FredFloris Personalise Guide

Heat Imprint/Debossing

At FredFloris, we believe that every accessory should be a reflection of your personal style. That’s why we offer the option to personalise your leather product at no extra cost with our heat imprint/debossing service. 

How It Works: Our heat imprint/debossing process involves heating up brass letters and pressing them into the leather. This creates an indentation on the leather, leaving a lasting imprint that adds a special touc. You can choose between gold metal foil debossing or plain heat debossing (also called blind debossing).

Font Options: We offer two font options for your personalised goods: Times New Roman and a cursive handwriting that is very similar to Commercial Script BT. Times New Roman is a classic and timeless font, while the cursive handwriting adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to your product.

Letter Options: You can choose from A-Z English letters in both large and small sizes and Numbers 0-9, Symbols (. & , – ‘), allowing you to add initials or a name to your product.

Recommendations: To make the most of our personalisation service, we recommend adding initials or your first and last name to your FredFloris product. This adds a personal touch and makes your product truly one-of-a-kind.

Built-in Application for Laser Engraving


800+ Google Font
: Ready to use

Shapes: High-quality and pre-designed shapes, drag and drop.

Great UI/UX: Simple and straight forward user-friendly program.

For commercial reasons it is only possible to choose google fonts from the customizer. We can also do most of the fonts that are installed in default Microsoft Windows. Please contact us for custom order.

The application installed on our servers are currently located in Germany. Your information and designs will not be shared or stored with a third-party.


Usage Guide:

The customizer is a standalone system integrated into our website. The customizer has its own cart that you can use to checkout. In the customizer you can see and change between all products that are available for personalizing. You can view and edit designs that have already been added to the cart in the application. If you close the application and reopen it, you will still see your designs and will be able to edit them if you have added them to the cart.

We use SVG or PDF files in the customizer instead of real images of the products, we do this as these filetypes are better in maintaining the integrity and size of your design thus making the end result as close as possible to your design. We reserve the right to make small changes in your design if we believe that the end result would be better, this can include changing the size of the font or moving the text. We will contact you in case there is a need for a larger change in your design. Small variations between your design and the actual laser engraving might still arise, this is not a valid reason for making a complaint claim.

On most designs we have added borders that you need to stay within when adding your texts and shapes.


Gaining Access

You will gain access to the customizer application by clicking on the customize button on the product pages (see image 3), the button will only be viewable on products that we offer personalizing on, which is most of the leather products that we make.
