About World Patches
Quality travel patches designed for travelers, explorers, and adventurers.
Founded by Christopher Lyon
I'm a traveler and product designer who launched World Patches to create meaningful souvenirs that celebrate the destinations we explore. Each patch is designed with care and built to last, so your travel memories can accompany you for years to come.
World Patches was created with a focus on high-quality, collectible travel patches built to last.
Who We Are
World Patches is a small, independent brand created for travelers who want to collect meaningful souvenirs from their adventures. We design and produce quality patches that celebrate destinations around the world, from iconic landmarks to natural wonders.
Why We Exist
Travel patches are more than just souvenirs, they're memories you can wear. Whether you're ironing them onto your backpack, sewing them onto your jacket, or collecting them in a display, each patch tells a story of where you've been and the adventures you've had.
We believe in creating patches that are both beautiful and durable, so your travel memories can last for years to come.
Our Patches
All our patches are custom-designed and produced using high-quality materials and dye-sublimation printing technology. Each patch features:
- Dye-sublimation printing: Vibrant, long-lasting colors that are heat-sealed into the fabric for weather and fade resistance
- High-quality spun polyester: Durable material that stands up to travel and wear
- Sewn borders: Overlocked edges that prevent fraying and add durability
- Iron-on and sew-on options: Choose the attachment method that works best for you
Quality Standards
Our patches are manufactured by Prodigi, a trusted print-on-demand partner. Every patch is:
- Heat-sealed to protect against cracking, peeling, and fading
- Weather-resistant and fade-resistant
- Designed for durability and long-lasting color
- Available in circular shape (8x8cm)

We're looking for talented artists and designers who can create premium embroidered patch designs with 3D stitching. As part of our plan to elevate World Patches from printed patches to even more premium embroidered options, we're building a creator program.
If you have experience designing premium embroidered assets with 3D stitching and are interested in collaborating, we'd love to hear from you. Creators will receive a share of the profit for their patch designs.
