About this service

Tactical patches are made to take abuse: attached with hook-and-loop, worn on plate carriers and packs, and handled constantly. They're usually fully embroidered, with no fabric showing, in subdued colors that suit field gear. We digitize tactical patches with full-coverage fills, a durable border, and designs that stay readable in subdued palettes, where contrast is low.

How we build it

  • Full-coverage embroidery with no fabric showing, for a dense, durable patch
  • Subdued, OCP, and tan/black palettes with enough contrast to stay readable
  • Merrowed or satin borders built to withstand constant handling
  • Standard tactical sizes, such as 3x2 inch rectangles and 3 inch rounds

They can, because the colors are close in tone. We adjust outlines and contrast so key details stay visible even in subdued palettes.
