Branding comparison
Woven labels vs Patches and metal logo plates: Which Is Better for Branding Bags?
Woven labels: a logo label is woven from thread and stitched onto the bag. Patches and metal logo plates: a moulded rubber/PVC patch, leather patch or metal logo plate is stitched or riveted onto the bag.
Here is how the two methods compare for logo branding on bulk bag orders.
Quick answer
Woven labels suits private-label and retail bags; patches and metal logo plates suits backpacks, gym and outdoor bags. Both handle detail similarly.
