Imprint area — will your logo fit?
SublimationThe imprint area on this product is 9 inches wide by 9 inches tall, printed by sublimation. Your artwork prints inside the dashed area below — nothing outside it prints. Products often look larger in a photo than the space you can actually print on.

Description
Dye Sublimated Emblems capture fine detail and color gradients that screen printing usually misses, making them a strong pick for a youth sports jersey or a full-color team logo patch.
Full-color dye sublimation prints any custom shape up to 9 inches square, with text no smaller than 2mm (9pt) to stay legible. The process suits intricate artwork of any complexity, cut precisely to the design outline. Dye Sublimated Emblems are not available on non-woven, polyester, or dry bags, and lead time runs 10 business days after art approval, with samples on the same 10-day schedule. Less-than-minimum orders are not available. Production comes from China.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between dye sublimated patches and embroidered patches?
Dye sublimated patches print the design directly into the fabric, which reproduces gradients, photographs, and fine linework that embroidery thread cannot match. Embroidered patches build the design from stitched thread, which adds a raised texture but limits color counts and blurs small details. Choose sublimation when artwork includes shading, color blends, or photographic elements, and embroidery when a traditional stitched look matters more than detail.
What kinds of products and events are dye sublimated emblems used for?
Dye sublimated emblems are most often applied to caps, jackets, uniforms, backpacks, and blankets for team merchandise, company workwear, school and club spiritwear, trade show giveaways, and commemorative event gear. Sports teams, breweries, outdoor brands, and emergency services order them when a logo needs full photographic color on fabric rather than stitched thread.
How much do custom dye sublimated emblems cost per unit?
Custom dye sublimated emblems run from $2.17 to $3.44 per patch depending on size and order quantity. The 2" x 2", 3" x 3", and 4" x 2" sizes price at $2.63 each for 50 pieces and drop to $2.34 at 1,000, $2.25 at 5,000, and $2.17 at 10,000 pieces. The larger 4" x 4" and 6" x 3" sizes start at $3.44 each for 50 pieces and fall to $2.63 at 10,000. Patch size, quantity, and a $62.50 setup charge drive the final price, along with the cost of the blank product the emblem decorates.
Is there a setup charge for custom patches, and does it apply to re-orders?
Yes, a $62.50 setup charge applies to every custom patch order, and the charge repeats on re-orders of a previously produced design. To price a finished item, add the patch cost and setup charge to the blank pricing of the product the emblem will decorate. List both the blank product and the patch on your purchase order so the two components process together.
Can I see a sample of a dye sublimated patch before placing a full order?
Yes, pre-production samples are available for a $62.50 charge once your artwork is approved. Reviewing a physical sample lets you check color accuracy and the die-cut edge on your exact design before committing to a full production run.
Where are dye sublimated emblems manufactured?
Dye sublimated emblems are manufactured in China, with a listed country of origin of CN. The overseas production is why factory capacity drops around the Chinese New Year holiday, so build extra buffer time into orders that must deliver in the first quarter.
