Bringing badges back

As we say goodbye to the iconic This is England 90, we’re taking a heavy influence from the gang’s signature style with our range of woven badges._x000D_ _x000D_ [caption id="attachment_1333" align="aligncenter" width="500"]

We use specialist die cutting techniques that allow us to create badges of any shape, perfect for a custom fit. _x000D_ _x000D_ Quality finish for every material _x000D_ _x000D_ Our woven badges have a high quality finish where you can choose from a non-woven or woven backing, and overlocked edges. _x000D_ _x000D_ Overlocked edges in particular help to create that professional look for your badges. This technique creates a clean, raised edge around your design, making the badge ‘pop’ away from the fabric it sits on. _x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ To make it easy for you to customise any of your clothes with badges, we can also add a traditional iron-on backing. This means you don’t have to worry about sewing your badges on, just line up where they need to be and place a hot iron on top to seal it in place._x000D_ _x000D_ [caption id="attachment_1338" align="aligncenter" width="645"]

They add a high quality finish to t-shirts and jackets without the need to disrupt the original design of the garment. _x000D_ _x000D_ For independent designers, woven badges are an affordable way to achieve the same level of finish, helping to give plain garments that extra touch of character._x000D_ _x000D_ Show your support _x000D_ _x000D_ We can also create more traditional variations of our woven badges for sports brands and local clubs or groups. These use the same high quality techniques as our custom patches, with plenty of options for you to change the design to suit how you’re going to use it._x000D_ _x000D_ For example, add a self-adhesive backing to your badge so you can remove it without an issue if your team loses. We won’t tell if you don’t!_x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ [caption id="attachment_1353" align="aligncenter" width="500"]
