Frequently Asked Questions
How much do custom patches cost?
The final price does depend on the patch's style, size, quantity, and customization upgrades. Larger quantities can be as little as $0.29 per piece. The best way to get started is to fill out our quote request form, and receive a quote free of charge.
How do I turn an image into a patch?
We suggest dye-sublimated patches for image patches. Sublimated patches utilize dyed threads and achieve extremely high detail and color gradients.
Are patches cheaper than embroidery?
That does depend on the patch design and style. Generally, woven and embroidered patches are cheaper than standard direct embroidery. While leather and PVC rubber tend to be more expensive. For a complete guide to patch types read this blog titled The Ultimate Guide to Different Patch Types.
Is it better to iron-on or sew-on patches?
Regarding attachment methods, we highly recommend sewing your patches onto clothing and hats. Sewing can take skill from a seamstress, but they adhere for a very long time. Custom Iron-on patches include glue added to the backside of the patch that is heat-activated to bond to the clothing. We suggest using a heat press to affix heat transfer patches rather than a household iron. For a deeper dive on iron-on versus sew-on attachment check-out this blog titled How to Apply Patches: Iron-On vs Sew-On for Hats and Clothing.
What is the average production time?
Custom patches can range from as little as 5 businessdays to as much as 25 days, depending on our current production schedule. Custom embroidered patches are generally 8 to 12 days for production. Rush services are available. Look out for free shipping and first-order promos by signing up for our newsletter at the bottom of this page. Also ask your sales rep for samples of patches to see the different varieties. Free shipping of samples within the United States.
What is the minimum order quantity for patches?
Our minimum quantity is 50 for most custom patch orders.
What colors are available for custom patches?
We match solid coated Pantone colors for all the patch colors. Ask your sales representative for a list of all the Pantone colors. We also offer metallic, glow-in-the-dark, and reflective thread options for certain patch types.
What border types are offered with custom patches?
There are three different patch border types for thread style patches: merrow border, heat cut border, and laser cut border. Here is the link to an article explaining the differences between the our thread style borders. PVC rubber and leather patches do not include any type of borders, but can include a sew-channel if requested.

Have placed two orders, both turned out great. Communication was stronger the first time, but everything worked out and we got the goods by when we were promised.
I recently ordered custom patches and they exceeded my expectations! Josh helped me with the patches and he was extremely helpful. I am definitely going to be placing future orders!
Great experience with Eric and the team! Consistent communication throughout the process to make sure expectations were clear and our lapel pins were exactly how we wanted them. Pleasantly pleased with the craftsmanship and the (((supersonic))) shipping!
Ordered some keychains for our business through this company, Amy was really helpful and patient. The keychains came out wonderful and planning to order more! 11/10 service.
Amazing customer service! Very helpful with the design in mind and was very happy the way the patches came out!
