every floppy ear, every patch of colour, every tongue-out grin preserved in thread.

Designed and embroidered in Melbourne by RK Threads.
The embroidery
Our artists draw your pet from your photo. We set the drawing up for the machines, which means turning it into a stitch file the machine can follow, then stitch it in our Melbourne studio.
A clear, bright photo where you can see their face and markings gives our artists the most to work with.
Sizing
The size guide next to the sizes has the measurements. They're taken flat on the garment in centimetres, so lay a piece you like flat and compare.
Care
Wash cold and inside out. Skip the dryer if you can, and don't iron straight over the stitching.
Shipping and turnaround
Custom pieces are ready to post two weeks after you order (10 business days). Rush is five business days for $25 more, and you add it in the design tool.
Shipping is free in Australia over $90 and free internationally over $150.
Returns
Our refund policy has the details. If something's not right, message us.
