I've been using Graphic Effect for years, and they've always done an amazing job for me. They've made all of my company shirts, hoodies, hats, and even signs over the years. The quality of their work is excellent, and some of the shirts they made for me years ago are still in great condition today. I've tried a few other companies in the past, and in my opinion, they don't even come close to the quality and service I get from Graphic Effect. Edgar, the owner, is always very responsive, professional, efficient, and easy to work with. He gets everything done in a timely manner, and he always makes sure the finished product comes out looking right. Their pricing is also very reasonable, especially for the quality of work they provide. They're conveniently located in the North Valley area of San Jose, near Independence High School. If you're looking for custom T-shirts, company uniforms, hoodies, hats, sports apparel, event shirts, or anything custom printed for your business or personal use, I highly recommend giving Graphic Effect a call. I've trusted them with my company apparel for years, and they've never disappointed me. Great quality, great service, and great people. Definitely a five-star business in my book! read more

Graphic Affect - Screen Printing/T-Shirt Printing Near Me - San Jose, California

I was looking for a place that does emobroidery for driver hats as a gift for my groomsmen on my wedding day and stumbled upon Graphic Affect on yelp. When searching online not many places do embrodiery on driver caps or they were overpriced. I inquired online and got in contact with the owner Edgar. He told me to bring my driver cap in so they could take a look and see what they could do. I came to the shop with the driver cap that I had purchased on Amazon and the owner Edgar said they would be able to do it for which I was excited about and for a good price. I'm so glad I was found Graphic Affect to help me out. Edgar provided his recommendations on the font, color, and design to make the names show up nicely. I had 10 caps that I needed emobrodiered within a week of my wedding. Edgar and his team were able to get the embroidery done just in time for the wedding! Highly recommend! Very friendly and easy to work with! I appreciate your help in making my vision come to life! My guys loved their hats! read more

Graphic Affect - Embroidery on a baseball bag - Screen Printing/T-Shirt Printing Near Me - San Jose, California

I really liked working with this company. We had a need for one additional jacket embroidered. Our original vendor said the run was too small, I'd need to get another 20 minimum. Graphic Affect was so responsive and easy to work with. And the final design was perfect - I could not tell the difference between the original and new one. Well done. And their prices were much much more competitive read more

Amazing product, turn around, and customer service! Admittedly I didn't think getting patches created for my team outing in a week could be done but Al and his team did it and it came out absolutely perfect! Everyone loved it, will definitely spread the word of the quality and service, and will be submitting another order soon. Thanks Al and team! read more

Graphic Affect - Sweater - Screen Printing/T-Shirt Printing Near Me - San Jose, California

I'm a small business owner, and Edgar was willing to help me with a small apparel order, which I really appreciated. Most shops only take large orders, so this meant a lot. I first worked with Edgar about 3 years ago when he helped with some merchandise. His embroidery and overall quality were great. I came back again this year, and the quality was just as good. Thank you, Edgar, for your help. I look forward to continuing to work with you! read more

Graphic Affect did an amazing job on our order of 200 T-shirts. The quality was outstanding, great prints, great material, and everything came out exactly how we wanted.

This is my second time working with GAB. I've ordered crewnecks, Tshirts, tote bags, and embroidered quarterzips. They are so incredibly helpful and transparent about what they do. Eileen has been especially helpful answering all of our questions. Prices are very fair as well. I would highly recommend GAB to anyone who needs custom merch or apparel! read more

Graphic Affect - order for student org - Screen Printing/T-Shirt Printing Near Me - San Jose, California

Edgar and the Graphic Affect team absolutely saved the day for us. We had an urgent embroidery request that needed to be completed within 24 hours -- and they not only delivered perfectly on time, but also took on a couple additional shirts at the last minute and banged them out without hesitation. The quality was flawless, the communication was fast and professional, and the team went above and beyond to make sure everything looked great. It's rare to find a shop that combines speed, craftsmanship, and genuine customer care, but Graphic Affect nailed it. Highly recommend them for any custom embroidery or apparel needs. They've definitely earned our repeat business! read more

So happy with my graduation stole! Edgar was kind, helpful, and accommodating throughout the whole process. Price was reasonable, I definitely recommend and would return for more custom items! read more

Graphic Affect - Graduation Stole - Screen Printing/T-Shirt Printing Near Me - San Jose, California

After UC Berkeley shut down their most reliable embroidery shop, I was scrambling to find a place to get my grad stole embroidered. I'm so glad I found Graphic Affect! After calling in for a quote, I came in with two other graduating friends to get our stoles embroidered. We were immediately greeted by Edgar who helped us throughout the entire process. With each of us, he walked through how to get the best results with what we wanted written down on our stoles. He was so accommodating and helpful - we definitely could not have figured out all of this without his input. For what I had embroidered (7 lines of texts split between two sides of my stole), I paid $40 - which was so much more affordable than quotes I received elsewhere! Edgar told us he usually has a 2-week turnaround time but because we needed the stoles at the exact two week mark, he was able to accommodate. Picking up the stole was just as convenient and we are all so happy with the results! Edgar and the Graphic Affect team were definitely worth the commute from Berkeley to San Jose! read more

Graphic Affect - Name and Majors embroidered onto my stole - Screen Printing/T-Shirt Printing Near Me - San Jose, California

Edgar was great to work with. He helped my company with a rush order so that one of our employees could have our company swag before surgery. His fast turnaround email response was incredible and the quality of their work was phenomenal. I will definitely be using them again for company branded materials. read more

I went here to get my graduation stole embroidered. They told me that they were busy but would get to my stole in time, which was a day before I needed it. I call them the day that I need my stole and they hadn't started on anything yet. They asked me when I needed my stole as if I didn't already tell them the week prior when we met. My stole would not have gotten done on time if I didn't call them asking for the progress on my stole. No one reached out to me like how the boss told me he would. The stole looks great but the fact that I gave them my money and promises were not made disappointed me. Don't know why that happened. read more

Edgar and his team did a great job overall. Communication - clear, fast and efficient. Willingness to work with us - we had an urgent request and he was able to work with us and accommodate our request. Quality - the shirts turned out great. Highly recommend overall. read more

Phenomenal experience with Graphic Affect. They could not help with my request but they took the time to find a vendor who could. I did not ask them to do so, talk about going above and beyond. Wow, super impressive. read more

After my company went through a rebranding, the bigger online embroidery company could not match our logo colors. After a quick call and email exchange with Edgar, he was able to provide a swatch using the Pantone colors given. Upon approval, he got started right away and far exceeded the delivery time. Excellent quality, great communication, super fast, better pricing than online embroidery companies, and they're local! It's a no-brainer that we will be doing our future embroidery here. read more

Absolutely incredible service and quality! I messaged 5 different local embroidery places to get a small job done: 2 hats and a jacket. Within minutes, Eileen responded by email with a comprehensive quote and choices, including expedited timeline options. Edgar did a great job with the mock up and processing my logo graphics and the job was done in less than a week. Other embroidery places either took too long to get back to me or didn't respond at all. I highly recommend Edgar + Eileen at Graphic Affect for your embroidery needs. Thank you! read more

Thankfully, I had the best of luck finding Graphic Affect Branding. The minute I stepped into their business, they treated me like family. They are all super genuine and understand your needs. Edgar is super friendly and professional. After giving him a few ideas I had in mind, he was able to deliver beyond my expectations. If you're looking to get embroidery or anything to promote your business. You must come to GAB. They have the quality professionalism and experience you're looking for. read more

Under-promise, over-perform! Eileen and Edgar are wonderful representatives of Graphic Affect. Both were easy to work and communicate with on my embroidery job. I had an initial expectation of about two weeks (I can't remember from where) once I approved the artwork. My first job took three business days, and my second job took four days. Also, the initial setup charge, which included digitizing non-original artwork, was very inexpensive. I whole-heartedly recommend Graphic Affect! read more

I called this company in a desperate plea to get a small blanket embroidered done the same day. I was in LUCK! Normally they need more time to get what I wanted done but somehow they managed to squeeze my request in. Whewwww! Edgar was fantastic to work with and showed me previews for my approval. I was able to get my beautifully embroidered blanket in minutes! I appreciate that they were able to accommodate me on such short notice. Thank you!!! read more

Graphic Affect - Embroidered Padmé blanket - Screen Printing/T-Shirt Printing Near Me - San Jose, California

I'll start with saying if I could give 6 stars on here I would! And take shouldn't be taken lightly because I am a perfectionist and can have OCD at time, and I am ALWAYS over the moon happy with my work with Graphic Affect. This business is 100% my go to for all my custom work, and should be yours to, here why... Working with Edgar and his team is always a great experience from beginning to end. I estimate to use their services probably 7 to 10 times a year and every time the work is flawless. I can count on them for creativity and professionalism. I can be pretty demanding with crazy ideas (sorry Edgar), but Edgar always delivers over my expectations. I've had so much work done here, but here's a short list of some: Screen print T-shirts, marketing material, large prints, event programs, pens, race metals, embroidery on hats/bags, large event seating charts, custom cut charger programs, and sooo much more! Honestly, my family in the central valley Merced and friends in San Diego even do all there work with GAB and ship it because they are that good! Their service is also very speedy they always give accurate estimates but they always over deliver. I would like to add that they know their stuff (they are truly experts) you know if you have an idea and it's not going to work on material the material you wanted, they will help you figure it our and be honest with you before hand. For example, if you're trying to get something embroidered on a specific type of sweater and maybe there's a zipper that is going to prevent it in the middle, they're will tell you and be really honest with you that's it not gonna work the way you want, tell you the reason why, but offer a solution or different idea that will work. They really know their stuff, and I trust their opinions every single time and have never been disappointed. read more

My time with graphic affect was so efficient! I needed to get my graduation stole embroidered a week before my grad, and though it was considered express, they were able to get it done in just a couple days! I wish I caught the name of the lovely lady who assisted me, however she was very helpful and even messaged me to make sure that I liked the placement of what I wanted. They embroider a plethora of different things, therefore this is definitely the spot you should consider. Reliable, great pricing, and wonderful customer service! read more

love working with their team. they are very kind and a pleasure to work with. especially on design projects, you got to find people who got an eye for detail to ensure the quality. would highly recommend. read more

So my wife asked me to get her a pink hoodie with 'California' on the front on my visit to the Bay Area. Oh, and she'd preferred to have it embroidered rather than printed. No problem - I checked the usual tourist spots. No luck. I realized I would have to get a hoodie custom embroidered so I bought one from Amazon and set out to find a custom embroiderer. Did I mention I needed it under a week ahead of my return trip to MA? I contacted several embroiderers I found on Yelp. No one would do a single hoodie, much less do it in the short timeframe I had. That is until I came across Graphic Affect. I dropped off the Amazon hoodie on Thursday and they promised to have it done by the following Wednesday. I dealt with Eileen and Edgar, both of whom are awesome! I asked if they could do the embroidery in script, maybe like the Coca Cola font. The result was terrific as you can see from the attached pic. I got an email on Tuesday that the job was done a day early. What an awesome company! Thank you Graphic Affect. PS. my wife loved it! read more

Graphic Affect - Screen Printing/T-Shirt Printing Near Me - San Jose, California

I had to get a uniform shirt embroidered for the Rose Parade. I drove all the way from San Francisco. All the embroiders in the city, in town, down to San Leandro, Hayward, and San Mateo on Yelp with decent reviews couldn't help me. If they weren't open, then they had a message or sign on their door saying will be back open after Jan 6. The few that were open said I could drop it off and pick it up in a week. Hahaha In a week??? Please, I only have three days! So I finally drove to my last option on Yelp with great reviews, but I didn't want to drive all the way to San Jose, especially after driving around the Bay to numerous dry cleaners and tailors to get work done. They answered the phone and said they'll be there for a few hours, and said they'll help me out. I got there, I was detailed in what I wanted, and they delivered with excellence, and didn't disappoint, and didn't overcharge with any rush fee and thanked me for volunteering with the Red Cross. An exceptional company that was totally clutch in a mandatory embroidery of my last name for the Rose Parade after Xmas before New Year's Eve. I think it was on a Friday. Received it back in less than an hour of drop. Went to grab a bite to eat, and got a call that it was done Son! read more

Al was so accommodating in working with me throughout the process. From the size and font of the embroidery to the color coordination. The price was great.

So glad I found Edgar and Graphic Affect. I wanted some personalized embroidery additions to my husband's Giants camp shirt. Edgar not only accepted my small job, but also offered input on sizing, color and placement as well. After a short discussion, the plan was in place and the result was perfect. Seeing that Graphic Affect also designs, makes and applies vinyl decals for business vehicles, I then asked Edgar if he could apply some large vinyl decals to my car. I didn't feel qualified doing it myself. Once again, Edgar did a great job. He offered his ideas on placement, which I decided were better than mine. I love the result. Looks so good and I'll never mistake my silver Prius for wrong one. read more

I worked with Al (hope I got his name right!) recently when I came in with stoles I needed to get done within a week.

They've done plenty of sashes/grad stoles and were able to bring my idea to light. I walked in with no idea what I wanted and they made this process super easy and handled it for me. Thank you so much! read more

This review is long long longgggg overdue! IM SO SORRY EDGAR! But here is your long awaited review that I promised! First off, let me tell you how grateful I am for Edgar. It was prime time for letters (christmas time), yet Edgar made everything possible for me without a glitch! I was stressing out to the max, due to my procrastination (a super bad habit which I should really fix..) AND my other source flaking on me, trying to find a place where I could order my two pbabies their 6 sets of letters. Keep in mind that I only had A FEW DAYS left until their installs.. I frantically searched far and wide, scrolling through pages and pages, calling at least 10 embroidery places to see if I could place an order.. no luck. BUT! Lo and behold, my last and only hope, Graphic Affects! I explained to Edgar my situation, concerns, and my dramatic stressed out story over the phone.. and he said to stop on by and he'd help me in anyway possible that he could. HALLELUJAH! Praise the almighty lord and his baby Jesus. I WAS SO RELIEVED! Once I got to his office, I showed him pictures and color ways of exactly how I wanted it. However, me being a girl and all, I was questioning myself on the color ways and asked for his opinion on everything as well. He helped WITHOUT any hesitation at all! My what a sweetheart. I wanted quiet a bit of customizations, such as a Switzerland flag on the left chest (he didn't have a template for it but he customized one for me anyways), which I thought was super awesome!! Keep in mind again... It was prime time and he was backed up on orders, like baaaacked up. And he did inform me on that but I continued to tell him how desperate I was for these letters because I wanted my kids to have it in their formals day. He reassured me that he'd do that best that he could and he would have it by 2 o'clock the day of, which was perfect (he actually finished my letters by 12 o'clock instead of 2!!! 2 HOURS EARLY!!!)! AND he didn't even charge me a rush fee!!! ON TOP OF THAT, he even validated my 10% off yelp.. Sorry Edgar! Money was a struggle when I had to buy my kids so many things! But super glad that you were very accommodating and sweet throughout our whole transaction. All in all, Edgar is a very delightful, responsible, and meticulous person who will not only get the job done, but excel in his work. I have never been more satisfied with my sets of letters that I've ordered than I was with Edgar's in regards to pricing, material, and service. GET YOUR EMBROIDERY DONE WITH EDGAR!!! It'll be one of the best decisions you've made yet. Thank you again for all that you did for me! See, I promised you I wouldn't be one of those "don't worry I promise to leave a great review!...but never does it," kind of customers! :) my kids loved their sets. Thank you again!!!! read more

Graphic Affect - Sorry bad picture of the letters but they came out amaaaazing! - Screen Printing/T-Shirt Printing Near Me - San Jose, California

Edgar and his team, what can I say: Professional, great work and wonderful people. Edgar made my wife and I feel extremely comfortable from the first moment we met. Because we were unsure how we wanted our garment embroidered (color, position and size), Edgar took the time to assist us. After we decided, he ran a sample on-the-spot, to see how it would look. I am sure he could not do this every time, but it was a nice touch! We decided to pivot all our business from two other shops to Edgar and team. He has already done t-shirts, jackets/vests and backpacks for me and my team. Edgar has put our design on items we purchased (vests and backpacks) and we have also bought units from him as well, t-shirts. There was no comparison in work product. Hands down the best we have seen in the South Bay; we have looked at over 15+ shops. read more

A big thank you to the people at Graphic Affect Branding (GAB). Our group, the Club 49 Tailgating Crew, was looking to have a new logo designed and T shirts as well. GAB was able to work with us as we brainstormed ideas on a new logo. It had been many years since we last updated our logo or had any shirts made. We sent some photos and some ideas and they came back with two versions of a logo. Both were really good. We decided to have shirts made and also some pullover sweaters made as well. The embroidery came out great. The pullovers make us look like an Olympic team walking into the stadium. We are already looking to have more stuff made at GAB, as the options are endless. Thank you guys once again. read more

Graphic Affect branding never disappoints! I needed my graduation stoles embroidered and they were so responsive and kind! Even though they were super busy and had many other graduation orders, they still kept up their quality and customer service! It is pricier than other embroidery places but it's worth it knowing they won't botch it like other places. They also do single orders but they're most known for their big batch orders for the Greek community. I'll keep recommending this place to everyone! read more
