Design and Style
The flaming skull motif combines classic skull imagery with stylized flames to create an intense, edgy design. This makes the patch ideal for:
- Leather or denim biker jackets
- Gothic and metal band-inspired clothing
- Punk and alternative fashion pieces
- Streetwear jackets, hoodies, and vests

Materials and Construction
- Top fabric: Durable base fabric designed to support dense embroidery and repeated wear
- Embroidery thread: High-quality, colorfast threads for rich color and clear detailing
- Backing: Heat-activated iron-on adhesive layer for secure bonding to most fabrics
- Edges: Finished border to reduce fraying and maintain a clean outline
The patch is produced with close, tight stitching to capture the lines of the skull, contours of the flames, and contrasting color areas. This construction provides a lasting embroidered surface that holds up to everyday use on outerwear and bags.
Approximate Size Range
This custom embroidered flaming skull patch is available in various sizes to suit different placements and design needs. Typical size options range approximately from 3 inches to 10 inches (7.6 cm to 25.4 cm) on the longest side, depending on the selected design style and orientation.
- Smaller sizes (around 3–4 inches): Suitable for front chest areas, sleeves, caps, and small bags

How to Use: Iron-On Application Instructions
The patch includes an iron-on backing for convenient application. For best results, follow these general steps:
- Set a household iron to a high temperature appropriate for the garment fabric (typically cotton or cotton-blend setting). Turn off any steam function.
- Place the garment or item on a flat, heat-resistant surface.
- Position the flaming skull patch in the desired location with the embroidered side facing up and the adhesive side against the fabric.
- Cover the patch with a thin pressing cloth or cotton fabric to protect the embroidery from direct heat.
- Press the iron firmly over the covered patch for approximately 15–30 seconds, applying even pressure.
- Turn the garment inside out (if possible) and press the iron on the reverse side of the fabric behind the patch for additional bonding, again for about 15–30 seconds.
- Allow the patch and garment to cool completely before wearing or handling heavily.
Always follow the care instructions of the garment itself and test heat on a small inconspicuous area first when working with delicate fabrics.
Optional Sewing for Extra Durability
For heavy-duty use, such as on motorcycle jackets, frequently used backpacks, or workwear, sewing the patch after ironing is recommended. A sewn-on edge strengthens the attachment and helps the patch stay in place under regular movement, friction, and washing. The patch can be sewn by hand or with a sewing machine around the border.

Care and Maintenance
Proper care helps maintain both the flaming skull patch and the garment to which it is attached.
- Washing: When possible, turn the garment inside out before washing. Gentle machine wash or hand wash is preferred. Avoid very high water temperatures.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended. If using a dryer, choose a low to medium heat setting.
- Ironing after application: If the patch area needs pressing, place a cloth between the iron and the embroidery, and avoid prolonged direct heat on the patch surface.
- Edge inspection: Over time, check the edges of the patch. If any lifting occurs, reapply heat with a pressing cloth or add stitching to secure it.
