Clawgear Austria Emblem Flag Patch

With the emblem, not just the stripes. This is what separates this patch from the Austria Flag Patch sold at the same price: the plain flag on one side, the emblazoned flag on the other.

Plain flag or emblazoned flag

A flag with only stripes is a simple and legible marker from a distance. Adding the emblem makes it more specific - and more demanding to manufacture, as it concentrates detail in the center of a reduced surface.

Austria Flag Patch - €6.90 - without emblem, four colors including Black.
Austria Emblem Flag Patch (this one) - €6.90 - with emblem, two colors.

Only two treatments

This patch only comes in Desert and RAL7013. No multi-color version, no black: the range clearly positions it for use on field attire, not for display in colors.

The detail comes through thanks to weaving

An emblem reduced to a few square centimeters concentrates fine lines. Embroidery closes them into blocks as soon as they fall below a certain size; high-resolution weaving keeps them distinct, even when treated in monochrome.

There is also an infrared version

The Dual IR Patch Austria, at €15.90, is readable with the naked eye and under night vision. A different use, a different price.

Velcro does not damage underlayers

The hook of this series only adheres to female Velcro surfaces: neither knitted meshes nor sewing threads are attacked.
