Customizable
EcoStiks patches are totally customizable in shape and printed design. We offer design templates and guidelines for you to create your own custom EcoStiks patch. We laser cut each EcoStiks patch, so you can customize the shape, too.
Add an image, a logo, a catchy phrase, or a QR code for your website. EcoStiks patches have been used for events, businesses, volunteer organizations, and as pure art!
We also offer blank EcoStiks patches so you can draw on your own design.
Fabric
EcoStiks patches are made from Repreve, the world’s leading brand of recycled performance fiber. Repreve fabric is upcycled from single-use plastic bottles, eliminating waste that would otherwise end up in landfills.
Our values of reducing single-use plastic and reusing whenever possible are woven into our EcoStiks patches. We love to use EcoStiks patches on clothing, tents, and bags. The soft, flexible texture is perfect for mending gear to extend its life.
Durable
EcoStiks patches were originally designed for wetsuits, but as we discovered, they stick on EVERYTHING except wetsuits! This discovery helped us find the huge list of other ways to use EcoStiks.
-
Cups, water bottles, mugs - they're dishwasher safe!
-
Clothes, tote bags, backpacks, boots
-
Speakers, laptops, phone cases
-
Tents, coolers, surf boards, kayaks, SUPs
-
Cars, boats, bikes, skateboards
They are waterproof, machine washable, dishwasher safe, sun-resistant and safe for snow and water gear.
By mending holes and dings with EcoStiks patches, you extend the life of your gear and keep it out of the landfill.
Easy to Use
EcoStiks patches couldn't be easier to use - just peel and stick, no ironing needed!
Unlike traditional patches, EcoStiks patches stay on without any heat transfer required. Once applied, EcoStiks patches will stay put in the washing machine, dishwasher, and even in the sun, snow, and ocean!
We love seeing how our customers use EcoStiks patches. Tag us on Instagram @EcoStiks to show us how you stik it.

Generally, we guarantee print between 5-7 business days after a proof is approved. We are limited by our unique small batch production method and increased demand for our EcoStiks™. However, we can “rush” an order, but there is an extra cost associated with expedited orders, depending on the quantity, project details and inventory.
How does shipping work around business days and holidays?
Our shipments go out Monday through Friday in line with our production schedule and hours, excluding federal holidays within the United States.
