Frequently asked questions
What’s the Process for Getting a Sample Patch Made?
While both silicone and PVC patches offer strength and pliability, each provides distinct characteristics: Silicone Patches: Light, pliable, and showcase a sleek, elevated surface. They excel at straightforward artwork and multi-piece connected logos. Silicone patches also apply seamlessly via heat-press compared to PVC. PVC Patches: Sturdier and denser, allowing them to capture complex details and fine-lined imagery. PVC patches need thermal bonding applied directly from behind.
How Many Colors Can I Use in My Design?
You can use up to 9 different thread colors in your custom embroidered patch design, allowing for vibrant colors and detailed artwork.
What Image Formats Do You Accept?
We accept most common image formats, including JPG, PNG, EPS, AI, and PSD . For the best results, please provide high-resolution, clear artwork with well-defined details. Vector files such as AI and EPS are preferred when available.
How Many Thread Colors Can I Choose From?
Choose from 700+ thread colors to bring your custom embroidered patch to life. We’ll carefully match the thread colors to your artwork for the closest possible result, or you can select your preferred colors from our available thread color chart.
