Hook-and-loop patches
Custom Hook-and-Loop Patches You Can Swap Anytime
With hook-and-loop backing, one jacket or bag can carry different patches for different roles, events or seasons. Personnel can remove patches before laundering, and departments can reassign uniforms without re-sewing.
We sew the hook side onto the back of your patch. If the garment or gear does not already have a loop panel, we can also supply a matching loop piece that you sew onto the garment — just ask for "hook and loop pairs" on your quote.
Hook-and-loop backing is available on embroidered, woven, PVC and leather patches. PVC patches with hook backing are especially popular because both parts stand up to rain and mud.
Tips for long life
Close loop panels and patches face to face before washing to stop the hook from collecting lint. Keep a spare loop strip to protect the hook when the patch is stored.
