A 100% embroidered patch is completely covered with threads, with no visible twill background. This results in a more intricate and heavier design, making it best suited for jackets, rather than lighter fabrics like shirts.

Designs with fine details or small lettering that may not translate well in embroidery, woven patches are a viable option. These patches are made by interweaving threads onto a fabric backing, resulting in a dense and detailed construction. Ideal for complex designs, woven patches effectively showcase small details.
