Custom Military Patches

Getting the Design Just Right For Military Uniform Patches

To ensure that all of the military uniform patches we create meet the standards of the United States Institute of Heraldry, we make sure to use high quality-thread with colors taken from the Pantone Matching System. Soldiers wear full-color patches while stateside, but when they’re deployed overseas, the full-color patches are swapped out for patches with a more subtle design.

While the artwork is the same, the change in color scheme helps the patches blend in with a soldier’s uniform. Another reason to change up the color of a unit or command patch is for creating special Friday patches. Soldiers are sometimes given a special version of their unit or command patch as a reward for superior service and permitted to wear it on the occasional Friday.

Custom patches Military with detailed artwork have a traditional look and feel, perfect for anyone wanting a design with classic appeal. We only use the best quality threads available when crafting Military and woven patch designs, so no matter which style you prefer, you can be sure the artwork will not fade or fray over time.

The last type of official military uniform patch that we help design are name tapes. While we don’t sell them embroidered with individual names, we’ve designed blank military name tapes with command emblems embroidered in one corner. Once members of the command receive their blank name tape, they can take them to get embroidered on their own.

Even though the Air Force and Army share the same operational camouflage pattern (OCP) uniform, there are a few subtle differences in how their hook and loop patches are made. Air Force patches use spice brown colored thread for the text, while Army patches use black thread. When it comes to Navy patches, the color of their working uniform patches will depend on which of the three camouflage uniforms sailors will be wearing their Navy patches on.

Whether you need Air Force patches, Army patches or any kind of other military patch, you can rest assured that our Signature Patches team has got you covered.

Custom Morale Patches

Besides official military uniform patches, our Signature Patches team also makes quite a few custom morale patches for different units all over the world. Morale patches are all about improving the morale of a group of soldiers, and they’re often awarded to units deployed overseas, or designed by a specific unit as a way to commemorate their time serving together.

Since military morale patches aren’t limited by the same design constraints of unit patches or military rank patches, the artwork is always unique to a specific team. Soldiers like to include their own sense of humor in the designs and have more freedom to choose patch styles other than the traditional embroidered patches used throughout the armed forces. PVC military patches are a popular choice when crafting a morale patch, but we can create woven patch designs or even custom leather patches.
