What information should I provide for a quote?

- Border style
- Delivery country
- Any special craft requirements

Do you have a minimum order quantity?
Minimum order quantity may depend on the patch type, size, and production process. Small orders and bulk orders are both welcome. Please contact us with your design details, and we will recommend the most suitable option.
Can I reorder the same patch later?
Yes. If you have ordered from us before, we can usually reproduce the same design based on your previous order details. Please provide your previous order information or artwork file for faster processing.
What file format should I send?
You can send AI, PDF, SVG, EPS, PNG, JPG, or JPEG files. Vector files are preferred because they help keep the design clean and accurate. If you only have a regular image, our team can review it and advise whether it is suitable for production.
Can you help if I do not have a finished design?
Yes. You can send us your logo, sketch, reference image, or design idea. Our team can help review the artwork and prepare it for custom patch production.
Will I receive a proof before production?
Yes. We can provide a digital proof before production so you can check the size, colors, layout, border, backing, and other details. Production will begin after the design is confirmed.
Can I change the design after receiving the proof?
Yes, you can request changes before production starts. Once production has already started, changes may not be possible or may require extra cost, depending on the production stage.
Will the final patch look exactly like my artwork?
We will match your artwork as closely as possible. However, because patches are made with thread, fabric, PVC, printing, or other physical materials, slight differences in color, texture, line thickness, and detail may occur. For the best result, we recommend using clear artwork and confirming all details before production.

Which patch type is best for my design?
It depends on your artwork and use:
Embroidered patches are great for classic textured logos.
Woven patches are better for small text and fine details.
Printed patches are suitable for gradients, photos, and colorful artwork.
PVC patches are durable, waterproof, and flexible.
Chenille patches are ideal for varsity, fashion, and bold letter designs.
3D embroidered patches create a raised, dimensional effect.
What backing options are available?
Common backing options include sew-on backing, iron-on backing, adhesive backing, hook and loop backing, and other custom options depending on the patch type.
What border options can I choose?
Common border options include merrowed border, laser-cut border, heat-cut border, and stitched border. The best option depends on the patch shape and design style.

Yes. We can make round, square, rectangle, shield, oval, letter-shaped, logo-shaped, and fully custom-shaped patches.
Can you match Pantone colors?
We can match thread, fabric, PVC, or printed colors as closely as possible based on your artwork or Pantone color references. Please note that different materials may show slight color differences.
How long does production take?
Production time depends on patch type, size, quantity, design complexity, and order schedule. Simple designs usually take less time, while complex or bulk orders may require longer production.
Can you make rush orders?

Why is the price different for each custom patch order?
Custom patch pricing depends on many factors, including size, quantity, patch type, backing, border, colors, design complexity, and special craft requirements. We recommend sending your full order details so we can provide an accurate quote.
Do you offer bulk order pricing?
