General Information
How are items personalized?
Personalization is burned directly into the material using high-precision laser engraving. This creates a clean, crisp, and long-lasting result that will never peel, fade, or rub off.
What items can be personalized?
Just about everything we offer can be personalized with a laser engraving. The few products that cannot be personalized will not have any options to choose before adding to cart.
Where can items be personalized?
Each item is unique with different areas that can be personalized, and those areas can be selected on each individual product page before adding to cart. If an area cannot be personalized, there will be no selection available for that area of the item.
What font and design choices are there?
Each item has an "Engraving Options" link above the dropdown menu where you select the areas you want personalized. Clicking this link will show you the font and design options available for that particular item.
Enter your font/design choices, along with all personalized information and additional details in the provided text box on the product page before adding to cart.
Are there character or word limits?
When it comes to personalized gifts, remember less is more. Shorter messages almost always look cleaner and more intentional.
We recommend no more than 20-30 words as a rule of thumb.
* No profanity, please. We are a family-oriented company and do not engrave profanity of any kind. Thank you for understanding.
Can I mix and use more than one font?
Yes, however we recommend no more than two fonts per area.
Will I receive a digital proof prior to shipping?
Digital proofs can significantly delay processing and shipping times. In an effort to process and get all of our customers orders shipped in a timely manner, we do not send digital proofs.
Rest assured, we take great care to format the personalization for the best possible result in terms of font size and layout. If we have any questions or need further clarification, we will contact you via email or phone.
You may also opt to receive a digital proof for an additional $5.
Can you engrave my handwriting?
Yes! Any of our items can be engraved with your handwriting. Being this is a special request and not a built-in option, please contact us for instructions on how to order and submit your handwriting for engraving.
Can you engrave photos?
No, at this time we do not engrave photos. We only engrave text and limited designs as well as custom handwriting.
Can you engrave custom logos?
We do offer custom logo engraving, however because there are limitations and not all logos can be engraved, please contact us prior to placing an order so that we can make sure it can be engraved. If it can, there is a one time $18 setup fee for all custom logos.
Wallets & Leather Products
How dark is the engraving on leather?
Engraving contrast varies by leather color:
- Light Brown and Gray leather produces the darkest, highest contrast results.
- Dark Brown and Black leather offers a "tone-on-tone" look. These are more subtle and may need to be held at an angle in the light to be read clearly.
Where is the personalization on wallets placed?
Personalization on the front/exterior of wallets will be placed in the lower right-hand corner.
Personalization on the inside of wallets will be centered on the left/right pocket(s).
What can be engraved on the front of a wallet?
The front/exterior engraving area is best suited for:
- Initials
- A name
- A small monogram or design option
Due to space and aesthetics, only short text is allowed on the front.
What can be engraved on the inside of a wallet?
This is where your personalized message goes to make it super special and memorable. You may also choose to have one of our design options engraved in the inside pocket area instead of wording.
