Custom PU Leather-Look and TPU Logo Patches for Clothing

Add a distinctive brand detail to your garments with custom logo patches available in PU leather-look or TPU constructions. Suitable for jeans, jackets, bags, caps, knitwear, and accessories, these labels can be customized in shape, size, color, logo treatment, thickness, and attachment method.

PU Leather-Look and TPU Options

• PU leather-look patches: Made with a polyurethane-based surface designed to resemble leather. They can provide a smooth, textured, or grain-effect appearance, depending on the selected material. PU is a synthetic material and should not be described as genuine leather.

• TPU labels and patches: Made from thermoplastic polyurethane, a flexible material suitable for molded or printed logo details. The finish and flexibility depend on the TPU grade and construction.

PU and TPU have different surface characteristics and production methods. They should be specified as separate material options or products, rather than treated as interchangeable terms. A physical sample helps confirm texture, flexibility, color, and thickness.

Custom Logo and Design Details

Personalize your patch with a brand name, logo, monogram, lettering, or decorative graphic. Depending on the material and process, design options may include:

• Printed or embossed logo details.

• Debossed lettering on suitable PU surfaces.

• Molded raised or recessed features for compatible TPU designs.

• Custom colors, shapes, borders, and corner profiles.

• Different thicknesses and surface textures.

Bold artwork and clear spacing generally reproduce more clearly, especially on small labels. Fine lines, small lettering, and complex graphics should be reviewed at the finished size before production.

Shapes, Sizes, and Placement

Choose rectangular, square, round, oval, or custom-cut shapes to suit your garment and brand style. Common placements include jean waistbands, jacket backs, sleeves, pockets, bag fronts, and accessory panels.

Size, thickness, and flexibility should be matched to the fabric and application area. Larger or firmer patches may require reinforcement, particularly on lightweight or stretch garments.

Attachment Options

Attachment can be selected according to the material and product construction:

• Sew-on: A practical option for garments and accessories that require stitched attachment.

• Heat-applied: Available for compatible materials and fabrics, subject to application testing.

• Adhesive backing: Suitable for selected surfaces or temporary applications where the adhesive is appropriate.

• Hook-and-loop: Provides removable attachment for compatible products.

The material alone does not determine attachment strength. Stitching, adhesive, fabric, surface treatment, and care conditions all affect performance. Confirm the attachment method during sampling.

Care and Performance Evaluation

PU surfaces and TPU constructions may respond differently to heat, washing, abrasion, and cleaning products. Test the finished patch on the actual garment before bulk production, especially if it will be exposed to frequent washing or garment finishing.

Sample checks can include:

• Logo definition, color, and surface appearance.

• Flexibility and fit on the intended garment.

• Stitching or adhesive attachment.

• Edge lifting, peeling, or surface changes.

• Appearance after the specified washing or cleaning process.

Do not assume that a patch is washable, waterproof, or suitable for high-temperature processing based on material name alone. Performance claims should match the approved construction and test conditions.

Sample Approval and Ordering

Before production, confirm the material type, dimensions, thickness, artwork, color, surface finish, attachment method, and packing requirements against an approved sample. For repeat orders, retain the approved sample and item reference, and confirm any changes to artwork or garment application.

Send us your logo, preferred material, patch dimensions, colors, garment type, attachment preference, quantity, and care requirements so suitable options can be reviewed and quoted.

Custom PU leather-look and TPU patches are packed according to their material, dimensions, thickness, surface finish, and backing. Packing is arranged to help reduce rubbing, bending, surface marks, and mixing between product versions.

Options can include:

• Counted inner packs: Patches grouped in agreed quantities for inventory and garment production.

• Separate material packing: PU and TPU versions packed and labeled separately.

• Separate design packing: Different sizes, colors, artwork, and backing types kept in distinct packs.

• Surface protection: Interleaving or protective wrapping where needed to reduce scuffing and pressure marks.

• Backing protection: Release liners retained on adhesive-backed patches where supplied.

• Carton identification: Item references, quantities, material type, and agreed batch details.

The packing list should clearly identify whether the order contains PU patches, TPU labels, or both. Final quantities per pack, carton dimensions, net weight, and gross weight are confirmed after specifications are approved.

Store patches in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, sharp objects, and heavy pressure. Follow the storage recommendations for the selected material and adhesive.
