Basket Weave Leatherette Patches: Rustic Texture for Custom Hats
Basket Weave leatherette patches bring the look of a classic woven texture to custom hats without relying on a flat solid-color surface. The UV-printed pattern has a timeless, handcrafted feel that fits western, rustic, outdoor, and heritage-inspired branding particularly well.

What Makes Basket Weave Leatherette Patches Stand Out?
Basket Weave uses a classic woven pattern printed with flexible UV ink, creating a distinctive, durable finish designed for professional laser and craft projects. Because this is a printed pattern, LoneStar describes the visible basket-weave design rather than specifying a separate two-tone engraving core or underlayer color.
Neutral hats and thread colors such as black, brown, tan, cream, charcoal, or denim tones can complement the woven appearance without overpowering the pattern.
The Material Behind the Color
Print Phase Basket Weave hat patches are made from the Premium Leatherette® supplied by LoneStar Adhesive. At approximately 0.059" (1.5 mm) thick, it provides a substantial laser-friendly material for custom patch production. The Heritage Collection Basket Weave sheets combine this top-tier leatherette with a flexible UV-printed surface for dependable professional results.
Why the Heritage Collection?
The Heritage Collection is built around laser-friendly sheet materials intended for dependable professional work. Basket Weave adds a durable UV-printed finish and classic woven visual texture, while sheets are available with or without American-made Durra-Bull™ heat-activated adhesive. LoneStar also notes that UV-printed patterns may need slightly higher laser power for finer details. See more options in the Heritage Leatherette Collection.
