Landmark set
Three to six patches, each with a signature view, exhibit or trail. Visitors who buy one often look for the rest.
For gift shops, parks, museums & attractions
The souvenir visitors collect at every stop.
Patches are light, size-free and cheap to ship home, and collectors buy one everywhere they go. Build a series for your destination, test each design in a small run, and reorder only the ones that sell.

Where your patch goes home
A souvenir patch keeps working after the trip. It goes on the bags and jackets people wear everywhere.
Patches vs. other souvenir staples
Magnets, mugs and shirts all sell. Patches do it in a fraction of the space, with nothing to break and no sizes to guess.
| Question | Woven patches | Mugs, shirts & breakables |
|---|---|---|
| Display space | A full series hangs on one pegboard or spinner | Shelves, rails and size racks |
| Breakage | Nothing to chip, crack or bubble-wrap | Ceramics and glass break in transit and in the shop |
| Sizes | One size for every visitor | Apparel needs a size run per design |
| Getting it home | Flat and light, fits in a pocket or an envelope | Bulky in a carry-on |
| New designs | Test 50, reorder the winners in one click | Big minimums make every new design a gamble |
| Collectibility | Visitors build a collection across destinations | One mug is usually enough |
Souvenir series that sell through
Collectors love a set. Series ideas that keep visitors coming back for the next one:
Anniversary editions
A dated patch for a founding year, a centennial or a season. It sells harder because it won't come back.
Trail & summit badges
Proof-of-visit patches for a hike, a summit or a scenic drive, sold at the trailhead store or visitor center.
Exhibit tie-ins
A patch for each temporary exhibit, released with the show and retired when it closes.
Members-only design
A patch available only to members or season pass holders, used as a perk rather than a product.
Kids' explorer program
Junior ranger or explorer patches handed out when an activity booklet is finished. They're cheap to give and remembered for years.
From artwork to pegboard
Order each design separately, in the quantity you expect to sell. No quote round-trips.
One design at a time
Load each landmark or exhibit as its own patch so every design gets its own run size and its own price.
Skylines checked by hand
Detailed landmark art is where weaving needs care, so a person reviews every file within a day before anything is woven.
Delivered ready to hang
Finished in 6–10 business days and sent by tracked post from Salt Lake City, flat and ready for the pegboard.
Reorder the winners
Every approved design is saved. Restock a sell-out in one click, and let the slow ones run down.
Making a souvenir patch that sells
Design for the pegboard
- Put the place name on the patch, because visitors buy proof of where they've been
- 3″ reads well on a display; 2–2.6″ suits caps and smaller bags
- Keep each design to a few strong colors so it reads from across the shop
Running a series
- Launch three designs, not ten, and add more once you know what sells
- Order each design separately in the quantity it will actually sell
- Iron-on backing is the easiest for visitors; say so on the display card
Worked example: a three-landmark launch
A museum shop starts with three 3″ designs (the building, a star exhibit and the city) at 100 each, three runs of $130. After a season the best seller is reordered at 500, where a 3″ patch drops to $0.55 each, and the slowest design is simply not restocked.
Souvenir patches, answered
Most shops use a 3″ patch because it reads well on a pegboard. That is $1.30 each for a run of 100 ($130) and $0.55 each at 500, which leaves room for a normal retail markup. Smaller 2″ cap patches start at $78 for 50. No setup fee is added at checkout.
Yes. Standard runs start at 50 per design, so a six-design series can start at 50 of each. A Proof Pack of 5 lets you check a new design before committing to a full run.
Iron-on is the most visitor-friendly, since it goes on denim, canvas and cotton with a household iron. Patches for nylon backpacks and technical jackets should be sewn, and a note on the display card helps.
Yes. Approved artwork is saved to your account, so a reorder takes one click, with the same colors and finish as the first run.
Yes. We ship to the USA and Canada, from Salt Lake City, with tracking. Production takes 6–10 business days after the artwork is approved.
Micro-HD weaving holds much finer detail than embroidery, so skylines, mountain ridges and small lettering stay legible. A 3″ patch is $1.30 each at 100 pieces. Check fine lines against our minimum line thickness guide before you upload.
Give visitors a souvenir they'll wear. Launch three designs, watch the pegboard, and reorder the ones visitors pick first.
