In the early 19th century, the British military began marking soldiers' uniforms with uniform patches that served to identify the unit. In the following years, patches denoting rank or troop affiliation became an important part of the military uniforms of all major armies of the world. Shortly after the end of World War II, their production was significantly increased, and thanks to the advent of new technologies and strong synthetic materials, military patches began to be characterised by high durability and quality workmanship. They were primarily used to indicate a soldier's rank, type of army or glorify his achievements that he made during his military career. After many years, military patches became so popular that they began to be worn by civilians. Patches are now being used not only by people associated with the military, but also by fans of music bands or motorcycle clubs.
The MILITARY.EU store offers a wide selection of clothing patches that depict the markings of special units, indicate blood type, as well as many others including humorous models. They can be attached to uniforms, backpacks, caps and other items of equipment. Some of them are distinguished by innovative solutions such as a fluorescent coating that glows in the dark. We also offer models made with a three-dimensional technique, which makes tactical patches more legible. Military patches are made of strong materials, such as Cordura (a nylon-based fabric known for its durability). This material is resistant to abrasion and tears, so it performs well in harsh conditions. Some military patches are made with Laser Cut technology, which prevents the edges of the materials from fraying. Military patches can depict animal images, slogans, weapon models and skulls. Nowadays, most patches are manufactured with Velcro, which allows them to be attached to Velcro panels.
At MILITARY.EU, you will find patches from many manufacturers, such as 8Fields, Direct Action, Combat-ID, or Tigerwood. With their help, you will emphasise your individuality, views or membership in a particular group.
