Stockyards Leatherette Patches: Rugged Pattern Style for Custom Hats

Stockyards leatherette patches bring a distinctive UV-printed pattern to custom hats, giving designs more character than a plain solid-color patch. Its Heritage styling creates a traditional, rugged feel that works well when Print Phase customers want extra visual interest around an engraved logo.

What Makes Stockyards Leatherette Patches Stand Out?

Unlike a basic two-tone solid, Stockyards is sold as a UV-printed pattern, so the printed surface itself provides much of its visual character. LoneStar does not state a separate engraved underlayer color for Stockyards, so it is more accurate to describe the result as engraved artwork contrasting with the printed pattern rather than claiming a specific color core. Neutral or earthy hat and thread colors can help keep the pattern as the focal point.

The Material Behind the Color

These patches are cut from Premium Leatherette® supplied by LoneStar Adhesive. The manufacturer describes the material as thicker and more reliable than typical leatherette and developed specifically to be laser-friendly. The Heritage Stockyards sheets use flexible UV-printed ink over the Premium Leatherette®, making them a top-tier choice for detailed custom patch work.

Why the Heritage Collection?

Stockyards belongs to the Heritage Collection and uses a flexible UV-printed patterned surface designed to bring a touch of tradition to the material. It is made for laser work and comes backed with American-made Durra-Bull™ thermal-activated adhesive, allowing engraved and cut patches to be heat applied to suitable products.

Stockyards Leatherette at a Glance

The Stockyards sheets measure 12 × 24 inches, while the Premium Leatherette® itself is approximately 0.059" / 1.5mm thick.

Where Stockyards Patches Work Best?

Custom Stockyards patches can work especially well for western-inspired brands, ranch and outdoor themes, workwear-style merchandise, event hats, or businesses aiming for a rugged and traditional visual direction. Because the UV-printed surface already adds detail, simpler engraved logos and clean shapes can help maintain clear readability.

Conclusion

Stockyards combines a distinctive Heritage pattern with thicker, laser-friendly Premium Leatherette® and Durra-Bull™ heat-activated backing. For Print Phase designs that need more visual personality than a plain solid patch, LoneStar Adhesive's Premium Leatherette provides a dependable material foundation.
