Tips on Ordering Custom Woven Patches
Woven patches are capable of a finer level of detail for your custom products. They are essentially custom woven labels cut into a shape, but we can attach a light felt, heat seal, Velcro or sticker backing. We can also sew your patches using a single needle or Over-lock stitching to help define the outside edges for a more defined logo.

Tips on Ordering Custom Embroidered Patches
Embroidered patches, being crafted from a fabric backing, boast a thicker profile compared to woven patches. This attribute makes them an ideal choice when seeking enhanced durability and distinct levels of dimension in your patches. Additionally, if you aim to prioritize longevity while preserving intricate detailing, embroidered patches prove to be the perfect fit for your custom patch needs.
- Be certain about your desired placement
- Think about what backing will be best for your project
- Triple check the measurements
- Avoid line weights un 4 pixels
- Always request a sample

What Products are Best for Wholesale Custom Patches?
Custom hats and custom hoodies are the most popular garments for custom woven patches but that shouldn’t limit you. Anything can be a canvas for custom patches, like tote bags or bomber jackets
Backing Options for Custom Woven Patches
Selecting the right backing for your customized woven patches is a crucial final detail in the production journey. Now, you must carefully consider the placement of your custom embroidered patch and the preferred method of attachment. This decision will play a significant role in ensuring that your patches are not only visually appealing but also securely and seamlessly integrated into your desired products or garments.
- Sew On- The patch is directly sewn onto the garment
- Iron On- An adhesive is placed onto the patch which is activated by heat
Both options, sew-on and iron-on, offer their own set of advantages and limitations. The sew-on method provides slightly more sturdiness, but it may come with longer turnaround times during the application process. On the other hand, the iron-on option, with proper care, can boast a lifespan comparable to sewn-on patches. However, for those seeking a custom garment with exceptional longevity, the best approach is to combine both methods, known as “Transfer and Sew.” This hybrid technique ensures a durable and long-lasting outcome, providing you with custom patches that stand the test of time.

Frequently Asked Questions

In over a decade in business, we have yet to run into a color limit.
Price for custom woven patches are determined by size and custom embroidered patches are priced based on stitch count. To learn more reach out to one of our helpful account reps.
We make sublimated patches which are very similar to dtg patches. However, there is a two week turnaround time so be sure to be mindful of your timeline when ordering.
No, we are able to make patches as large as you want. The only limitation would be the size of your garment. Again, price is determined by stitch count so large patches come with a larger price tag.
Woven patches are larger embroidered patches that are made by weaving thread and attaching it to a backing. Woven patches are commonly used for decorative purposes and are sewn or ironed onto the desired item.
Woven labels are smaller pieces of fabric that contains information like brand names, logos, care instructions, or size labels. They are thinner and more flexible compared to woven patches. They are typically sewn onto or onto the fabric using a sewing machine.

Yes – we always recommend ordering patch samples before doing a full run to ensure your vision is achieved.
Yes – we have a number of application methods for custom patches. If you are feeling uncertain, we would love to help.
A better question would be what can’t we attach custom patches to! We have over a decade of experience and ready to bring your vision to life. In our opinion the best canvas for custom patches are Custom Patch Hats or Custom Hoodies.
There is no one right answer, it depends on the garment and the fabric but we always recommend sewing the
patch on as it is the most secure.
