What are dyed patches?

• Fabric patch with satin-stitched edge, customized with your logo or personalized
• Image is permanently DYED into patch, not embroidered or stitched
• Made with the same permanent dye process as colorful polyester clothing
• Machine washable and dryable, scrubbable, dry cleanable
• "Feminine", "masculine", or block font available for names, or use a custom font - see font samples
• Fabric glues available for the sewing-challenged - choose washable/dryable or washable/dryable/drycleanable
• Iron-on backing available

Are they durable?

The design is molecularly bonded with the fabric, so they are extremely durable. Customer tests report you can do anything to the patches - scrub them, launder them, expose them to salt water, wear them in the rain - they do fail the broil test, however.

If you can go out in the rain wearing polyester, you can do the same with our patches. The image will not run or bleed because it is permanently dyed into the fabric. The image will not scratch off as in screen printing or get snagged as in embroidery because it is molecularly bonded, subsurface.

Why would I want these rather than embroidered patches?

• Can order smaller quantities, as low as one patch
• Unlimited colors and gradients available
• Extremely fine detail
• Edges and background can match exactly
• No threads to fray
• Clean-looking text without thread between the words

We Do Not Make Embroidered Patches

Below are photos of embroidered patches we were asked to reproduce, with the embroidered on the left and our dye sublimation versions on the right. We sometimes add drop shadows to text to simulate three-dimensionality. Note that the lettering is actually more readable and the map is more accurate and detailed in our dyed version.

♦ We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, and PayPal, or you can indicate if you will be mailing a check or money order.

♦ Mail or email your photos or artwork to the address below. All photos mailed to us are returned unharmed. Click here for details on files we can accept.

♦ Some companies pride themselves on how rough a sketch they can turn into a beautiful patch. Although we are quite skilled with our software, we expect art to be in usable form because we do not charge a setup or art fee or require a minimum order.  We will gladly do minor touch-ups, enhancements, and text resets, but we do not create art from scratch or from rough pencil sketches.

♦ We will email back a proof before making your patches. Most products take 2-4 days to make. If you have a deadline, please fill in the must-receive-by date on the shopping cart so we can keep your needs visible as we work.

♦ We ship anywhere in the world.

♦ If you have additional questions, you are welcome to call or write before placing your order.

Please do not submit crude or off-color designs or text, or images for which you do not hold the copyright. We will not make products we consider lewd, vulgar, or just generally inappropriate and we will refund your money
