What is a chenille patch?
A chenille patch is made with looped yarn stitched onto a felt base, creating a raised, towel-like texture. It’s best for bold letters, numbers and simple logos, and is the traditional patch for letterman and varsity jackets.
Soft, fuzzy and unmistakably varsity — chenille brings bold texture to letterman jackets, team gear and streetwear drops.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What’s chenille best for?
Varsity letters, numbers, mascots and bold brand marks. For detailed logos, choose embroidered or woven patches instead.
Can I add text to a chenille patch?
Yes. Small text is embroidered on top of the chenille so it stays readable.
Can chenille patches be ironed on?
Yes, with an iron-on backing. For jackets that will be worn for years, sew-on is more permanent.
