Hooker Headers Logo Patch | Official Apparel
We designed this embroidered patch for enthusiasts who want to rep authentic Hooker Headers branding wherever they go. The classic orange and black logo stands out on any surface — from work jackets and tool bags to backpacks and racing suits.
Our patch features heavy-duty twill backing with iron-on adhesive for quick application, plus reinforced stitching around the perimeter to prevent fraying even after years of wear. Whether you’re building in the garage or heading to the track, this patch becomes part of your daily uniform.
Patch specifications
Construction & durability
We build every Hooker Headers patch on commercial-grade polyester twill that resists fading, tearing, and moisture damage. The embroidery thread is 100% rayon for vivid color saturation — the orange pops against black backing even in low light. Heat-set backing adhesive bonds permanently to cotton, denim, canvas, and synthetic blends when applied at 150°C for 15 seconds.
The merrowed edge stitching wraps the entire perimeter in tight overlocking thread, creating a clean border that won’t unravel or curl after repeated washing. Collectors appreciate the same stitching technique used on vintage racing patches from the 1970s — a nod to Hooker’s heritage in performance exhaust. Many fans attach our patches to Dickies work jackets, Carhartt beanies, and canvas tool bags that see daily shop abuse.
Application instructions
Position the patch on clean, dry fabric with the logo facing up. Set your iron to the cotton setting (no steam) and press firmly for 15 seconds, applying even pressure across the entire patch surface. Allow the fabric to cool for one minute before handling.
For permanent hold on nylon or ripstop fabrics where iron-on adhesive may not bond fully, we recommend adding a few hand stitches around the perimeter after heat application. Use matching black thread through the merrowed edge for invisible reinforcement. The patch tolerates machine washing on gentle cycles up to 40°C — turn garments inside out to protect the embroidery from abrasion.
Sizing & placement
At 3.5 inches in diameter, this circular patch fits standard jacket chest pockets, the front panel of baseball caps, and the flap of work coveralls. The size strikes a balance between visibility and subtlety — large enough to read from across the garage, compact enough for smaller gear.
Popular placement spots
Most customers iron the Hooker Headers patch onto the left chest of denim or canvas work jackets, mirroring the classic name-tag position. Others center it on the back panel of trucker hats or stitch it to the front pouch of tool bags. Racing crew members often apply multiples to team uniforms, creating coordinated pit-lane looks during track days.

Hooker Headers Patch Questions
The iron-on adhesive bonds best to woven fabrics like cotton, denim, and canvas. For leather, suede, or vinyl surfaces, we recommend hand-sewing the patch using the merrowed edge as a stitching guide. Use a leather needle and waxed thread for secure attachment without damaging the material.
Yes, the 3.5-inch diameter fits the front panel of most trucker hats and snapbacks. For knit beanies, hand-sew the patch rather than using heat — iron contact can melt or distort acrylic and wool fibers. Position the patch on the cuff fold for a classic look.
Heat the patch with a household iron on cotton setting for 10 seconds to soften the adhesive, then gently peel from one edge while the fabric is still warm. Residual adhesive can be removed with rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball. Note that the adhesive may lose some bonding strength after removal and repositioning.
The polyester twill and rayon embroidery resist moisture and won’t bleed colors when wet. However, prolonged submersion or heavy rain may eventually weaken the iron-on adhesive. For outdoor gear exposed to frequent wet conditions, add perimeter stitching for permanent hold.
The embroidered patch is designed for fabric surfaces like jackets, hats, and bags, with heat-activated adhesive and optional sewing. The vinyl sticker adheres to hard surfaces like toolboxes, helmets, and vehicle windows using permanent outdoor-rated adhesive. Both feature the same Hooker Headers logo in orange and black.

The rayon embroidery thread is colorfast and rated for commercial laundering cycles. Washing on gentle or delicate settings in cold to warm water will preserve vibrancy for years. Avoid chlorine bleach and high-heat drying, which can accelerate fading on any textile product.
