Patches

A premium badge, made your way

A patch turns a cap into a statement. Made separately and applied to the headwear, patches carry your brand with a crafted, premium finish, and with two tiers and nine finishes to choose from, there's a patch to match the look, budget and durability you're after.

Standard and premium patches

  • Standard patches: embroidered, chenille, woven, sublimated and leather engraved, the everyday premium finishes for team and retail headwear.
  • Premium patches: PVC, silicone, leather debossed and Metflex, elevated finishes for a distinctive, high-end look.
  • The right headwear: structured caps, trucker caps, flat peaks and beanies.
  • Clean, confident logos: patches suit solid shapes and defined lines, and our team advises the best finish for your artwork.

For a raised moulded finish printed straight onto the cap, see Rubber Print; for stitching directly on the garment, see Embroidery.

Executed correctly, every time

Once you order, our artwork team collects your logo through the Artwork Order Form, prepares your patch and confirms it on a proof before anything goes into production. We keep your setup on record and reproduce it identically on every reorder, so your branding stays consistent as your team grows.

Standard Patches

Standard patches cover the everyday premium finishes, made separately and applied to your headwear. Choose the finish that suits your brand, your budget and the look you're after, and our artwork team will recommend the best fit for your logo.

  • Embroidery patch: a classic stitched patch with a raised, textured finish
  • Chenille patch: a soft, tufted, varsity-style finish with real presence
  • Woven patch: a tighter weave that holds finer detail than embroidery
  • Sublimated patch: full-colour print for gradients and photographic detail
  • Leather engraved patch: a natural leather-look patch with an engraved logo

Premium Patches

Premium patches are the elevated tier, distinctive finishes for a high-end look that sets your headwear apart.

  • PVC patch: a durable, moulded rubber-look patch with bold, defined colour
  • Silicone patch: a soft, flexible raised patch with a clean, modern finish
  • Leather debossed patch: a genuine leather-look patch with a pressed, recessed logo
  • Metflex patch: a metallic finish for a premium, eye-catching look

Standard Placements

We've branded headwear for organisations right across Australia. To keep ordering simple, we offer a range of standard positions on the cap, front, left and right sides, and back, all detailed in our Artwork Placement Guide below. If you need something different, our team can help with custom placements and sizing.

Care Guides

Keep your branded headwear looking its best. Follow the care guidance for this decoration type to protect the finish and extend the life of every cap.

Your Questions, Answered

What's the difference between standard and premium patches?

Standard patches are the everyday premium finishes: embroidery, chenille, woven, sublimated and leather engraved. Premium patches are the elevated tier: PVC, silicone, leather debossed and Metflex, for a distinctive, high-end look. The two tiers are priced differently, and our team will help you choose.

Which patch type should I choose?

It depends on the look, the budget and how much detail your logo carries. As a guide, sublimated holds full-colour and photographic detail, chenille gives a bold varsity look, and PVC, silicone, leather and Metflex sit at the premium end. Send us your logo and our artwork team will recommend the best fit.

How are patches attached to the cap?

Patches are made separately and applied to your headwear as part of production. Our team will confirm the right patch and application for the cap you choose.

What's the minimum order?

Patches have a minimum of 10 caps with the same patch. Our team can talk you through the options if you need fewer.

Once my logo is set up, do you reuse it for future orders?

Yes. Once your patch is set up for patch, we keep it on record and reuse it for your future orders, so your branding stays identical every time you reorder ... and no Artwork Setup Fee applies for that configuration.

Can I approve how my logo will look before the full order is produced?

Yes. After you order, our artwork team collects your logo through your Artwork Instructions and sends you a hi-res proof (see Sample Artwork Proof) to approve, so you can confirm the placement, size and finish. We don't proceed until you're happy.

Can you decorate headwear I supply myself?

We don't decorate customer-supplied headwear. Everything we decorate comes from our own range, which keeps quality, sizing and colour consistent and means we stand behind the finished product end to end. Our team will help you find the right cap or beanie for your team.

Still haven't answered your question?

We're here to help. Our Customer Care team is available 8am to 8pm AEST Monday to Friday, and 8am to 3pm AEST Saturday, Australia-wide.
