The classic patch. Embroidered patches are traditional patches with lots of texture but hard to capture the small details.
Printed patches are best used when your design has many colors, fine details, or shading that needs to be recreated.
Leather patches are embossed to capture your design on timeless leather.
PVC/rubber patches are made with layers of colored rubber to give your design a crisp 3D look.
