Small Tackle Twill Patch

A tackle twill patch builds the design from layers of cut fabric, while an embroidered patch builds the entire design from stitched thread. Twill fabric produces solid areas of smooth, even color, which suits bold lettering and simple shapes, and the satin-textured background adds depth that flat stitching cannot. Embroidery handles fine gradients and small detail better but costs more as stitch counts rise. Because this patch bonds with heat, it also skips the sewing step that many embroidered patches require.

A small tackle twill patch costs between $8.88 and $11.55 per unit, with price breaks at 50, 100, and 250 pieces. Per-unit cost depends on three factors: order quantity, whether the design uses one or two twill layers, and how many lines of text it carries, from one to three. A $62.50 setup charge applies to every order, including re-orders. Pre-production samples cost $100.00 for a set of two.

You order the patch as an add-on: the patch pricing and setup charge are added to the undecorated price of the bag or backpack you select. List both the bag and the patch on the same purchase order so the two items process together. This lets the patches arrive already applied to the finished bags instead of shipping separately.

Yes, lead times can run longer than the standard window during February because of the Chinese New Year holiday. Manufacturing partners operate at reduced capacity over that period, so orders placed in late January or February should build in extra time. Confirm current dates with your sales representative before committing to an in-hands deadline.

Custom fabric patches on bags appear most often in school spirit programs, athletic team travel bags, employee welcome kits, camp and outdoor programs, uniform accessory programs, and trade show merchandise. The raised fabric look reads as sewn-on craftsmanship, which fits varsity, collegiate, and heritage-style branding better than a flat printed logo. Buyers running these programs typically order one patch design and apply it across several bag styles.

These tackle twill patches are manufactured in China, which is reflected in the multi-week production schedule. No safety or environmental certifications are published for this item. If your program requires compliance documentation, request it before placing the order so it can be confirmed for your specific artwork and application.
