How to Use the Forest Tree Iron On Patch
This patch is designed for application to most fabrics that can tolerate a high-heat iron, such as denim, cotton, and some blends.
- Recommended surfaces: denim jackets, cotton jackets, flannel shirts, canvas backpacks, canvas tote bags, vests, hoodies, and fabric-based gear
- Not recommended for very delicate, heat-sensitive, or heavily stretchy materials
Iron-On Application Instructions
- Set your iron to a high temperature suitable for cotton or similar fabrics; ensure the steam function is turned off.
- Place the garment or item on a flat, heat-resistant surface.
- Position the forest tree patch in the desired location with the embroidered side facing up and adhesive side touching the fabric.
- Cover the patch with a thin pressing cloth or piece of cotton fabric to protect the embroidery.
- Press the hot iron firmly onto the covered patch for approximately 15–30 seconds, applying even pressure.
- Carefully lift the iron and allow the patch and fabric to cool slightly.
- Turn the garment or item inside out, place the pressing cloth over the back of the patch area, and press with the iron again for additional 15–30 seconds to strengthen the bond.
- Allow the item to cool completely before wearing or using.
Optional Sewing for Extra Security
For garments or gear that will experience heavy use, such as hiking backpacks or daily-wear jackets, stitching the patch after ironing can increase durability.
- Use a needle and thread that matches the border color of the patch.
- Sew around the edge of the patch with small, even stitches to reinforce the attachment.
- This method helps the patch remain secure through frequent washing, bending, or friction.

Care and Maintenance
