Soft, bold, and a bit flash, chenille patches bring that classic varsity look with a plush, 3D texture. At Patch Makers NZ, we craft custom chenille patches for letterman jackets, school uniforms, hats, hoodies, and club gear. Repping your team, house, or brand? Too easy. Send us your design and we’ll shape it into a high-quality chenille patch with clean outlines and tidy finishing, delivered NZ-wide.
The OG varsity vibe. Classic chenille keeps things bold and nostalgic, perfect for initials, numbers, house letters, and school crests. That fuzzy pile + sharp border = instant character on jackets and hoodies. Great for sports teams, colleges, and streetwear drops across Aotearoa.
Texture meets trend. Go camo, glitter, smileys, Greek letters, monograms, whatever fits your look. Ideal for bags, outerwear, and uniforms when you want a statement piece with a rugged or urban spin.
Add depth and durability with a layered felt base. It sharpens the silhouette and keeps the patch structured, mint for letterman jackets, club logos, and statement initials that need to last.
Best of both worlds: fluffy chenille plus crisp embroidery for outlines, fine text, or logo details. A go-to for teams and brands wanting softness with extra definition.
Level up with metallic threads (gold, silver, or colour metallic). Premium contrast, luxe finish, perfect for fashion labels, limited merch, or upscale school jackets.

Best for maximum durability on workwear and uniforms.

Quick application with heat; ideal for jackets, hats, and school patches.

Peel-and-stick for temporary events or promos.

The classic thick edge for round/square shapes — clean, durable, slightly raised.

Maximum freedom for unique outlines with a sleek, modern finish.
From the French for “caterpillar,” chenille uses short, velvety yarns that create a plush, fuzzy texture, ideal for varsity and letterman patches.
Not necessarily. We offer sew-on, iron-on, hook & loop (Velcro®), and adhesive backings. Pick the one that suits your garment and how often you’ll swap patches.
Usually a touch more than standard embroidered patches due to the plush yarn and extra detailing but the premium, high-impact look is worth it for jackets and statement pieces.
We stitch thick chenille yarns onto a felt or twill base. The yarn gives that raised, soft feel; the base adds structure and durability for jackets, bags, and uniforms.
Absolutely. From block letters and numbers to custom logos and mascots, we’ll size and shape it to suit. Free digital mockup before production.
Yep, NZ-wide: Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Hamilton, Tauranga, Dunedin, and everywhere in between.
