Digiprint Stock Flock Patches
The Digiprint Stock Flock Patch offers a premium, tactile solution for custom patches, utilizing the same pigmented ink printing process as the Digiprint Stock Twill. These patches feature a soft, velvety texture, thanks to the high-quality stock flock fabric. Available in a variety of vibrant colors, including Black, White, Blue, Navy, Red etc, they provide a unique look and feel while maintaining exceptional color vibrancy and detail.
The flocked fabric creates a smooth, plush surface that enhances the printed design, giving it a sophisticated, matte finish.
