Custom Morale Patches
Custom morale patches are a simple way to show your team identity and pride. You can add a logo, slogan, name or any design that represents your group. First responders, police teams, military units, clubs and other organizations across Canada use them on uniforms, tactical gear, bags and equipment.
At Stitch Patches CA we make custom morale patches based on your idea. You can choose the design, material, size and backing that you need. Woven patches work well for detailed designs. PVC patches are a good choice for outdoor and regular use. We also offer cotton, twill and felt options.
When you order from us you get a patch made for your team and not a basic ready made design. You can choose Velcro, iron on or sew on backing based on how you want to use the patch. Just share your idea with us and we will help you create a morale patch that your team will be happy to wear.

Customise Your Morale Patch
A morale patch is built around your own design a logo, symbol, slogan, or callsign rather than picked from a stock catalogue. You choose the shape, size, colors, and text, and we turn it into a design proof for you to check before anything is produced.
Shape doesn’t have to be a standard circle or rectangle. A patch can be cut to follow your artwork’s custom outline. Size depends on where it’s going: small morale patches suit hats and caps, while a larger patch on a jacket or bag gives more room for detail. You don’t need a finished print ready file to start a personalized morale patch a logo a rough sketch, or a written description of your idea is enough to create your own morale patch from scratch.
Choose the Right Material and Backing
The right material depends on how the patch will be used. Embroidered morale patches give a stitched, textured finish and suit most text and logo designs. Woven morale patches are flatter and smoother, which works better when your artwork has fine text or small detail that embroidery would blur. PVC morale patches are moulded rather than stitched, with a raised, bold finish that holds up well outdoors — a common choice for tactical and airsoft gear that sees rougher handling.
Backing works the same way, based on whether the patch needs to move or stay put. Velcro (hook-and-loop) backing lets a patch swap easily between vests, bags, jackets, and other compatible gear, so it’s the standard choice for removable patches. Sew-on backing suits a patch meant for one fixed placement on a uniform or jacket.

Custom Morale Patches For All Occasions
Morale Patches for Personal Use
A morale patch works anywhere someone wants to show who they are, or what they’re part of. Teams, clubs and organisations often use them the same way, as a shared design that everyone in the group wears. First responder groups do the same on uniforms and jackets.
For tactical and airsoft use, morale patches usually go on vests, backpacks or plate carriers, since they can be swapped out quickly when needed. Hats and caps work well for smaller designs, while bags and jackets give more room for detail.
Plenty of orders are for one person, not a group. A single custom patch on a jacket or bag is just as common as a full set made for a team. However you plan to use it, the same custom morale patch process works for individuals and groups ordering from anywhere in Canada.
Once you give final approval for the digital proof and specifications, our expert production team will work on them. We understand that sometimes changes are necessary, so we offer free modifications until you are completely satisfied with the design.
Your patches are crafted from high-grade materials and carefully produced using the best techniques. Each patch undergoes a rigorous quality control inspection before it leaves our facility, ensuring it meets both your and our high standards.
The custom morale patches are then neatly packed in boxes and shipped directly to your doorstep. Fast turnaround times are our minimum aim, with many orders completed within 5 days.
frequently asked questions
A morale patch is a small patch typically embroidered or PVC that displays a symbol, slogan, or design used to express identity, humour, or team spirit rather than an official rank or unit insignia. They’re worn on tactical gear, uniforms, jackets, and bags, usually attached with hook-and-loop backing so they can be swapped easily.
Generally, no — morale patches are not part of an official regulation uniform and aren’t automatically authorized for wear on duty. Whether one can be worn depends entirely on the specific branch, unit, and command’s own uniform policy, and it often comes down to a commander’s discretion in a given situation. Anyone unsure should check their unit’s current uniform regulations directly rather than assume a patch is approved.
PVC patches are molded and hold up well outdoors, resisting moisture and rough handling, which makes them a common choice for tactical gear used in the field. Embroidered patches give the traditional stitched-thread look and suit gear or uniforms where that classic appearance matters more than weather resistance. Many people order both PVC for field use, embroidered for a more dressed-down or everyday look.
Hook-and-loop (Velcro) backing is the standard choice for morale patches worn on tactical gear, vests, backpacks, or plate carriers, since it lets a patch be swapped out in seconds. Sew-on backing works better when a patch is meant to stay permanently on a uniform or piece of clothing rather than move between items.
Production starts with your design being turned into a digital proof for review, then the approved artwork is produced as either an embroidered patch stitched with thread on a backing fabric or a PVC patch, which is molded from your design in raised, colored plastic. The finished patch is then cut to shape and fitted with the backing you’ve chosen.
Most morale patches attach with hook-and-loop backing to a matching loop panel already sewn onto gear, vests, or bags — you simply press the patch on and peel it off to swap. Patches without a loop panel available are attached by sewing around the border, or with iron-on backing on fabric that can safely take heat.
Yes — a morale patch can combine a name, callsign, flag, symbol, or custom image into a single design, which is common for team, unit, or personal patches. Sending your text, artwork, or reference image together lets the layout be built around everything you want on the patch.
No — custom morale patches can be ordered with no minimum quantity, whether you need a single patch or enough for a full team or unit. The same design and ordering process applies regardless of quantity.
Morale patches are commonly made around 2 x 3 inches, which fits standard hook-and-loop panels on plate carriers, bags, and jackets while staying legible at a normal viewing distance. Designs with small text or fine detail may need a slightly larger patch to stay readable, while simple logos or icons can work smaller.
Yes — teams and units can order matching morale patches from one core design, and request variations, such as different names or callsigns, on an otherwise identical patch as part of the same order. This is a common approach for units, clubs, and workplace or hobby groups ordering together.
Durability depends on the material: PVC patches are molded and generally resist moisture, dirt, and rough handling well, making them suited to field or outdoor use. Embroidered patches are more prone to fraying at the stitched edges over time if the border isn’t well finished, but they hold up fine for everyday uniform or gear use with normal care.
Yes — morale patches aren’t limited to military or law enforcement personnel. Civilians commonly order them for gear, jackets, hats, and bags, and many designs humorous, hobby-related, or symbolic are made specifically with civilian use in mind morale patches aren’t limited to military or law enforcement personnel. Civilians commonly order them for gear, jackets, hats, and bags, and many designs — humorous, hobby-related, or symbolic are made specifically with civilian use in mind.
You send your design idea a logo, image, sketch, or written description and it’s developed into a digital proof for you to review before production starts. Once you approve the proof along with your chosen material, size, and backing, the patch is produced to match it.
