Biker Back Patches

Patch collections and trading are widely popular among law enforcement, military, Police, Fire/EMS and Scout groups. There are several trading web sites used to match those seeking certain custom patches with those that have these embroidered patches in their collection. Forums even exist with people posting ads about unique patches they are hoping to purchase. It’s hard to say how patch trading got its start, but many believe it was from the Boy Scouts of America.

Scouts from around the world would meet up to form large gatherings. As they began to share stories and develop friendships, it became natural to want to hold on to that relationship after they returned home. Patch trading began to serve as a token of remembrance for such gatherings and friendships.  

As patch trading began to evolve it became a larger part of the national gatherings among Scouts. To this day, patch trading continues to take place and has spread to several other distinguished groups where higher honors and ranks are often represented by wearing a patch on one’s uniform. There are many patch traders out there looking for custom patches from a particular area of service or location.  From Police patches and custom military patches, to Motorcycle and Biker Back Patches, the numbers of patches one can trade are increasing every day.

We provide custom embroidered patches for such groups with a variety of options. Visit our custom embroidered patch web page for more information on custom patches for your group or organization.
