Custom Patches for Clothing Brands and Apparel Collections
A branded patch connects your artwork with the material and construction of the garment. The right specification considers the logo, surface finish, placement and attachment together.
A patch worth wearing.
Custom Patches produces embroidered, woven, printed, PVC, chenille and leather patches from your own designs. Orders start at 10 pieces per design, with free digitising, a free digital proof and no separate setup fee.

Choose a finish that supports the garment
The patch should look intentional beside the fabric and other trims. A prominent stitched logo, a textured chenille letter and a marked leather surface each create a different effect.
Start with the physical appearance you want. Then check whether the construction reproduces the smallest important artwork detail. Compare patch types before deciding that the same treatment should be used across an entire collection.
Prepare a production specification
| Detail | What to include |
|---|---|
| Artwork | Current logo or design file and any fixed brand rules |
| Dimensions | Width, height, outline and orientation |
| Colours | Pantone/PMS references where applicable and any critical matching requirement |
| Garment | Material, intended location and care process |
| Attachment | Preferred backing and how the patch will be applied |
| Quantity | Pieces per design and any size or colour variations |
| Timing | Required arrival date and delivery location |
If the patches are part of a garment production process, give the applicator the complete patch specification. Do not assume that the same heat or sewing process suits every material in the collection.
Check the patch at the actual placement
Use a paper template to assess dimensions on the garment before approving the layout. Pay attention to seams, folds and curved areas such as cap fronts.
A digital proof helps confirm the design but does not show every physical quality of a patch on the finished garment. If a material or application decision needs a manufactured sample, ask about available arrangements before approving the main run.
Review brand detail and colour
Small text and closely spaced marks require assessment at final size. Pantone/PMS matching can be offered for suitable production methods, but the physical surface still affects how the colour appears.
Identify critical colours and explain whether the patch must match a particular fabric or earlier batch. See colour matching and lettering guidance for the information that makes this review useful.
Move from proof to production
We review your artwork and requirements, quote the specification and create a free digital proof. You can request changes before approval. Production starts only after approval, and the finished order is inspected before packing and dispatch.
For a repeat order, keep the approved artwork and reference. Tell us about any change to the garment, backing, dimensions or colour requirement. A new garment can create a new compatibility question even when the logo stays the same.
Plan delivery around the launch
Approximate total turnaround is 10–14 days including production and delivery. We deliver throughout the Netherlands and the EU with tracking sent by email. Include the date the patches are needed by your garment-production team, not only the public launch date.
