Custom patches in Luxembourg
A patch is the easiest way to wear your logo, your club name or your team identity, on any garment or accessory.
Embroidered, woven, sublimated, PVC or 3D, iron-on, sew-on or velcro… We create your custom patches from your design: shape, size, colours and backing of your choice. Ideal for clubs, companies, associations and brands.
What are custom embroidered patches?
A patch (or embroidered badge) is a design made separately, on its own backing, then attached to the garment. It is created from your artwork, in the shape of your choice: round, shield, rectangle or cut to the outline of your logo.
Patches go on items that are hard to decorate directly, such as caps, bags or thick jackets, and can even move from one garment to another.
Patches for clubs, companies, associations and scouts
Embroidered patches finish club kits, uniforms, workwear and branded jackets. They are also popular with scouts, schools and associations, who give them to members or sell them as souvenirs.
Embroidered, woven, sublimated or PVC: which patch to choose?
Depending on your logo and how it will be used, we will recommend the most suitable type of patch:
| Type | Look | Ideal for |
|---|---|---|
| Embroidered patch | Raised threads, premium textured finish, very durable | Uniforms, jackets, caps, club kits |
| Woven patch | Flat, soft and light, finer detail than embroidery | Small text, detailed logos, labels |
| Sublimated patch | Full-colour print, gradients and photos | Complex, very colourful designs |
| PVC patch | Soft rubber, water and dirt resistant | Workwear, outdoor gear, bags, uniforms |
| 3D TPU patch | Modern raised effect, light and flexible | Brand logos, contemporary look |
| DTF patch | Printed transfer, unlimited colours, very precise | Very small runs, prototypes, one-offs |
New: 3D TPU patches give your logo real volume, for a striking effect on caps and jackets.
Iron-on, sew-on or velcro patches?
Every patch is available with the backing that suits your use:
| Backing | Application | Ideal for |
|---|---|---|
| Iron-on | With an iron or a heat press, no sewing | T-shirts, hoodies, bags: quick application |
| Sew-on | Stitched onto the garment, permanent | Jackets, uniforms, heavily used clothing |
| Velcro (hook and loop) | Removable, swapped in seconds | Uniforms, bags, equipment, tactical vests |
Good to know: we can also apply your patches directly to your garments in our workshop.
Patches for jackets, caps, bags and workwear
A patch goes on almost anything. These are the items our customers put them on most often:
Souvenir patches for your events
Local festival, tournament, walk or club anniversary: an embroidered patch with the theme and date of your event makes a lasting souvenir, to give to participants or to sell to fund your activities.
Embroidered letters and initial patches
Initials, a first name, a number or a whole word: we also make embroidered letters, iron-on or sew-on, varsity jacket style. A monogram on a jacket, a name on a bag, an initial on a cap… ideal for a one-off piece or a gift.
Club badges, crests and scout patches
Club crest, school badge, scout insignia or association emblem: the embroidered patch is the traditional way to show you belong to a group. We reproduce your crests and coats of arms in thread, with a clean, durable merrowed or embroidered border.
Patches for leather jackets and biker vests
A large back patch, a club name rocker, small chest patches: embroidered patches are made for leather jackets, vests and biker patches. Sewn on, they hold on thick leather and stand up to wind, rain and years on the road.
Skull, flower, flag patches and more
Skull, skeleton, rose, butterfly, flag, Christmas design… We embroider the design of your choice to customise a denim jacket, a bag or a cap. Send us your drawing: we turn it into a patch. Trademarked logos and characters can only be reproduced with their owner's permission.

Custom patch prices: what affects the cost
The price of a patch mainly depends on its type, its size and the quantity. These are the factors that count:
| Factor | Effect on price |
|---|---|
| Type of patch | Embroidered, woven, sublimated, PVC, 3D or DTF: each technique has its own price. |
| Size | The larger the patch, the more thread or material it takes. |
| Quantity | Set-up is spread over the run: the price per patch drops sharply with quantity. |
| Number of colours | Especially for embroidered patches, where each colour is a different thread. |
| Backing and application | Iron-on, sew-on or velcro, plus application to your garments if you wish. |
Tip: minimum quantities vary by patch type. For a single item or just a few, a DTF patch is often the best option.
Recommended patch sizes and positions
Here are the most common sizes. We adapt them to your logo and the chosen item.
| Position | Recommended size | Ideal for |
|---|---|---|
| Left chest | 6 to 9 cm | Company or club logo |
| Sleeve | 7 to 9 cm | Club badge, flag, insignia |
| Cap | 5 to 7 cm wide | Brand logo, initials |
| Back | 20 to 25 cm | Large crest, club name, biker jacket |
| Bag | 6 to 10 cm | Logo, souvenir, scout patch |
Embroidered patch or direct embroidery: which to choose?

Embroidered vs woven patches: what is the difference?
An embroidered patch is stitched in thread on a fabric base: it has relief and a textured finish, perfect for logos with clean shapes. A woven patch is formed thread by thread in the weave: it is flat, finer and more detailed, ideal for small text and complex logos.
Which file to send for a custom patch?
Ideally, a vector file (AI, EPS, SVG or vector PDF) with your colours. Otherwise, a high-resolution PNG, a photo of your old patch or even a simple sketch: we create the mock-up for you.
Everything about custom patches
What is a custom patch?
It is a patch created from your design (logo, crest, text), made separately and then attached to a garment or accessory. It can be embroidered, woven, sublimated, PVC, 3D or DTF.
What types of patches do you offer?
Six types: embroidered, woven, sublimated, PVC, 3D TPU and DTF. We will recommend the best one for your logo, use and quantity.
How do you attach a patch to clothing?
Patches can be iron-on (with an iron or heat press), sew-on (permanent) or velcro (removable). We can also apply them for you in our workshop.
Can I choose the shape and size of the patch?
Yes, every patch is made to measure: round, shield, rectangle or cut to the outline of your logo, in the size of your choice.
How much do custom patches cost?
The price depends on the type of patch, the size, the number of colours, the backing and above all the quantity. Ask us for a quote: it is tailored to your project.
Do you make iron-on embroidered letters?
Yes, we make embroidered letters and initials, iron-on or sew-on, to personalise a jacket, a bag or a cap.
Embroidered vs woven patches: which is better?
Embroidered patches have relief and a textured finish. Woven patches are flat and finer, ideal for small details and text. We will advise you depending on your logo.
Are iron-on patches washable?
Yes. Wash the garment inside out at 30 or 40 °C. For heavily used or frequently washed clothing, a sew-on patch remains the strongest option.
How long do custom patches take?
Lead time depends on the type of patch and the quantity. Please mention your preferred date in your quote request: we will confirm the lead time with the mock-up.
