🧵 Application Tips

·        Sew-on patches are best for durability

·        Iron-on patches are great for fast, easy placement

·        Many bikers prefer a combo of both for strong adhesion

·        Always place patches carefully and respectfully, especially club colors, to avoid misunderstandings

How to Iron-On Your Biker Patch?

Set your iron to the “Cotton” or high heat setting (around 350°F or 180°C).
Turn off steam. Iron-on patches adhere with dry heat only. Lay your item on a flat, heat-resistant surface. Make sure it’s clean and wrinkle-free.  Decide where you want to place the patch. Measure and center it if needed. Place the patch with adhesive side down (shiny side) on your garment. Cover it with a pressing cloth or parchment paper to protect the threadwork. Press the hot iron firmly on the patch for 20–30 seconds. Apply even pressure and don’t move the iron around. Let it cool for a few seconds, then repeat from the inside of the garment for stronger bonding (if the material allows). Allow the patch to cool completely (about 5–10 minutes). Check the edges. If they lift, reapply heat for another 10 seconds.

How to Sew-On Your Biker Patch?

To sew an embroidery patch onto your garment, start by cleaning and pressing the fabric, then position the patch where you'd like it. Use a matching thread and a needle, tying a knot at the end. Sew around the edge of the patch with small, tight stitches using a running stitch or whip stitch, ensuring it’s securely attached. Tie a knot on the inside of the garment to finish. For extra durability, reinforce the corners with additional stitches. Finally, press the patch gently with an iron to set the stitches and ensure it lays flat. Sewing your patch ensures long-lasting attachment, especially for high-wear items like jackets and vests.

🧼 Care Guide

To keep your embroidery patches looking sharp:

• If ironed on, wash inside out in cold water
• Avoid high heat in the dryer (air dry is best)
• For sewn patches, gentle machine wash is safe
• Don’t bleach or wring—this helps preserve thread colors and detail

Our patches are made to last—even on the road.
