What is the Red Laserable Leatherette Rectangle Patch with Kota Pro Adhesive, Style PTH281?
This is a patch in leatherette. Straightforward to decorate, and durable enough that the decoration outlasts the occasion. It measures 3 1/2" (L) x 2 1/2" (H) x 1/16" thick. This is the red colorway.
Leatherette solves the two problems real leather has as a promotional substrate: it is consistent from unit to unit, so a hundred pieces look like a hundred of the same piece, and it does not absorb moisture, stain, or fray at cut edges..
Patches let one apparel blank serve many teams, departments or locations. This is one of the highest-contrast decoration surfaces in the industry. The laser removes the top layer and reveals the core color underneath, so the logo appears as a crisp, permanent, two-tone mark with no ink and nothing to wear off.
This is table-stock: priced to be handed out freely. The metric that matters is how many you can put into circulation, not what each one felt like to give. Concretely: $3.20 each at 1-11, $1.98 at 500+.

Decoration options
The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 2.1 in x 1.25 in.
Laser Engraving
A focused laser removes the surface layer to expose the substrate beneath. A permanent, high-contrast, single-color mark with no ink involved.
Best for
Logos, names, dates and fine text. The default choice when the mark has to outlive the campaign.
Color
Single color: the natural color of the material under the surface.
Debossing
A heated die presses the artwork into the material. A subtle, tactile, recessed impression in the surface color.
Best for
Leather and leatherette gifts where understatement is the point.
Color
Blind (no color) or foil-filled.
UV Printing
UV-cured ink is jetted directly onto the product and cured instantly under ultraviolet light. Full-color, photographic-quality artwork with hard edges and no dot gain.
Best for
Multi-color logos, gradients, photographs and exact brand-color matching.
Color
Full color, including white ink on dark substrates.
Artwork requirements
- Send vector if you have it. A .ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg scales to any imprint without softening.
- Supply Pantone (PMS) references for any color that has to match exactly.
- Vector files are the safe option. They hold their edges whether the mark runs at an inch or a foot.
- A digital proof comes back to you first, every time. Production starts on your written approval and not before.
- We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.
- Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
Production schedule
| Proof to you | Within one business day of usable artwork arriving |
|---|---|
| Production, standard | 3 to 5 business days, counted from your approval |
| Production, rush | quoted per job, confirmed in writing before you pay |
| Transit by ground | 1 to 5 business days, by distance from the shipping point |
Common uses
Uniform programsWorks well for uniform programs, where the patch format does what a printed handout cannot.
Team and club identityA natural fit for team and club identity, which is one of the settings this patch was specified for.
Apparel customisationApparel customisation is where this earns its cost, and where buyers re-order it.
Client thank-you programsSent after a renewal, a referral or a project close, when the relationship is warm and the gesture will land.
Renewal and retention giftsTimed to the contract date rather than the calendar, which is when the recipient is actually paying attention.
Recruiting and onboardingIncluded in offer packs and first-day kits, where the object is doing culture work from the very first hour.
Customer loyalty tiersA physical marker of status that an account dashboard cannot replicate.
Executive and board giftingShort lists, individual personalization, and a piece that survives scrutiny.
Where this works best
The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.
1
Sports Leagues, Tournaments & Clubs
Sport needs volume, deadlines and a clear hierarchy of awards. Participation medals for the field, distinct pieces for placegetters, and something with real presence for the overall champion. Production timing is usually the binding constraint, so lock artwork well before the event rather than after the results are known. This is one of the highest-contrast decoration surfaces in the industry. The laser removes the top layer and reveals the core color underneath, so the logo appears as a crisp, permanent, two-tone mark with no ink and nothing to wear off. At $3.20 before breaks it is cheap enough to hand out without counting.
2
Franchise & Multi-Location Brands
The hard problem in multi-location branding is consistency, not creativity. Local operators will source their own if the approved path is slower or costlier than the alternative. The way to hold brand consistency is to make the compliant option the easy one, with stocked items and fixed pricing. The patch format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. The unit cost here is low enough that reach matters more than restraint.
3
Construction, Trades & Field Services
On a job site, an item survives or it disappears. The item has to survive a truck bed in July and a tailgate in January. Thermal performance and impact resistance are the specification; everything else in this segment is decoration on top of that. Order deep. At this price the waste of a few extra is cheaper than running short.
4
Government, Military & First Responders
This segment is precise about protocol and unforgiving about quality. Challenge coins, unit recognition, retirement and commendation pieces all carry established conventions. Sourcing compliance and documented lead times usually matter as much as the item itself. Leatherette solves the two problems real leather has as a promotional substrate: it is consistent from unit to unit, so a hundred pieces look like a hundred of the same piece, and it does not absorb moisture, stain, or fray at cut edges.. Volume is the point at $3.20; nobody is auditing this line item.

What do buyers ask about PTH281?

Most orders land near 48-95, which prices at $2.56 a piece. The published ladder on PTH281 runs from $3.20 a piece at 1-11 down to $1.98 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout.
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes, provided the artwork stays the same across the run. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The published ladder on PTH281 runs from $3.20 a piece at 1-11 down to $1.98 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
What happens if something arrives damaged?
We replace damaged pieces. Send a photograph and the item number within 10 days of delivery and we handle the carrier claim ourselves. If the box arrives visibly damaged, write that on the freight bill before signing. The replacement runs from the artwork you already approved, so it matches the rest of the order.
What artwork do you need from me?
Send vector if it exists, raster at 300 dpi if it does not, and whatever you have if neither. The personalization area on PTH281 is 2.1 in x 1.25 in, and we redraw or re-proportion anything that will not survive it. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing.
Can I see a proof before you produce the order?
Yes, and nothing runs until you have signed it off. Read it properly rather than skimming, because the approved proof is the specification we produce against. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.
Is there a setup charge?
There is no setup charge, ever. Art preparation, machine setup and the proof are part of the price on this page. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.

What PTH281 costs at each quantity
The piece, the engraving and the freight, worked out at every break on this item's own ladder. Most suppliers publish the piece price and leave you to find out the rest at checkout.
| Quantity | Piece | Engraving | All-in each | Order total | Ground freight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 48 | $2.56 | $2.50 | $5.06 | $242.88 | Priced by weight |
| 96 | $2.37 | $2.25 | $4.62 | $443.52 | Free |
| 250 | $2.18 | $2.00 | $4.18 | $1,045.00 | Free |
| 500 | $1.98 | $1.75 | $3.73 | $1,865.00 | Free |
- Ground freight is free from 96 pieces, which is where this order passes $250.00 of merchandise.
- The personalization area is 2.1 in by 1.25 in. Engraving is charged on the share your artwork actually covers, so a smaller logo costs less. Place yours on the product above and the price updates as you size it.
- At 50 pieces this costs less than 20% of the 435 other priced items in Apparel & Headwear. It sits at the dearer end of that range, which is usually the material rather than the margin.
- The table starts at 48 because below that the engraving setup costs more than the goods, and we will not guess at a price there. Ask us and we will quote a smaller run from your artwork.
- Setup is free at every quantity, including 48.
