Q: How do I attach them?

You can pick a backing that suits you: sew-on, iron-on, Velcro, or peel-and-stick.

Q: How long will delivery take in the UK?

After approval, most orders arrive in about 5-10 working days. If you need them sooner, just ask about express production.

What Exactly Are Woven Patches?

If you’ve ever looked at a patch on a jacket or a club badge and thought, “How do they get all that detail in such a small space?” chances are, it was a woven patch.

Instead of stitching the design on top of fabric (like embroidery), woven patches are created by weaving fine threads directly together. This technique means every line, every curve, and even tiny lettering stays crisp and legible.

Why Woven Patches Instead of Embroidered Ones?

Embroidered patches have their charm, but woven patches win when it comes to detail. Here’s why more UK brands are switching:

Sharp Detail

Woven patches use thinner threads, so even small fonts and intricate logos look clean.

Smooth, Flat Finish

Perfect for fashion labels where bulky stitching would ruin the look.

Durability

They’re machine washable and keep their colour, wash after wash.

Premium Look

The finish is polished, making them ideal for clothing brands, uniforms, or corporate wear.

Think of embroidery as bold strokes with a paintbrush. Woven patches are like drawing with a fine pen, every detail matters.

Customisation Options – Make It Truly Yours

Every brand and project is different, so your woven patches should be too. We don’t just offer one-size-fits-all; instead, you get to choose the details that fit your vision.

Shapes & Sizes

Go classic with a circle or square, or get creative with custom die-cut patches shaped to your logo.

Edges

Choose a Merrow border (that neat stitched edge you see on classic patches) or a laser-cut edge for sharp outlines and unique designs.

Backings

Sew-on patches for permanent use
Iron-on patches with a heat-activated adhesive for quick application
Velcro patches for easy swap-outs (great for uniforms)
Peel-and-stick for temporary campaigns or events

Colour Accuracy

We can weave up to 12 colours into a design, including Pantone-matched shades so your brand identity is spot on.
