Patch Types & Materials

Silicone patches are lightweight and flexible with a modern look. They are commonly used on hats, bags, and contemporary apparel.

Chenille patches feature a plush, raised texture and are commonly associated with varsity jackets, team apparel, and collegiate branding.

Metflex patches combine reflective or metallic-style finishes with flexible materials, making them suitable for high-visibility apparel and branded uniforms.

Leather patches are commonly used for premium branding on hats, jackets, denim, and fashion accessories. They provide a natural texture and long-lasting appearance suitable for lifestyle and apparel branding.
