Patch Types
Every Patch Style Imaginable
Choose the construction that fits your design, garment, and budget.
Merrow Border Patches
Classic overlocked edge with a raised thread border. The traditional patch look that is durable, clean, and timeless. Best for simple shapes like circles, squares, and rectangles.
Laser Cut Patches
Precision laser-cut edges for intricate shapes that merrow stitching cannot achieve. Perfect for detailed logos, custom outlines, and die-cut designs with tight corners.
Woven Patches
Fine thread woven patches with photographic detail. Supports smaller text and tighter details than embroidered patches. Ideal for badges and uniform insignia.
Chenille Patches
Fuzzy, raised chenille yarn for varsity letters and mascot patches. The classic letterman jacket look that is bold, textured, and nostalgic.
PVC Patches
Rubber-like PVC patches for tactical gear, outdoor equipment and heavy-use apparel. Waterproof, fade-proof, and virtually indestructible in any environment.
Iron-On Patches
Heat-seal backing for easy at-home application. Just press with an iron for 30 seconds with no sewing required. Creates a permanent bond that survives the wash.
