Custom Patches

Embroidered

Embroidered patches are a timeless way to add flair to any hat, jacket, backpack, or piece of apparel. They offer high levels of detail and a classic look that is perfect for identifying members of a team, club, or organization.

Woven

Woven patches are made using a special loom that weaves the thread together tightly, resulting in a patch with high amount of resolution and clarity. This makes them ideal for designs with small details and lettering. In fact, the level of detail in a woven patch is often compared to photo quality.

PVC

These are an increasingly popular alternative to Traditional embroidered patches. PVC, or polyvinyl chloride, is a type of plastic that is both durable and flexible. They are also waterproof and resistant to fading, making them perfect for outdoor gear or swimwear.

Printed

Photographs, logos, and other designs with subtle details and gradients can be difficult to reproduce with traditional embroidery. However, with printed patches, these designs can be reproduced with fidelity. Screen printing and digital printing are the best options for printed patches, as they allow for the use of vibrant colors and fine details.

Leather

Leather patches and labels are a popular choice for adding an organic look to fashion accessories. They can be embossed with a design of your choice adding a luxury style and durability. For a more animal friendly option we can make them from faux leather. They are an excellent way to add a unique finishing touch to your accessories.

Sublimated

Sublimated patches are a truly remarkable product. The photorealistic printing process used to create them produces stunning, full-color patches with intricate details and designs. And because the printing is done on a special type of fabric, the patches are industrial wash capable.

Backing

When it comes to patch backing, you have a few different options to choose from.

• All patches have a sewing channel or recessed line including the ones with plain backing.
• Velcro is one option, but you need to sew the hook and loop system to the clothing.
• Self-adhesive is another easy option that is ready to apply without an iron, but it’s not permanent, patches can fall after washing the cloth.
• Iron-on makes a stronger bond than self-adhesive, but it’s not available for PVC patches.

Border / Edges

We offer a variety of border options to choose from. The alternatives below are available for embroidered, woven and printed patches.

• Laser cut: this type of border allow custom shapes with sharp edges that can be left frayed or heat sealed for extra durability.
• Merrow Border: They provide a robust outlining around the exterior edges of your patch, which is ideal for simple classic shapes such as round, shield, square or rectangles.
• For customers who want a simple, no-frills patch, we also offer the option of leaving the border off entirely.

Embroidery Coverage

Embroidery coverage is important to consider when determining the size and placement of your design.

• A 50% coverage means that half of the patch will be embroidered, while a 100% coverage means that the entire patch will be covered in stitches.
• The decision of how much coverage you want is largely dependent on the design itself. If you have a simple logo, you may want to go for a 50% coverage so that it doesn’t look too busy.
• On the other hand, if you have a detailed design, you may want to go for 100% coverage so that all the details are visible.

Patch Color

Regardless of the type of patch you choose, our team of experienced graphic designers will color match your design colors to the closest thread or PMS color available.

Patch Threads

Additionally we not only offer premium threads options but we also offer special metallic thread colors ideal to give your custom patches shiny elements that stand out from the others.

Patch Shape

Geometrical shapes such as round, square, rectangle, and polygon are all popular choices for custom patches. For a more unique look, irregular or complex shapes can also be created.

Reflective Patches

Custom reflective patches are an excellent way to improve the visibility of your clothing, bags, or other gear. The reflective twill makes the patches highly visible in daytime and generates a powerful reflection of artificial light at night.

Glow in the Dark

Glow in the dark patches are a fun and easy way to add some flair to your clothing or gear. Our custom patches are made from high quality materials that are durable and long lasting. We offer two different types of glow in the dark patches: PVC and embroidery.

2D and 3D PVC

Both styles are made using layers that will give them a 3 dimensional look, however, while 2D allow only square angles, 3D give us the opportunity of creating domes. Just consider that 3D patches are a little more expensive to produce.
