Woven and Print Stitch Patches: Specialty Options for Exceptional Detail
We offer a couple of specialty patch options at Stitch Ranch that can really elevate your branding: Woven Patches and Print Stitch Patches.
Woven Patches: Intricate and Timeless
Woven patches use an interlaced weaving process. They're great for intricate detail—fine lines, small text, designs that need precision. The finish is smooth and refined. It's a classic look that's been around for a long time for good reason.
When you need to capture fine detail that traditional embroidery might struggle with, woven patches are the answer. The weaving process allows for crisp text and clean lines that stay sharp and legible even at smaller sizes.
The traditional woven thread look has a heritage quality to it. It feels established, trustworthy, and professional
Print Stitch Patches: The Best of Both Worlds
Then there are Print Stitch Patches, and these are pretty impressive. They combine embroidery and sublimation in one patch. You get full color and photo-realistic detail from the sublimation, plus the texture and dimension from the stitching. It's the best of both techniques in one piece.
This hybrid approach opens up possibilities that neither method could achieve alone. Want photographic elements with the tactile quality of embroidery? Print Stitch makes it happen. Need gradients and multiple colors but still want that dimensional, stitched feel? That's exactly what this method delivers.
When to Choose Specialty Patches
These work really well when you need more than a standard embroidered look—detailed logos, gradients, even photographic elements.
If your branding is complex, if you're working with imagery that has subtlety and nuance, or if you simply want something that stands out as premium and unique, these specialty patches are worth considering.
