Leather Patches with Velcro

Community Laser Talk

Does anyone have a good source for leather patches (Leatherette is fine) with velcro on the back instead of self adhesive?

I have no experience. Just a search result.

Thanks! That’s exactly what I need but not exactly what I was hoping to pay for them. :smiley:

Looks like I’ll order a sheet of velcro with adhesive and some blank leather patches and assemble them myself. I was hoping to get them down to a cost of $3 or $4. I did a ton of searching but haven’t come up with anything cost effective yet. I’ve found a few on Etsy but they come lasered and I wanted to keep the unit cost down because it’s for a charity and I’m donating them (58 of them!). :slight_smile:

I do a bit of leather work. Hand sewing that many patches will be a labor of love. I’d suggest finding a local or semi-local leather repair shop to do them on their sewing machine. Cost will go up, but our time is also valuable.

I did a double-stitch border on a man’s belt (about 45" oal, so roughly 180" stitch length) a couple weeks ago and I had a bit under 30 hours in just the stitching. That was hand done, two-needle saddle stitch.
