Our varsity jacket patches and chenille letters are made to last. Built with sturdy backing options and high-quality yarns, they maintain their softness and vibrant colors even after repeated washing and wear. Whether you choose iron-on or sew-on backing, your custom chenille patches will stay firmly attached and looking fresh for years. Durable, stylish, and made with care—these patches are designed for those who wear their identity proudly.
Selecting the right backing is key to getting the best results from your custom chenille patches. We offer two premium options — iron-on and sew-on — designed to suit different uses and fabrics.
- Iron-on chenille patches are perfect for quick and easy application. With a strong heat-activated adhesive, they bond securely to most materials, making them ideal for jackets, sweatshirts, and school uniforms. They provide a clean, professional look without the need for stitching.
- Sew-on chenille patches, on the other hand, are best for long-term durability and heavy-duty fabrics like varsity jackets and denim. Stitching ensures your patch stays firmly in place, even after repeated washing or outdoor use.
Whether you’re customizing varsity jacket patches, letterman patches, or number patches, both backing types deliver strength, flexibility, and premium finish—so you can choose what fits your project best.
Yes — chenille patches and varsity patches refer to the same style of patch. The term “varsity patch” comes from their traditional use on varsity jackets and letterman jackets, while “chenille” describes the soft, fuzzy yarn texture used to create them.
Both styles are made with looped chenille threads that give a three-dimensional look and plush feel. Whether you call them chenille letters, number patches, or varsity jacket patches, they’re all part of the same classic design used to showcase school spirit, team pride, or personalized branding.
Sewing chenille patches is simple, but it requires care since these patches are thicker than regular embroidery. Here’s how to do it right:
- Place your chenille patch where you want it on the fabric — usually on jackets, hoodies, or bags. Use pins or a small amount of fabric glue to hold it in position.
- Use a sturdy needle, such as one designed for denim or upholstery, since varsity patches are made from thick looped yarn.
- Match your thread to the patch border color for a clean, professional look.
- Stitch carefully along the edge using a straight or zigzag stitch. Go slowly to avoid uneven edges.
- Backstitch at the start and end to secure the patch.
Sew-on chenille patches are preferred for varsity jackets, letterman jackets, and team uniforms because they last longer and can handle frequent washing.
Iron-on chenille patches are an easy, no-stitch option for quick customization. Follow these steps for best results:
- Set your iron to medium-high heat — make sure steam is turned off.
- Place your patch where you want it and cover it with a thin cloth or parchment paper to protect the fabric.
- Press the hot iron firmly over the patch for 20–30 seconds. Apply even pressure, especially along the edges.
- Allow the fabric to cool completely so the adhesive can bond properly.
Iron-on backing is perfect for jackets, hoodies, and other flat fabrics. For a long-lasting hold, especially on textured or thick materials, you can combine ironing with a few stitches around the edge.
Chenille patches are primarily used for decorating and personalizing apparel. They’re most popular as varsity jacket patches, letterman patches, and number patches for school teams and organizations.
These patches add a bold, three-dimensional texture that stands out — perfect for expressing school spirit, sports achievements, brand logos, or creative fashion statements.
Beyond jackets, custom chenille patches are also used on bags, hats, hoodies, and uniforms for a premium, textured finish. They’re ideal for both personal projects and wholesale branding applications.
Chenille letters and number patches are thick, textured patches made from soft, looped yarn that gives them a fuzzy, three-dimensional look. They are commonly shaped like alphabet letters or digits and are most often used on varsity jackets, letterman jackets, and team uniforms to display names, initials, or jersey numbers.
These custom chenille patches are popular for representing school spirit, sports achievements, and brand identity. Available in various sizes, colors, and backing types (iron-on or sew-on), chenille letter and number patches offer a premium, durable finish that adds a bold, classic style to any garment.
Absolutely! We offer chenille patches wholesale and bulk ordering options for teams, schools, and clothing brands. Whether you need iron-on or sew-on chenille patches, you can customize every detail — shape, size, yarn color, and backing type.
