Chenille’s plush loop gives jackets the heritage look students expect.
Award storytelling
Add sport icons, years, and captain bars around the core letter.
Color-matched sets
Letters, numbers, and mascots quoted together for a unified jacket kit.
Alumni reorders
Keep proofs on file for graduating classes and reunion runs.
Fabrication options
Base
Felt or twill bases under chenille yarn for structure and color blocking.
Backing
Sew-on is strongly recommended for heavy letterman jackets.
Size
Single letters often 3–5"; multi-letter scripts and mascots sized to the chest panel.
Detail
Combine chenille fills with embroidered outlines for sharp mascot edges.
Backing and Border Options
Backing Option
Sew on
The classic choice for durable, permanent attachment to your favorite garments.
Iron on
Secure, long-lasting adhesion for easy application on a variety of fabrics.
Peel and Stick
The perfect temporary solution—affordable and convenient placement.
Velcro Backing
Includes both hook and loop sides, offering maximum flexibility.
Border Option
Merrowed border
Classic overlock edge that wraps the patch perimeter for a clean, finished look.
Heat-cut border
Clean sealed edge that follows intricate shapes without a thick merrow.
Laser-cut border
Precise shaped edges for complex artwork and thin lettering.
Raw / unfinished
No border wrap—ideal when the design itself forms the edge.
Frequently asked questions
Can you make a full name in chenille script?
Yes—script and block styles are available. Longer names may need a wider size for clarity.
Do you offer felt color options under the chenille?
We do. Pick base and yarn colors on the proof so contrast stays strong on the jacket.
Is iron-on OK for letterman jackets?
Sew-on is preferred for weight and longevity. Iron-on can supplement lighter garments only.
Can seniors reorder the same letter next year?
Keep the approved proof with us and reorder matching letters anytime.
