I gave a customer a companyies brochore that was given to me by a friend for seats that had sport team logos on it.
I called up today to get prices, they were beyond redic! Does anyone know of any companies that do this? Logos for the jets, giants, miami hurricanes

Check with a custom embroidry or upholstery shop in your area. This would allow you to use any seat by removing the cover and having the logos applied.

Lonny,
I think that Fortress will do anything that you want. They aren't cheap, but great quality.

Lonny,
The reason you don't find lots of places selling seats with Logo's on them, is that the manufacturer must obtain a license from the team to use the Logo. The important details are usually something like filling out way too much paperwork, having to keep good records of how many goods with the logo are produced, and paying $$'s to the franchise based on the number of goods produced.
Any reputable embroidery shop will likely refuse to produce the logo without the license. If the franchise uncovers knowledge of the logo being used without license, they will sue. I have a friend in this business, and he knows of two shops that were almost put out of business by such a lawsuit. My friend said in both cases that the number of goods sold was less than 20, yet the NFL pursued this to the fullest extent.
I would be careful, if something were to happen, you might be defending yourself and your business against such a lawsuit by a major sports franchise. Remember, franchise is a fancy word for lots of lawyers looking over everything for an opportunity to sue.

I don't know if this is the company you were looking at, but BASS industries can do team logos and the seats are VERY nice. They are pricey though.
Good luck.
