Embroidered Hat Patches
Patches on hats with embroidery give the best of both worlds—they offer a unique embroidered look and a casual appearance. We’ve helped make designs for everyone from nature centers to baseball players to police and fire departments.
Custom embroidered patches allow you to customize everything, from the shape to the colors to the overall look. Offering the option to add more detail than direct embroidery, they can represent your company for years to come.
Simple shapes can have a Merrow Edge and are stitched directly to your hat, and more complex images can have satin stitching on the border or heat-pressed. See our blog artcile on finding the best patch shape with your design.
The process of sublimation involves transferring dye to fabric by using heat. They are a great way to add a lot of detail and color to your logo and allow you to perfectly recreate things like emblems or insignias.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the best patch sizes for a hat?
Whether you're looking for an embroidered design or a custom patch, we'll make sure your design stands out. Our standard patch sizing falls between 2" and 2.25" tall depending on the hat and a with the width adjusted according to its proportions. Start by measuring up both sides and divide them by two for the actual patch size. If you opt for direct embroidery, your logo can be up to 4.5" wide by 3” tall - the perfect size to fit almost any cap or hat perfectly. For more information on finding the best patch size for hats, read our blog on Choosing the Right Patch Size for Hats.
What type of patch looks the best on a hat?
The answer to this question depends heavily on your logo. Simple artwork can be embroidered, printed, or made from leather or PVC, while more complicated images may need to use printing techniques like dye sublimation in full color or be woven.
How much does it cost to make a custom patch hat?
The regular price for a custom patch hat varies depending on the brand and quantity you would like to order. For example, if you need to order 36 Richardson 112 Hats, then that will cost about $21 each. In contrast, 150 hats would only cost $15.00 per hat. The pricing will include a custom patch sewn directly to the hats. Adhesive can be used on custom shapes that follow the outline of your logo.
Can I get a sample before starting production of my order?
Yes, ask your sales rep for a free sample photo option. We always provide digital proofs before your order goes into production as well.
How are patches applied to hats?
Hat patches are typically sewn directly onto a hat using industrial sewing machines similar to what a cobbler might use. A heavy-duty needle is used with the thread color of your choosing. Applying velcro to the back of a patch is done with the same sewing machines if you choose this option. With some hats having an unusual outline, the patch can be heat pressed and also stitched if the shape is not too difficult to follow the border. Check-out this article on Sewing Custom Patches to Hats for more information.
What is the difference between debossed and engraving?
Debossing and embossing give a deeper impression to the leather, while engraving is faster and offers a burned-style technique. Check out this blog article explaining the difference: Debossed vs. Laser Engraved Leather Patches: Choosing the Right Custom Look.
What is the best hat manufacturer to choose from?
It's no secret that the best hat brands for companies to use are these top manufacturers. These keep good inventory levels, and because they're available through nationwide distribution, you can bet your bottom dollar there'll be a wide variety of colors to select from!
