The product, spec'd out
Everything about how a SwapCrest patch is made, holds, and wears. No sewing, no pinholes, no ruined shirts.
The face: woven, and it looks embroidered
The patch face is a woven textile with a real satin-stitch or merrow border, so the edge reads as genuine embroidery, not a shiny sticker or a plastic magnet. It is deliberately thin, about 1.3 to 1.7 mm where it shows.
- Personalized names are digitally printed into pre-bordered woven blanks, so a one-off name carries no setup fee.
- Company logos can be fully woven or embroidered in bulk, where the one-time setup is shared across the order.
- Die-cut to the shape of the artwork, so it looks custom, not like a generic square patch.
The hold: it lies flat and never curls
Curling corners are what ruin most magnetic patches. SwapCrest is engineered against it.
- A two-piece magnet sandwich: a thin front patch and a hidden inner backer cut to the exact same outline.
- The hold is placed near the edges, not just the center, so every corner is pinned down and stays flush.
- A flat-cut, low-memory magnet, laminated flat, so the edges cannot spring up.
- Strong, flexible, and comfortable to wear all day. Keep away from pacemakers, ICDs, and cards with magnetic strips.
Three holds for any garment
STANDARD
Shirt
Sized to hold flush on a tee, polo, or dress shirt.
MID
Sweater
A thicker magnet for knit and sweater weight.
PREMIUM
Jacket
The strongest hold, for a blazer or jacket.
Removable, and washable
This is the whole point: pull the patch off and the shirt washes clean. You never have a logo sewn into a shirt you want to keep.
- Remove the patch before washing. That single habit avoids every failure mode at once.
- If it ever gets washed by accident: cold water, gentle cycle, mesh bag, line dry. Never a hot dryer.
- The inner piece carries subtle swapcrest.com branding, so it doubles as a fridge magnet or a business card.
Make it yours
- Print your name onto a stitched-border blank. No setup fee, no minimum.
- Add your company or personal logo.
- Order for a whole team: one woven logo, every employee's name printed on top.
- Modular by design: a name piece hooks above the logo piece. Leave the job, keep your name.
