How to design a military badge that embroiders cleanly

A good embroidered badge starts with clear shapes and enough contrast. Keep key elements bold, avoid tiny details, and prioritize readability at real patch size.

Keep line weight consistent

Use lines thick enough for stitching. If details are too thin, embroidery can merge or disappear.

Limit micro-details

Small text and tiny icons often lose precision. Simplify decorative elements before production.

Choose high-contrast colors

Strong contrast improves readability in field conditions and reduces visual noise.
