    Looking for recommendations for someone who prints leather patches (to be sewn onto racesuit). Looking for a small quantity, about 4.

    I've previously used GPleatherworks, but I'm not sure if he's still in business (Facebook posts and website are all old, and haven't gotten a response yet).

    Thanks

    Check out Todd McNabney at Heroic. Heroicracing.com. Look under the accessories tab.

    GPLeatherworks is a small operation and just finished a house remodel and taking care of a newborn! If you reach out he'll I'm sure he'll respond and get you what you need.

    Yes I use GP leatherworks. He did an order for me not too long ago. Also, no need to sew patches these days. I use E6000 from Amazon. I used to pay a leathers guy to do it, then he was so busy and just told me what he uses. Now I do it myself. The E6000 works amazing. Even patches kind of stay on in crash direct hit.

    not gonna be cheap or easy to just get a few i would bet. had some printed on vinyl patches by a gal that did graphics for bikes, those didn't last. had Todd at Heroic do some nice leather-like" ones, those were VERY nice, had quite a few done of 4 or 5 different ones, but they were NOT cheap.

    Kaleb DeKeyrel kd51.co for the win.

    Thanks for the info. Kaleb was super quick to respond, great price, and should have a short turnaround time. I know the other guys do good work as well, I just didn't get any responses from them and the clock is ticking fornwhen i need them by.

    On a side note, custom printed leather patches are pretty reasonable. I've supplied the artwork and pay about $10 or so for a 1.75"x3.5". In the past a larger, chest size (maybe 6x9") was about $30.
