embroidered scouting badges

Custom embroidered scout badges are a classic choice for uniforms and vests. The embroidery creates a recognizable scouting look with a bold, 3D/embossed appearance. Ideal for group emblems, region badges, and badges with distinct shapes.

• Classic scouting look with relief/3D
• Robust and durable for intensive use
• Digital proof for checking before production
• Attachment as desired : sew-on, velcro, iron-on

When do you choose embroidered?

• You want a traditional badge with a clear structure
• Your logo consists of clear shapes and not too many micro details
• The badge is worn intensively on uniform, blouse or vest

Embroidered vs. woven (quick selection guide)

• Woven: Best choice for small text and extra fine details

Do you have a lot of small text or thin lines? Then we often recommend woven or full color. Not sure? Send us your design—we'll recommend the best option.
