Classic High School & College Varsity Chenille
Chenille patches are renowned for their soft, fuzzy, pile carpet-like texture. Created using a specialized loop-stitching machine that pulls yarn threads through a heavy felt backing, custom chenille patches deliver nostalgic charm and tactile warmth.
Anatomy of a Chenille Patch
Chenille patches typically consist of three distinct layers:
- Heavy Felt Base: A thick foundation layer that provides structural shape and backing stability.
- Plush Chenille Loops: Dense yarn loops that create the signature soft raised interior.
- Embroidered Perimeter & Details: Sharp outer embroidery borders and interior accent stitching for crisp lettering.
