Default pressing vinyl on button-down jerseys?

am looking to purchase a vinyl cutter soon. after looking into various designs in sports outfiiting.........i was wondering if anyone has tried to press a vinyl team name across the chest of a button-down jersey. i know the best look would be to have this type of design embroidered but if anyone has tried this successfully it would be great to hear from you. pics would even be better. thanks all!

I would split the design in half and place each side and align to the proper placement. I would be careful not to melt the buttons. ... JB

I have not personally done one yet. I made a cut file for another shop that did them. They said they came out great and the customer was very happy. Here is a video on making the cut file (at least how I did it).
