Decoration FAQ

Common questions.

Which lasts longer — embroidery or a leather patch?

Both are built to outlast the cap. Embroidery is stitched into the panel with colorfast Isacord polyester thread; patches are debossed leather sewn on all four edges. Nothing is glued or printed, so there is nothing to peel.

Can I put embroidery and a leather patch on the same cap?

Yes — a common combo is a leather patch front with embroidered text on the side panel. Configure the front as leather patch, then add a side location.

What artwork works best for each?

Embroidery loves bold shapes, lettering, and up to 8 thread colors. Leather patches are single-tone debossing, so they favor simple line marks and monograms. Send what you have — we digitize and prep in-house either way.
