Elbow Patches
Elbow patches are not just protective details for worn elbows but also stylish accents for everything from sweaters and blazers to jackets and coats.The elbow patches on this page come in various materials and textures, suitable for garments ranging from sweaters to outerwear. You'll find stylish patches in rugged suede, textured leather, smooth cotton, corduroy, and even velour.Choosing the Right Elbow Patch
Depending on the garment you want to reinforce, there are a few things to consider. For example, if you're protecting the elbows of a blazer, we recommend patches with a thickness under 1 mm. For heavier blazers, sweaters, or cardigans, suede patches, which are thicker, are a good choice.You should also consider whether the garment needs to be machine washable. If so, velour or faux leather patches are recommended. Genuine leather, suede, or real leather patches are not suitable for machine washing.Patch Thickness
Some patches are thicker and stiffer, with a thickness of 1.6 mm, making them ideal for heavier fabrics like coats. Velour or faux leather patches are thinner, with a thickness of 0.6 mm. Thinner patches are more flexible and therefore better suited for lighter fabrics, like blazers.Washing Garments with Elbow Patches
Certain materials should not be machine washed. Patches made of nappa leather, suede, or real leather should be dry cleaned only. You can gently wipe them with a damp cloth, but nothing more. Velour and faux leather patches can be washed in a standard machine cycle.Sew-On or Iron-On
Most patches on this page are perforated, meaning they come with pre-punched sewing holes, making them much easier to sew. Some patches also have an adhesive backing, allowing you to iron them on first for easier sewing.Some products are designed solely for ironing on and do not have sewing holes. The advantage of these iron-on elbow patches is that they are quick to apply and stay securely in place without stitching.

Elbow patches are stylish details to sew onto elbows, offering both protection and a refined look. Elbows endure significant wear, and with a pair of quality patches, you can extend the lifespan of your garments.On this page, you'll find all our elbow patches in materials like suede, nappa leather, velour, and faux leather. The patches vary in size, with lengths ranging from 11 cm to 15 cm. You'll also have several colours and shades to choose from. Popular colours for elbow patches include camel, black, various shades of brown, and different shades of red.Elbow Patches for Different Garments
Different garments are constructed in different ways. Blazers with elbow patches are both stylish and sometimes necessary, as elbows tend to wear out quickly. Blazers are typically made of thinner fabrics, so elbow patches with a thickness under 1 mm are ideal. For example, velour elbow patches are a great option. These patches have a thickness of 0.75 mm, making them thin, lightweight, and more flexible than suede patches.For heavier fabrics like tweed blazers, thicker sweaters, or outerwear like jackets or coats, nappa or suede elbow patches are a suitable choice. Here, you can order premium suede elbow patches in various colours. Suede patches are thicker, with a 1.6 mm thickness, and offer a weight and texture that other patches lack. The surface of these suede patches is also more rugged.
