Turn your design into stitches.
Custom embroidered patches for businesses, clubs, uniforms, events, creators, teams and ideas that deserve something better than an off-the-shelf badge.
DESIGN embroidered
WHY EMBROIDERY?
Classic patch texture. Proper stitched detail.
Embroidered patches are built with thread stitched into a fabric base, creating the raised texture most people picture when they think of a traditional patch.
They're brilliant for bold logos, lettering, uniforms, clubs, workwear, merch and designs where you want the stitching itself to be part of the look.
WHERE THEY WORK
Made for more than jackets.
Brand clothing without printing directly onto every garment.
Badges, achievements, membership and identity.
Memorable event merchandise and limited-run patches.
Create a product people can wear, collect or customise with.
IS EMBROIDERY RIGHT FOR YOUR DESIGN?
Sometimes yes.
Sometimes we'd recommend
something else.
Embroidery is fantastic for bold artwork, strong lettering and designs that benefit from visible stitched texture.
Very tiny text, fine lines, gradients or highly detailed artwork may reproduce better as a woven, printed or combined construction.
That's why we review the actual artwork before recommending how your patch should be made.
THE EMBROIDERED LOOK
Raised.
Textured.
Properly patchy.
Thread gives embroidered patches depth and character that flat print simply doesn't have.
YOUR ARTWORK DOESN'T NEED TO KNOW HOW TO BE A PATCH
That's our bit.
Send us the logo, artwork, sketch, AI-generated design or idea. We'll look at what will actually work at the finished size and help translate it into embroidery.
FROM IDEA TO FINISHED PATCH
How custom embroidery works.
Send us the design
Finished artwork is great, but a logo, reference image, sketch or clear idea can be enough to get the conversation started.
We review it
We look at detail, lettering, finished size, colours, intended use and how the design will translate into stitches.
Artwork & sampling
Your design is prepared for production and a pre-production sample gives you an opportunity to review the result before the full run.
You approve it
If something needs adjusting, we can review changes before the main quantity enters production.
Production begins

Finished & delivered 🎉
Your finished patches are checked and prepared for dispatch or collection.
BUILD YOUR PATCH
The decisions we'll help you make.
Size & shape
Tell us the finished dimensions you need. We can also advise if the artwork needs more space for details or lettering to reproduce properly.
Thread colours
We can work from your artwork and colour references and match thread shades as closely as practical.
Border & shape
Round, square, shield, custom-cut or wonderfully irregular — the design helps determine the best finishing method.
Backing
Depending on the project, options can include sew-on, heat-applied, self-adhesive or hook-and-loop backing.
