Materials and Construction Quality
The dragon crest patch is produced using durable base fabric and premium embroidery threads.

The overall construction is intended to withstand frequent handling, light abrasion, and regular use on everyday garments like denim jackets, canvas backpacks, and utility vests.
Dimensions and Size Information
The patch is available in a general size range of approximately 3 to 10 inches, depending on the selected design style or variation. This allows you to choose a smaller accent size or a larger statement piece for the center of a jacket or bag.
- Approximate size range: 3–10 inches (7.6–25.4 cm) on the longest side
- Shape: shield-style emblem, slightly elongated vertically
- Thickness: typical embroidered patch thickness suitable for garments and bags
Please note that the exact dimensions may vary slightly based on the specific version of the dragon crest design and production tolerances.
How to Use and Apply
This dragon crest patch can be attached to most fabric surfaces using either the iron-on backing or traditional sewing methods. It is suitable for cotton, denim, canvas, and similar fabrics.
Iron-On Application Instructions

- Turn the garment inside out (if possible) and press again on the reverse side for additional adherence.
Sew-On Application Instructions

Care and Maintenance
Proper care helps maintain the appearance and attachment of the embroidered patch over time.
