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.

Reviews
Consistent quality custom production of our unique logo, hoop/loop patches which merited repeat larger orders for our Vets To Drones organization. The Staffs professionalism simplified ordering and the prompt turn around was greatly appreciated!
Everything about our T-shirt order from the Monterey Company was OUTSTANDING. If your order happens to be small (as ours was), don't worry; they will treat you like you're one of their top customers. The order process was smooth and user-friendly from beginning to end; the communication was frequent and clear; and the quality of the final product was excellent (and captured more detail than we had imagined). Additionally, the T-shirt material was soft and durable - very top notch! And most of all, their suggestions for improving on our original artwork were perfect and added nice touches to our original ideas. Not to mention their pricing options - VERY reasonable! James and the rest of the team were a pleasure to work with. We will gladly use them again in the future!
I was a bit skeptical at first when I saw their ad. But boy did they deliver. The product looks great definitely will be ordering more!
We had what is probably considered a smaller order since we are not a company, but we had t-shirts made for an event. The entire process from beginning to end was thorough, professional, and there was great attention to detail so we would get EXACTLY what we wanted at a really excellent price. The quality of the tshirts was excellent. I would not hesitate to use Monterey Company again. Everyone we interacted with was wonderful. Thank you!
I just wanted to take a moment to share a few things about a company that I have been working with for roughly 6 years. My main contact is Josh Knowles and he is AMAZING. Monterey is professional, has quality products and is very easy to work with. Their customer service is 2nd to none and I am sure we will continue to have them produce our patches for many years to come!
Monterey Company created custom key chains that we can give to our clients with closings. They are great quality and we are very happy.
Excellent customer service from start to finish! Very smooth process, understood exactly what I needed, and the final product was perfect! Definitely using them moving forward.
