Let’s start customizing garments! We’ll go for any garment; if you know how to do it on clothes, then you’ll know how to do it on pants, jackets, cloaks, etc etc etc. What you’ll need is a few things:

  • The t-shirt, jacket, long sleeve, or any garment of your desire.
  • Stick on patches 
  • Glue gun (and glue sticks)
  • Sew and threads (optional second choice if you don’t have a glue gun)

Now, the most important thing to know is that the material your garment is made out of can be affected depending on the type of patch you use. Stick on patches are absolutely fine in almost all materials. But, keep in mind that stick on patches isn't permanent and they can lose their stickiness; this is where the glue gun comes in.
