About genuine leather
Genuine leather is the traditional choice for a heritage or premium brand. Because it is a natural material, colour and grain vary slightly from patch to patch, which is exactly what gives a genuine leather patch its hand-made look.
Laser engraving burns into the surface for a deep, dark mark. Debossing presses your design into the leather for a tactile impression you can feel.

Genuine Leather Patches FAQs
Can’t find what you are looking for? Our team replies to every enquiry within one working day.
Ask Our TeamWill every genuine leather patch look the same?
No, and that is part of the appeal. Genuine leather is a natural material, so the grain and shade vary slightly from patch to patch. If you need every patch to be identical, microfibre or faux leather is more consistent.
Is genuine leather suitable for caps?
Yes. Genuine leather is our most popular choice for premium caps and retail merchandise. It is usually sewn on, and the stitching that attaches it forms a neat border around the patch.
