Clawgear Switzerland Tab Patch

A tab, not an emblem. The format is elongated and narrow: it fits where a square patch doesn't - above a pocket, along a horizontal Velcro strip, on a flap.

Warning: five Swiss references

They look very similar and only differ in the spelling of the word and the size:

Switzerland Tab (this one) - €5.90 - large format, word in English.
Suisse Tab - €5.90 - large format, word in French.
Switzerland Small Tab - €4.90 - small format, word in English.
Suisse Small Tab - €4.90 - small format, word in French.
Switzerland Flag Patch - €6.90 - the flag, not a band.

First choose the spelling, then the size. The price only depends on the size.

The tab format has its own logic

It does not seek to represent but to name. A band is read at a glance, from a distance, without the eye having to interpret a pattern. This is why it is found on the most visible parts of the equipment.

Legibility comes from the weave

On such a narrow format, each character has little height. Embroidery thickens the lines and closes the letters; high-resolution weaving preserves their design.

Measure before choosing

A tab longer than its Velcro strip will stick out and tear off at the first snag; shorter, it leaves a visible gap.

Colors

Three versions: Multicolor, Desert and RAL7013.
