Die cutting
CNC precision moulds cut from your artwork, then die-cut in a single pass — shaped outlines, cut-outs and fine detail at consistent volume, every piece checked at the edge.

What we do
From one drawing to a finished patch, all six processes run under our own roof: die cutting, laser, hot press, injection, screen printing and sewing.
02
Laser cutting
Fine outlines, cut-outs and marking go to the laser — a clean edge without burrs, suited to small runs of shaped patches and pieces needing delicate lettering.
03
Hot pressing
Embossing, foil and grain are formed in one operation, with temperature, pressure and dwell controlled in three stages so relief depth stays consistent across a batch.
04
Injection moulding
We mould the soft and rigid plastic parts used in composite patches — combined with leather or hardware — with shrinkage and colour consistency held in check.
05
Screen printing
Multi-colour blocks, gradients and fine lines are laid on by screen printing, finished with a protective top layer for wear and rub resistance.
06
Sewing & assembly
Appliqué, lettering, hardware and leather come together at the sewing station — topstitching, close stitching and painted edges to the design.

Leather patch applications
The same patch behaves differently on a waistband, a cap front or an appliqué. These pages separate the applications so you can match one to your own product.
Custom leather patches
Start from your artwork or an approved sample, and end up with the patch your brand actually wants.
Denim & jeans patches
The back waist of a pair of jeans is the classic place for a leather patch — and the place that takes the most punishment.
Hat & cap patches
A cap's front patch is the visual centre of the whole product, and it is made differently from an apparel label.
Iron-on & adhesive
A patch can be fixed without a stitch line — provided the adhesive suits the fabric.
Embroidered leather
Putting thread onto leather adds a layer of relief and hand feel that print or foil cannot.
Trucker hat patches
The patch on a trucker cap front sets the perceived grade of the whole hat — and it is the step most often got wrong.
YIPIN
Building a better Yipin
Yipin began in Huizhou, China. Our workshop spirit runs through every step: each process carries the care of the craftsman, and every inch shows their judgement. That is why each detail and each operation is worked and reworked until it is right.
We look past surface appearance to the quality inside and the ideas a product carries. Each design draws on the meeting point between European and American tradition and contemporary fashion, combining established craft with modern design.
Our aim is a level of service that lets people feel both the character of the product and the workshop culture behind it.
