Custom Iron On Patches

Quickly and efficiently add patches to anything with custom iron-on patches. When sewing is difficult and oftentimes requires contracting a skilled seamstress, custom iron-on patches can be easily attached with a household iron. Custom iron-on patches include glue, which is activated when heated up, creating a long-lasting hold. Custom iron-on patches are perfect for hats, backpacks, and sports uniforms. For over 30 years, The Patch and Promos has been the trusted source for high-quality iron-on patches.

Four Easy Steps To Applying Your Patches


At the Patch and Promos, we are the authority on how to apply iron on patches. Custom iron-on patches can be a fun way to add personal expression to your clothing. Just follow this simple step-by-step guide

  • Step 1: Heat Your Patch — Gently heat the front of your patch with your iron to activate the glue on the backside. Then, preheat the surface of the item you are attaching the patch to.
  • Step 2: Stick It On — Place your patch on the hat, jacket, or even a tote bag. Pro-tip: Use thermal heat tape to hold the patch in place perfectly.
  • Step 3: Press and Cover — Place a thin cloth like an old t-shirt or a bandana over the patch to protect it. Then, gently press it with the heated-up home iron. Depending on the patch style, it takes 15 to 45 seconds to bond.
  • Step 4: Flip & Repeat — Flip your gear inside out and do the same thing on the other side. This helps the glue truly bond. Make sure to let the garment cool before wearing it. And that's all there is to it!

FAQs

Everything you need to know about ordering custom leather patches.

Q Can you iron-on leather patches?

Yes, we can add heat apply leather patches. We suggest using low heat and a heat press that allows front and back heat. We offer more information about iron-on patches and how to heat press leather patches on hats.

Q What is the minimum order quantity and production time?

The minimum quantity to order is 50 custom leather patches. We also offer outstanding quantity discount tiers. Production time is generally 10 to 18 business days, depending on our current production schedule. Be sure to sign up for our email list and look out for first-order and free-shipping promotions (United States only).

Q Do you offer samples?

Yes, we offer physical samples of your design, or we can send you a sample package of similar patches we have created for other customers. All we need is your shipping address. There is no charge. We also offer a free sample photo option.

Q Can I get a sample before starting production of my order?

Yes. Ask your sales representative about our free sample photo option. We always provide digital proofs before your order goes into production as well.

Q How do you clean leather patches?

Apply a gentle mixture of warm water and white vinegar to a damp microfiber cloth for cleaning leather patches. Avoid soaking the leather during cleaning. Instead, dry it using a clean towel and maintain it with leather conditioner afterward. For more information, read our in-depth article titled Leather Cleaning 101.

Q How do you attach a leather patch?

We suggest sewing your custom leather patches to garments, especially when applying them to custom hats. You can also heat-apply patches. We provide additional guidance on when to sew and when to iron-on patches.

Q What is the difference between debossed and embossed leather?

Debossing and embossing give a deeper impression to the leather, as opposed to engraving leather. Both techniques create a dimensional impression in the leather.

Q How do I submit my design for a custom leather patch?

Upload your design or custom logo into the request form. You will receive a digital proof to approve within one business day. Our sales team can answer questions and provide guidance throughout the custom leather patch process.

Q Can you add color leather patches?

Yes! Leather patches can be color-filled onto the debossed areas, or we can print a design directly onto the leather.
