Im following the comments on patches since months now..and i rly ask myself:

What u guys'n' girls are prefering?
Woven?
Embroidered?
Printed?

I saw often 'flaming' against printed ones - why?
Some Printed gets comments like: Hell, yeah, òle, great..blabla
and other printed gets: bah, bad quality etc etc.

Optical in a pic - they look all nice - imo. where is the difference?

Myself: im prefering Woven > Embroidered > Printed.

btw. there are different print-types. some are good some are bad (i guess) . which type u think its a 'Good'-print-type?


KorgullTheExterminator

I think woven is the best, because the colors mostly look vibrant and printed patches tend to look lifeless and drab.

SatanicSchizo

Woven, but good quality embroidered can be cool too

Jimmh

Woven and embroidered but I have two printed (+backpatches are of course printed) because I haven't find good ones to replace them.

// But the most I like embroidered.

Thrash attacker

totaly agree ! but woven for the win ! and embroidered when its the only choice you have ! imo printed sucks

Woven for more complex designs. Embroidered for logo patches. Printed only for backpatches, sometimes.

Necrosathanas

Printed sucks. Embroidered is okay sometimes, but of course I do prefer woven.

Tankard Emptyer

Aint easy to say. Woven are great, some embroidered too (especially the Iron Kobra patches, and of course my self embroidered Master patch!).
And old "Siebdrücke" (some please translate it) are also awesome as fuck. Mainly the Slayer stuff I have :D

ToxikAssault

I like those huge-ass shaped embroidered patches.

Marci

I like all 3 kinds, but most printed patches suck, silk screen printed is the real deal!

some of the printed arent that bad imo...
I have a Nuclear Assault one, with the Nuclear-Smily on it, its pretty nice imo. ..and never saw it as woven or embroidered.

Personal im prefering woven too..much more over the rest ;)

BlackMetalRights

Woven for denim, embroidered for leather, and screen printed for pants.

Executer

I have some printed patches, most of them are great, but I prefer woven ones. If there exists a woven version of a patch I try to get it.
But for logo patches I prefer embroided ones, because I often shape them.

Slaughter Lord

I like my punk logo patches printed and I think I will do the same for a big Midnight above my backpatch, but apart from that Woven > Embroidered > Printed.

Wrathchylde666

I prefer woven, licensed patches. My girlfriend is into punk, and she likes the printed stuff. Printed works for the whole DIY thing that punk has. But for me, I definitely love the quality of a woven patch over everything else. Its just a shame that so many bands dont have woven patches.

Embroidered definetly for me.That's what I have on my jacket.

doyle92

never get any printed patches from metalnegro.com
worst quality i have ever seen, honestly.

R.J.

Don't get any patches from metalnegro. They're overpriced and all shitty quality.

Blüdrayne

printed patches look very plastic to me, usually.

Oby Machado

i like every kind of patch in my jacket, sew a lot of woven make that the jacket look like a album cards in an album, and sreen printed are pretty cool if they are made with quality and love, i really don´t like sublimated printing, those looks more like a card.

TThrasher

Embroidered

slb1995

For album art woven are best. For logos it's embroidered, and printed for back patches.. so all are great.

bayernpirat

the only printed ones I´m accepting are backpatches.
Woven for colored and/or detailed and embroidered for logo patches
