When and Why to use a Leather Patch

Patches have evolved beyond the iron on patches we grew up buying from the local craft store. Long gone are the days of patches with no detail and that don’t stick. More and more companies are looking for high end decoration options that are unique and durable yet cost effective. Leather patches are the solution to this decoration pursuit. Adding genuine leather to your decoration adds an air of expense, professionalism, and quality that standard patches and decoration don’t provide. The unique nature of a patch, especially leather, gives your item a personalized touch that turns an everyday garment into something special and memorable. 

Leather patches have no exterior stitching to create the emblem, therefore the risk disappears of fraying threads that over time diminish your branding. The durable nature of leather makes these patches perfect for items that might see some wear and tear like hats, bags, and jackets. Industries like construction and trades would benefit from the permanence of this patch type for branding and application longevity. Intricate or simple designs work well with this patch because the laser etching technique used for engraving can replicate your logo with extreme accuracy and detail with a minimum design detail of .3 mm. For perspective, the edge of a penny is approximately 1.5 mm thick! 

There are 3 different leather colors to choose from: Carmel, Taupe, and Natural. Each color option allows you to match the best leather option to your aesthetic and garment. If you want a look that is a bit weathered and worn in, there is a low contrast option for the leather engraving. Alternatively, if you want a bold punchy patch, you can choose the high contrast engraving option. The best part about using patches as a decoration method is you can order in bulk and store the patches for future orders. Leather patches can be stored for up to a year making this the perfect decoration option for repeatable art you find yourself ordering seasonally.
