What Are Custom Name Patches?

Names reflect our personalities, don’t they? So why not create a personalized hat, jeans, jacket, cap, bag, or other items with a custom name patch.

Featuring your name or your business name on your clothing instantly makes your items personal and unique. Mix and match your favorite or brand colors to create standout designs. Name patches are perfect for workwear, giveaway bags, sports teams, hobbies, clubs, and personalized clothes and accessories. They can be made in various shapes, sizes, colors, and fonts to match specific requirements.

Find The Right Material That Works For You

The type of patch you pick creates the unique style to be featured on your clothing. Keep in mind that each patch has its particular properties, so be sure to choose the right material for your needs.

Woven Patches - These patches are crafted from threads intricately woven together, allowing for detailed designs and fine details. They boast a smooth appearance with exceptional clarity and a clean finish. Not only are they durable, but they are also resistant to fraying, making them perfect for logos and designs where precision is essential.

Embroidered patches - Created by stitching thread onto a fabric backing, resulting in a textured, raised design that gives a three-dimensional look. They are highly durable and offer a classic appearance, making them commonly used for uniforms, branding, and decorative purposes where a traditional look is desired.

PVC patches - Constructed from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a type of flexible plastic, PVC patches have a rubber-like appearance with a high level of detail and vibrant colors, often with a 3D effect. Extremely durable, waterproof, and resistant to harsh conditions, they are suitable for outdoor gear, tactical gear, and any application requiring durability and flexibility.


TPU patches - Made from thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), a flexible and durable material, TPU patches have a smooth and sleek appearance with a slightly rubbery texture. They can be either transparent or opaque. Highly durable and resistant to abrasions and environmental factors, these patches are often used in high-end fashion, sportswear, and technical apparel for a modern, sleek look.


Leather patches - Crafted from genuine or synthetic leather, leather patches are often embossed or debossed with a design. They have a classic and sophisticated appearance with a rich, textured feel. Very durable, especially genuine leather which ages well, they are popular in fashion, luxury items, and products aiming for a vintage or luxury aesthetic.
