Screen printed embroidered patches combine the vibrant, full-color capabilities of screen printing with the classic texture and durability of embroidery. This unique hybrid approach lets you achieve bold color fills and intricate details, making your designs pop while adding a raised, tactile texture to bring them to life.
These patches are perfect for businesses, organizations, and teams looking to elevate their branding on apparel and accessories. Whether you're creating patches for uniforms, bags, or promotional items, screen printed embroidered patches are versatile, eye-catching, and built to last.
In addition to screen printed embroidered patches, we also offer PVC patches, Chenille patches, and Leather patches for those seeking even more customization and unique materials for their designs.
Best Applications for Custom Patches

The luxurious feel and bold appearance make them a favorite for high-end custom apparel and team uniforms.
- Applications: Ideal for varsity jackets, high school or college apparel, and fashion-forward designs.

Application Instructions (Sew-On Only)
Our screen printed embroidered patches, PVC patches, Chenille patches, and Leather patches are designed for sew-on application, ensuring a secure and long-lasting attachment to your garments and accessories. Here's how to apply them:
- Position the Patch: Place the patch in your desired location on the fabric, securing it with pins or fabric tape.
- Sew Around the Edges: Use a needle and thread or a sewing machine to stitch around the edge of the patch. Match the thread color to the design or edge for a seamless look.
- Optional Reinforcement: For extra durability, add additional stitches along inner borders or design elements, especially for items like bags or jackets that experience higher wear.
Since these patches are sew-on only, they’re perfect for materials that don’t hold adhesives well, such as thick or textured fabrics.
Care Tips for Your Custom Patches
To maintain the vibrancy and durability of your patches, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Washing: Turn garments inside out and wash on a gentle cycle in cold water. Avoid bleach or harsh detergents to preserve the colors and stitching.
- Drying: Air drying is the best method to preserve both color and stitching. If using a dryer, opt for a low-heat setting.
- Ironing: Avoid direct contact with the patch while ironing. If necessary, place a cloth over the patch to protect it.
With proper care, your patches will stay vibrant and securely attached, ensuring a long lifespan even with regular use.
