Patch types schools order most
- Chenille: fuzzy varsity letters and large mascots
- Embroidered: jackets, bags, and spirit merch
- Woven: detailed seals and small text
- Name tapes: player or staff identification
Letterman vs everyday merch
Use chenille when the jacket needs a thick varsity look that reads across a gym. Use embroidery or woven for caps, hoodies, and fundraising merch where a lower profile works better. Many programs quote both in one season.
Roster name tapes
Mixed names are fine when size and style match. Upload a list with exact spelling. Velcro helps when gear is shared; sew-on fits permanent kits. Guide: custom name tapes.
Timing around seasons and banquets
Build in proof review plus 5–7 delivery days. Put banquet or game dates in the quote notes. Production overview: custom patch production time.
