Protect the crest
Provide authorized artwork, approved colors, any wording, and the minimum readable size. Mark elements that cannot change. For a complex seal, test a simplified small-size version rather than shrinking every detail until it blurs.
Badge program planning
Badges for School and Team Apparel
Plan school and team badges around authorized artwork, uniform placement, edge choice, wash context, and replenishment records.
Buyer perspective
A badge carries identity on garments that may be worn and washed repeatedly. The buying brief should protect the approved crest while accounting for garment types, placement, and who attaches it. The pictured outdoor badge is a construction reference, not a school or team insignia.
Approval gate
Crest approval across the uniform range
The same badge may appear on garments with very different surfaces and care routines.
Rights and artwork
Confirm authorized crest use, wording, colors and the smallest acceptable reproduction.
Placement family
Approve the badge location on each uniform type, including pocket and seam clearance.
Attached samples
Keep a sample of each distinct garment-and-badge pairing with application and care observations.
A school crest revision or a new uniform fabric should trigger review before a reorder.
What to decide
Build a brief that can be tested
Match each uniform
List shirts, blazers, jackets, bags, or practice wear separately. Measure placement against pockets, seams, and panels on actual samples. Confirm whether each item needs a sew-on piece, another attachment, or a finished decorated garment.
Plan ongoing supply
Keep the approved sample, artwork revision, garment placement, and badge dimensions together. Ask for packaging and labeling that separate schools, teams, colorways, and age groups. Recheck the sample when the blank or crest changes.
