I needed patches for an event and was worried about the timeline. Not only did they arrive on time, but the quality was outstanding. Very impressed!

Great Value

Verified PurchaseBy Michael T. on 2023-03-10

Good quality patches at a reasonable price. The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that one of the colors was slightly different than what I expected, but still looked good.
