How to Place An Order For Custom Sew-On Patches

Sew on patches are suitable for nearly every purpose, every kind of business or artist who needs to showcase their personalized logo, emblems, symbols, or other artwork. To top it off, placing an order for these with Elegant Patches is fairly simple!

Step 1: Graphic Designing For Patch

Select artwork for custom sew on patch. Make sure you're choosing the right colors and patterns for the type of patch you need. Also, high-resolution images are preferred for the best results; low-quality images are not ideal as there should be sufficient clarity for the computer software to process the design impeccably.

What Makes Custom Sew On Patches Useful?

Sew on patches hold an esteemed place in the world of custom patches, leading over both iron on patches and Velcro patches for a number of distinct reasons.

First, stitching a patch onto a piece of clothing or accessory guarantees that it’s latched on well. You don't have to worry about the patch coming off in the wash or being peeled off during rough handling. While we assure you our iron on patches and Velcro patches are no less adequate when it comes to attaching ability, we do agree that machine-embroidered sew on patches are ideal when you need patches for sports jerseys that face tussles and falls, for totes that you use every day, or for tactical gear that faces the harsh wind, water, and other weather elements.

Custom sew on patches stand their ground no matter what—provided you go with quality sewing work, of course! We recommend you choose professional stitching for business and other formal uses to ensure the integrity and durability of your sew on patches, no matter what you use these on.

Jeans & Jackets

Custom sew-on patches are the perfect choice for jeans and jackets. Jacket patches are typically large, especially biker club patches or patches to represent a sports team. In either case, sew on patches for jackets are ideal. The same goes for jeans; one of the most-worn items of clothing, jeans face wear and tear faster than any other article of apparel. Hence, sew on patches are the way to go!

Caps, Hats, & Bags

When you have tricky, multi-textured surfaces such as that of a cap or bag to work with--, iron-on and Velcro patches may not fare as well as sewed on patches when it comes to longevity and great appearance. Moreover, if the intended surface is a non-fabric bag—such as a PU leather bag—then sewing the patch on is your only practical option.


Uniform Patches

For daily-use formal use patches such as uniforms for school, colleges, business staff, retail teams, and so on, sew on patches are ideal. You want a clean application and a strong one too—so that multiple laundry cycles do not make the patch come off. Sew on clothes patches may require some effort at first, but they are no-fuss patches in the long run.

Custom Sew on Patches FAQs

Why Us

Q: Why should I choose sew-on patches over other backings?

When it comes to application, sew on patches are the most durable. They are also compatible with a multitude of surfaces, fabric and non-fabric, clothing and accessories.

Q: Do you offer stitching services for sew-on patches?

No, at the current time, we do not offer any stitching purposes. However, our customer services can offer you information regarding the application of your custom patches, should you need any guidance.

Q: Is it better to hand stitch or machine stitch custom patches?

It depends on your budget and the surface you need patches on. For branding purposes, such as adding patches for a line of shirts, professional machine stitching is ideal. Hand stitching is ideal for complex surfaces such as bags, hats, and caps.

Q: Are custom sew on patches safe to wash?

It depends on the type of patch. Generally, fabric patches such as embroidered, chenille, or woven sew-on patches are safe to wash. If you have machine-embroidered sew on patches, you don’t have to worry about these coming off.

Q: How many days in advance should I place my order?

We take 5-7 days to process your patch order. Shipping time depends on your state and area. We recommend you place your order at least 15 days prior to when you need these.
