Premium custom patches manufactured in the USA
Turn simple artwork, lettering, team numbers, and logos into eye-catching custom applique patches made for apparel that needs to stand out. Applique combines carefully cut fabric layers with clean stitching to create a bold, dimensional appearance without covering the entire design in embroidery.At Custom Patch Makers USA, we create applique patches in custom shapes, sizes, fabrics, and colors for varsity jackets, sports jerseys, uniforms, streetwear, clubs, businesses, and clothing brands. Whether you need a large back design or smaller branded patches, we can manufacture your design according to your artwork and application.












Varsity Heritage & Precision
Large designs require more than simply increasing the size of a standard embroidered patch. Applique allows us to use fabric as a major part of the artwork, helping larger letters, numbers, mascots, and logos remain clean and visually balanced.Our patches can combine durable fabric, precise cutting, detailed stitching, embroidered accents, and professionally finished borders. The result is a custom patch designed to look sharp on jackets, jerseys, uniforms, hoodies, bags, and other apparel.
From a single-color varsity letter to a multi-layered brand design, each order is produced around your artwork rather than forcing your design into a standard template.
