Awesome partner for a rush order!
I had a last minute order that needed to be rushed. I contacted several vendors who were unable to help me. I had already given up and then came across The/Studio.
Within a hour of my initial inquiry, someone reached out to me by phone. The sales rep was super responsive, helping to streamline the initial design/approval process and communicating with me throughout.
Where others couldn’t meet my timeline or refused to create a design using the low resolution image I had available, The/Studio was ready to go from the beginning. The artists created an amazing design and my order was delivered exactly when promised.
We ended up doubling the order because of such high demand. Everyone was blown away by the quality and design. We will definitely be using The/Studio again.

I found the studio extremely easy to work with. I was a bit nervous when I went to order some woven patches as I put my logo in that it wouldn't turn out the way I was hoping, but they were right there the whole time with follow ups and checking to ensure my complete satisfaction.. I would highly recommend them to any small business owner

Terrible company
Submitted an item for order. Proof wasn't even the right item. Wasted 3 days trying to get in contact with them. They won't refund my money.

First time customer with a dream & A great experience.
Sometime last year in 2023, I began searching online with the intent of finding a hat making company who specialized in FULLY CUSTOM hat making.
A vast majority of websites i found thus far, would only let you customize small or specific areas of the hat, and overall just not offer the option to customize the hat from scratch down to the very fabrics, shape and designs. The/Studio was the exception.
I had never heard of The/Studio before, and i most CERTAINLY wasn't aware of their credibility and legitimacy; but they were the ONLY website that i could find that offered the level of customizing i was looking for. So, i went forward with them!
The person who worked with me right off the bat by the name of Kristine Carrey, was EXTREMELY helpful through and through. They were able to answer and guide me through some of the questions i had about their website, as well as overall creation process!
Since this hat was meant to be more of a personal item for myself, I had no need for ordering more than two copies, and i was not sure if i would be able to go through with ordering just two copies. But they reassured me that this was still fine, even if it falls out of the "10 hats minimum" price deal they were offering. Which i didn't mind paying a little more for at all.
After working through the initial negotiations and sending in my designs for what the hat would look like (shout outs to Pukka.inc's hat mockup making webpage!), i was quickly set up with an account to keep a watchful eye on the order, and it's development process. An estimated time frame was also presented to give me an idea of when i could expect to see an visual update of the mock-up for reviewing.
There were some minor hiccups with using the files i sent in, but were quickly fixed by me ASAP, and before i knew it, we were quickly on the road to final approval process to have it sent to me!
I couldn't be any happier with the results and i can't possibly thank this company enough for helping to bring this EXTREMELY ambitious idea of mine to life.
I most certainly WILL be back in the near future if i should ever have a need for creating other hat ideas, or similar designs!!

Great Company, Great Service
A fantastic company that worked with me very closely and with great patience as I fumbled about. Gigi Perla specifically was a blessing and the foundational reason I chose The Studio for work on my project.

Great experience!
Communication was great! The design edit and approval process couldn't have been better. The pins arrived early and are really well done!

The service at The Studio was top tier! I was provided updates at each level of the process. My coins were amazing and went above my expectations. I am now able to recognize exceptional Soldiers for their hard work and dedication. I will order again.

I have used The Studio for several years and have never been disappointed. I ordered late one year, and they were amazing and made sure I had my order on time. I cannot express enough how wonderful their staff is to work with.

They were very responsive to my request, providing a mockup quickly based on my specifications, and turning it around very promptly. Staff were helpful and prices reasonable. I will certainly use them again!

Not a positive experience anymore.
I have worked with this company on many projects through the years. The last couple of runs have had issues, and this current one is all out hell.
Every few days I get an email request to "approve" something I already approved weeks ago. I have done this a few times now. I asked if the first approval was even produced and no response. I asked if the 2nd approval was produced, but there is no response.
Also, they like to send the approval emails on Fridays (good strategy to pretend to buy weekend time).
This is not the company I worked with years ago. Whoever is in charge clearly does not know how to run a company nor has a vision of success.
I am becoming so frustrated that I am considering starting my own embroidery business to go into competition.
Also, I never asked for a timeline. I just kept getting pushed week after week. I started this in May, and we are now in mid-July.
P.S. I suspect they will reach out through here faster than messaging or email or phone call. So if I get a response that does not kick the issue down another week or 2, then this is worth it.

Terrible customer Service
This company has extremely poor customer service. They will take multiple days to respond to the simplest of questions, thus causing delays and continuously pushing your delivery time back. They might respond in an hour, they might respond in 2 days, or you might have to hunt them down on day 5 and ask why your question hasn't been addressed. And if you complain I recommend going with another company.

Super Good
My projects with The Studio have all turned out super good. Each one was shepherded along with care and good advice from Studio staff. They've helped me make patches and lapel pins that my clients treasure. Bravo!

Incredible service, great product, wonderful team to work with
We came to The/Studio needing help with a VERY rush order due to complications on our end and they came through beyond our wildest dreams. Not only did they listen to our needs, they were honest about what we could expect, worked with us to rush the order, were upfront on the fees, made sure that I was keeping up with all the communications they needed (which were not at all onerous, but the rushed nature of our job meant things had to happen very quickly). The designers were great to work with and were able to turn out something spectacular in extraordinary circumstances. This company proves that customer service and customer success are still alive and well in 2024.
When we got the products, our team was beyond thrilled with the outcome. We are already planning our next purchases and know that we will be in great hands when we do.

Proven excellent results on 2 projects
I have done two projects with thestudio.com. Both turned out very well (an embroidered patch and a challenge coin). I have already recommended them to friends who want to do something similar. I did have some problems visualizing the coin through the draft review process to see what the item will look like. It was not clear the depth of the engraving or how fine the detail could be to turn out well. The designers and I went back and forth using their draft tool a couple times and got it the way I wanted it. The execution of the physical patch and the physical coins are simply amazing! They look and feel great and I have received many compliments on their quality.

My overall experience
The staff from The Studio was the most professional and patient people that I have ever worked with! The coin that I had in mind they made countless edits at no charge to make sure I was 100% pleased with it and when I received the coins they were so much better than the picture of the sample. They gave me a huge discount and I can’t thank them enough for that. I have already recommended The Studio to my peers and people that are looking to design coins. I will also be using them again as long as I need things designed!! Thank you so much!!!

Attention to detail and amazing quality
Throughout the whole process, customer service was letting me know which stage of the project we were in. I had a hard date I needed, and they pulled it off. Amazing product quality. Thank you

Rush Order, no problem.....
I have had work done by the studio in the past. This order was different in that I had a crazy time line and needed it fat. The customer service people were patient and extremely helpful every step of the way on this order. Not only did they get my order out to me 3 days before the event where these were to be the central focus, Their team followed up with me every step of the way to the delivery.
Thank you "The Studio" team!!!
