Fall sports season brings a predictable wave of patch and team-gear orders — booster clubs, school athletics, rec leagues all placing similar requests around the same few weeks. Knowing the difference between patch types ahead of time saves a round of back-and-forth on every order.
Woven vs. Embroidered, and When Each Makes Sense
A Woven Patch handles fine detail and small text better than embroidery can, while an Embroidered Emblem gives a more traditional, textured look that reads well on a jacket or a bag. Neither is strictly better — it depends on the design.
If your fall order also includes athletic gear itself, our summer athletic giveaways piece covers some of the same product categories from a different season's angle.
Order Ahead of the Season, Not During It
Patch production has its own lead time separate from the rest of a promotional order — worth starting before the season actually kicks off, not once the first game is already on the calendar.
