Custom Embroidered Patches and Badges

Custom Embroidered Badges

At MrBadges, our most popular product is our traditional custom embroidered patches. From the Parking Officer who just gave you a ticket to your kid’s footy team, embroidered badges are an integral part of uniforms and teamwear throughout Australia.

An embroidered badge is produced by a stitching process onto a base cloth, creating a textured and raised design effect. We recommend embroidery for designs that aren’t too intricate and text that isn’t too small. For more detailed designs, we suggest our woven or sublimated badges.

  • Best for: bold, simple logos or designs with clean shapes
  • Look & feel: textured, raised stitching with classic patch vibe
  • Limitations: fine lines and very small text can close up
  • Text size guide: minimum 4–5 mm high. Upper case is most reliable
  • Edges: merrowed (overlocked) or laser-cut satin stitch
  • Backings: sew-on, heat seal (iron-on), Velcro
  • Choose embroidery for bold, simple artwork
  • Choose woven for small text and fine detail
  • Choose sublimated for gradients, shading, or photo-style designs

We offer complimentary set-up for completed orders. We can set up new designs using most artwork file types (e.g., JPEG or PDF), and we often replicate based on photos of existing patches too. No Design? No Worries! Our dedicated designer Rick can help turn your ideas into reality.
