General pricing pages are useful, but sometimes it's easier to see the real math for a specific, common scenario. So here's exactly what a 20-player team ordering jacket back patches would pay, worked through with real numbers.
A 20-player roster needs a back patch for team jackets — a common request from booster clubs and athletic programs. Twenty players rounds up to our 25-piece pricing tier, which also builds in a small buffer for a new player joining mid-season or a replacement patch down the line.
At 25 pieces, embroidered patches run $2.65 per patch, for a total of $66.25. Turnaround is 10–14 days from proof approval. This is the right call for most team jacket programs — durable, professional-looking, and the most affordable option at this quantity.
If you want the classic varsity texture — thick, fuzzy, dimensional — chenille runs $2.90 per patch at 25 pieces, for a total of $72.50. Turnaround is slightly longer at 12–16 days. The extra $6.25 across the whole order is a small price for the look most people actually picture when they think "letterman jacket patch."
| Embroidered | Chenille | |
|---|---|---|
| Price per patch (25 pcs) | $2.65 | $2.90 |
| Total for 20–25 players | $66.25 | $72.50 |
| Turnaround | 10–14 days | 12–16 days |
| Look | Clean, durable, professional | Bold, textured, classic varsity |
Round up to a full 25-piece order even for a 20-player roster — you're paying for the tier either way, and the extra 5 patches cover a new player joining or a lost/damaged patch without a second minimum-charge order later. Backing is worth deciding early too: sew-on is standard for jacket patches since it's the most durable option and jackets aren't usually swapping patches on and off the way tactical gear might — see our backing comparison if you want the full picture.
