Built around the way
you’ll use it.
Name patches need consistent dimensions and exact text. Share the complete name list and clarify capitalization, font preference, background color and how the patches will attach to the garment.
01
Exact name list
Check spelling and capitalization for every individual name.
02
Consistent layout
Set a common patch size and define how longer names should be handled.
03
Wear & attachment
Describe the garment and preferred application method.
BEFORE YOU START
A clearer brief.
A better starting point.

KNOW YOUR OPTIONS
Small choices.
A different finished result.
These decisions help define the project before the artwork or production plan is approved.
Name Patches: decisions to confirm
| Decision | What to specify | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Same box or same letter size | Decide whether long names shrink or use a wider patch. | These are different layout systems and should be agreed before production. |
| Name list control | Provide one final list with exact spelling and capitalization. | Late name changes can affect individual artwork and order quantities. |
| Contrast | Choose text and background colors for clear recognition. | Low contrast can reduce readability even when the font is suitable. |

ABOUT THIS SERVICE
Name Patches
questions, answered.
More questions about your design? Include the specific application and your artwork when you prepare your brief.
How should longer names be handled?
Agree whether the patch width changes, the lettering becomes smaller or a different layout is used. Check the longest examples before approving the full set.
Can different names share one patch design?
They can share a layout, but every name should be checked for spelling, spacing and the agreed dimensions.
What should I approve before physical production?
Confirm artwork, actual size, material, colors, edge finish, backing, quantity and any sample or proof requirements. Timing and delivery should be agreed separately.
How is the project price confirmed?
Price depends on the approved artwork and physical specifications, including size, construction, quantity and delivery needs. Request a project-specific total before authorizing work.
