Custom Biker Patches
When the conversation turns to patches, most people think of a woven patch or a classic embroidered design. There are all kinds of ways to make beautiful artwork for a set of classic patches, but these days a lot of our customers are turning to a more modern alternative: PVC patches. The polyvinyl chloride material we use to create soft PVC patches is similar in look and feel to a rubber patch, resulting in the most flexible and durable designs you can find, while also allowing our customers to capture incredible amounts of fine detail in their custom artwork.

Can PVC Patches Be Heat Pressed Or Ironed On?
The quick answer is yes! PVC Patches can be applied to hats and backpacks with a heat press at medium pressure and medium heat. But we recommend creating a sewing channel and sewing them on. We are experts at applying this style of patch to hats. Adding a velcro backing to a PVC patch is another way to add it to apparel and can be easily removed.

Heat Pressing Silicone Patches
Silicone is more stretchable, so it makes a better choice for garments needing to be flexible. Silicone has a higher resistance to heat and a softer feel, especially if added to a shirt where it will be in contact with your skin. It can handle heat press temperatures of up to 200 degrees Celsius vs. 45 degrees with PVC. Both options are waterproof, but PVC will be less expensive and possibly a better choice for headwear.

ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS
Questions You Want To Know
What are custom patches?
That means you choose the style. You choose the design. And you choose exactly how you want the patch to look so that it represents your sense of style. Ultimately, you get something that you don’t get when buying patches from a store – control.
What can I use custom patches for?
Many people order custom patches simply because they want to add to their clothing and create their own sense of style. For them, custom patches are simple – they’re style accessories.
Others may be business owners. For them, custom patches are branding tools that they can give out (or even sell) as promotional items when they have a new product or want to get more eyes on their logo.
What is the typical time for custom patches?
When we complete production, we ship the patches via your chosen shipping method, with our guarantee that we use the fastest shipping available from the different couriers we utilize. Typically, customers receive their custom patches in about 10 business days after approving their proof.
Can I choose different options for my patches?
If sewing (the standard attachment method) isn’t you’re thing, we can create custom iron-on patches that simply require a little bit of heat to “stick” them to your fabric. With these patches, you use heat transfer to embed the patch into your clothing. After a short cooling period, you get a patch that lasts for a long time – no sewing required.
We also offer Velcro, safety pins, key chain, and tape attachments.
How are custom patches made?
For example, custom embroidered patches tell you exactly how we make the patch – you send the design and we embroider it onto your chosen material. Woven patches also give you a clue in the name (we weave the design into your patch), whereas printed custom patches see us print your design directly onto the fabric to create an ultra-high-fidelity look.
Can I design my own custom patch?
All we need from you are a few details (type of patch, material, number of custom patches needed, and a design) and we do the rest. The artwork you send is where the “design your own custom patches” aspect comes in. As long as the image isn’t copyrighted by somebody else, we can create patches using any design you send us. The only limit is your imagination.
Can I order a small quantity of custom patches?
We want to make accessing our patches as easy as possible, so we offer lower quantities for people who just want to have a few patches to hand or those who want to sample our work before committing to an order.
Note – our maximum order quantity online is 100,000 but you can order more if you chat with one of our reps through our “Live Chat” service.
How do I care for garments with attached patches?
If you do have to machine-wash (such as when washing in bulk), turn the garments inside out to minimize the effects your washing machine has on your custom-made patches.
