Custom Leather Patches With No Minimum Order

Yes! We offer multicolor leather patches in addition to traditional brown shades. You can also choose from dark-toned leather options if you prefer a darker backdrop for your design.

Yes. We do deboss with screen printing, as well as embroidered (colored) details on a leather background. Please note that there will be a slight difference in vibrancy.

Leather patches are popular options for jackets and pants (both leather and denim). You can also use leather patches on hats, caps, bags, keychains, and other accessories.

Faux leather patches wash well on a cold, gentle cycle with the garment inside out. Real leather prefers spot cleaning with a damp cloth, since prolonged soaking stiffens hide over time. Either way, avoid hot water and skip the tumble dryer. Heat is what damages a leather patch, not water.

Real leather is animal hide. It has natural grain that varies piece to piece; it develops a patina as it ages, and it has a weight you notice in the hand. Faux leather is a synthetic material, usually PU, that is identical across every patch and every reorder, reaches colors real hide cannot take, and contains no animal products. We make both. Real leather suits products people keep; faux suits large uniform runs and vegan brands.

Laser engraving burns away the top layer of the leather, leaving a darker recessed mark with a toasted edge. It holds the finest detail and needs no tooling, which makes it the most economical option. Debossing presses your design down into the leather with a heated die, compressing the fibers for a clean recess with little or no color change. Embossing uses the same tooling to push the design up instead of down. Debossing and embossing both need a die made for your artwork, and both suit bold shapes better than fine detail.

Yes, that is exactly what our iron-on backing is for. On faux leather a household iron works well on flat garments like denim and cotton. Cover the patch with a thin cloth, turn the steam off, and press firmly without sliding the iron. Real leather needs a lower setting and a cloth every time, since hide scorches if the heat runs high. Caps are the exception on both materials, because a curved panel cannot take even pressure from a flat iron, so we recommend sew-on backing for hat patches.

There is no minimum. We make single sample patches and runs of several thousand, with no setup or artwork fees at any quantity. Per-patch pricing does drop as quantity rises, so if you are close to the next tier, it is worth asking for both quotes side by side.

It depends on the number of patches or the complexity of your order (for instance, leather patches with screen printing and stitched borders may require a longer process). Typically, we deliver leather patches within one to two weeks of order confirmation (holidays and other barriers in shipping may extend delivery time).

For now, we only offer services for creating custom patches, not attaching them to clothing or other surfaces. We recommend you go to a professional to get these stitched.

Yes. Our faux leather is PU-based and contains no animal products. If your brand carries a vegan certification or a supplier requirement, tell us when you order, and we will confirm the material specification in writing.

Between 2.5 and 3.5 inches wide for most trucker and five-panel caps. A standard front panel gives you roughly 4 inches of usable width before the patch runs into the seams, and the panel curve means anything wider tends to lift at the corners. Rectangles and rounded rectangles sit flattest against the curve.

Yes, through screen printing, which is the only method that puts actual ink on the material. It is often combined with debossing, so the design is pressed in first, and the ink sits inside the recess where it is protected from wear. Laser engraving and debossing on their own give you a tonal mark in the leather rather than a printed color.
