We
create our logos, numbers, and nameplates by
permanently dyeing
the
colors
directly into tackle twill
patch material, hence the name
Dye Patch TM.
We start with the same tackle twill
material that the pros use for their jerseys, which we
precision-cut in the shape of logos, numbers, and
nameplates. Then we permanently dye
the colors directly into the
tackle twill. Finally, the items are applied
and sewn to your jerseys using a tight, finished stitch for
added durability and a professional look.
The end result is a fantastic
looking product that will last for years to come.
We create our
jersey customization using our Dye process not only for its superior output, but
also its many advantages over traditional methods such as screen printing and embroidery.
DYE
PATCH vs. SCREEN PRINTING
When using screens, there is a set-up charge associated
with each color in a design. By the time you add up all of the set-up charges for a multi-color design, it just isn't
worth it. We can dye a virtually unlimited number of colors without charging anything extra.
Plus, our Dyes print at a higher quality than screens, and won't flake or peel.
The design is permanent and actually becomes part of the
tackle twill material,
making it incredibly durable and giving it a brilliant, shiny appearance.
Screen print sits on top of the material, making it susceptible to damage.
DYE
PATCH vs. EMBROIDERY
While embroidery
may be the logo choice of
the pros, we all don't have the budget of the pros.
Embroidery is priced by "stitch count" and becomes very expensive when you
calculate how many stitches are in a detailed logo patch. Add to that the
set-up charges for "digitizing" a logo, and the
price for your logo patches begins to skyrocket! Embroidery
also lacks the ability to create high-detail designs since a needle and thread does the
printing. Our Dyes print super-crisp, high-detail designs for a fraction of the
cost of embroidery, and since the design becomes a permanent part of the patch, it won't
fray like the threads used to make embroidered designs!
SET-UP CHARGE AND RE-ORDERS
We don't apply any set-up charges when you
choose one of our stock designs. In fact, we don't charge a set-up on custom designs if you provide us the proper format.
Re-coloring of logos to match your jersey choice is included in the price.
Using our Dyeing process allows us to produce short runs so you can re-order
just one jersey if need be. Screen printing and
embroidery typically require larger quantity re-order amounts due to the time involved in the printing process. DYE
PATCH vs.
APPLIQUE
Applique is
the process of placing layers of material on top of one another and sewing
them together. Multiple layers of tackle twill used for logos,
numbers, and names not only adds time to your order, it also adds
unnecessary weight. Our single layer tackle twill Dye Patch logos,
numbers, and names perform better, last longer, and don't fray like multiple
layers do.

We
also sell our logo patches, numbers, and nameplates
separately, even if you didn't buy your jerseys from us.
