Embroidery Patches
Embroidery patches have been popular for many years and are still vastly used in society today. They have a wide variety of uses, including:
- People designing their own custom badges to enhance their garments.
- Band merchandise.
- Businesses rolling out new branded workwear.
And these aren’t the only uses too.
But why would somebody use an embroidery patch instead of direct embroidery? Firstly, it’s a cheaper option – especially if somebody is only buying one badge. Secondly, they’re more versatile and aren’t limited to one garment once you’ve bought the badge. They can be attached to clothing and accessories such as bags, shoes and towels.
As we mentioned, one of the most popular ways that embroidery patches are used is for personalising garments. This is a way for people to express themselves and show off their interests, or cool designs. A lot of the time people choose to showcase their favourite bands on their custom patches.
HappyJapan machines are capable of producing intricate embroidery work – as shown on the lion on the crest above. So, if you have designs that require a little more attention to detail with some finicky parts, that’s not a problem.
One of the hottest embroidery designs at the minute is people personalising their garments and accessories with their initials. People are putting their initials on all sorts but bags are a very popular choice for initial embroidery, take Mulberry for example.

Direct Embroidery Designs on Clothing
You’ll usually find direct embroidery designs on clothing for schoolwear and branded workwear. There’s a reason why these two industries use this method so often – the regal finish and image that embroidery portrays shines your brand in a good light and gives an impression of a well-established business or school.
Branded workwear and school uniforms serve the same purposes. A set uniform for all employees or students drives home a sense of togetherness. This sense of empowerment shows that workers and pupils are all on the same level and are all working hard to achieve the same goals and objectives.
As you can see from the image above, HappyJapan machines are capable of producing great results for your branded workwear.

This can give off the wrong impression of your brand as a whole – if you can’t make sure that your own uniform is the best quality, then will that reflect in your actual work?
For schools, they have a rich history that they’re proud of. Part of the school’s identity is its branded colours and uniform. If a uniform is produced with shoddy stitching and poor branding, it cheapens the heritage of the school. And if you’re not producing quality uniforms, the chances are that the school will seek a new supplier or parents of the pupil will start to look elsewhere than your school uniform shop.
