Great product and service, as always!
I’ve used Custom Woven Labels on a few occasions now, and have been left overly satisfied each time. My first batch of woven labels came out clean, and the latest reorder involved a tweak, and looked beautiful! They provide excellent service, timely responses, and shipping time. I’ve also used Custom Woven Labels to sew the labels I ordered with them onto my shirts, and it came out great! I highly recommend Custom Woven Labels for your needs!
My labels are absolutely stunning! The gold thread is over the top in all the best ways! Customer service is excellent. I needed my labels for an event and they had them to me in plenty of time!
Custom Embroidered Patches for Hats
Our custom embroidered patches are one of the most popular ways to brand hats, caps, and beanies. Unlike direct embroidery — which requires specialized equipment and can distort thinner hat materials — an embroidered patch is produced separately and then sewn or ironed onto the hat. This gives you a clean, consistent look across your entire inventory.
Our hat patches are available with iron-on backing for quick application or sew-on attachment for maximum durability. The most popular sizes for hat patches are 2 to 3 inches, fitting comfortably on the front panel of structured caps. We produce patches with either a classic merrow border (the raised, stitched edge) or a clean laser-cut edge for a more modern look.
Whether you're creating branded merchandise, team caps, or promotional giveaways, custom embroidered hat patches deliver a professional, tactile finish that customers notice.
Embroidered Patches vs Woven Patches: Key Differences
Both embroidered and woven patches are fabric-based, but the production method creates a very different look and feel.
Embroidered patches are made by stitching colored thread onto a twill backing with an embroidery machine. The thread sits on top of the backing, creating a raised, three-dimensional texture you can feel. Embroidered patches have a classic, substantial look that's bold and eye-catching. Best for: larger designs, bold logos, and designs where texture matters.
Woven patches are produced on a loom, with the design woven into the fabric itself. This creates a thinner, smoother patch with much finer detail — small text, intricate lines, and subtle color gradients come out crisp and clear. Best for: detailed logos, small text, and designs where precision matters more than texture.
Quick comparison: • Detail level: Woven wins — can reproduce text as small as 1mm • Texture: Embroidered wins — raised, tactile surface • Thickness: Woven is thinner, sits flatter on garments • Cost: Similar at most quantities • Durability: Both excellent; woven slightly more resistant to snagging
Q: How much do custom embroidered patches cost?
Pricing depends on size, complexity, and quantity. Small patches (2-3 inches) start around $0.50-1.00 each in quantities of 100+. Volume discounts for larger orders. Request a free quote for exact pricing.
Q: What's the difference between embroidered and woven patches?
Embroidered patches have a raised, textured surface stitched onto a twill backing — classic and tactile. Woven patches are thinner and flatter, reproducing finer detail. Choose embroidered for bold designs, woven for intricate details.
Q: Can embroidered patches be ironed on?
Yes. We offer iron-on backing with heat-activated adhesive. For frequently laundered items, we recommend adding a few stitches around the border for permanent attachment, even with iron-on.
Q: What file format do I need for my patch design?
Vector files (AI, EPS, PDF) work best. If you only have JPG or PNG, our design team converts it to production-ready format at no extra charge. Free digital proofs before manufacturing.
