Custom embroidered patch examples

Custom embroidered patches are used by teams, clubs, companies, schools and organizations to carry a badge, crest or logo on uniforms, jackets and bags. This gallery shows four patch projects: a command badge, a San Diego city identity patch, a corporate patch and an organization crest with Greek letters.

A good patch starts with artwork that works at a small size. Borders need to be even, text has to stay readable, and fine details should be simplified or enlarged so they do not disappear in thread. These examples show clean borders and detail on badge and crest designs, where small elements still need to stay legible.

Patches can be made for command-style badges, sports teams, fraternities and sororities, businesses and events. See our custom patch service, browse embroidery digitizing examples, or send your design to start your patch project.

To start a patch project, send a vector file or a high-resolution version of your logo, along with the final size and the number of thread colors you want. If you only have a low-resolution image, our vector art service can rebuild it first so the patch artwork starts clean. Tell us if the design needs a border, small text or fine detail, and we will advise how to keep it readable at patch size.
