What is a hook fastener or hook and loop?

A hook fastener or hook and loop is the fastening system which uses two sides of material. The hook portion is the rough and scratchy like side and the loop is the softer fuzzier side. When placing the two sections together, the hook and the loop fabric attach to each other creating a bond, keeping the name tape in place during any activity. But not so strong that the name tape (or any other patch) cannot be removed as needed.

Why does my OCP name tape look faded?

In Nov of 2020 the Army switched to using the 3 color OCP Pattern as this is the current standard it is our default OCP pattern. While both 3 and 7 color are authorized for wear by the Army, Air Force, and Space Force; the 7 color has been mostly phased out and not readily available.

Online orders typically take 24-48 hour to make then it would depend on the type of shipping chosen. In store orders typically take 24 hours depending on current work load of sewing department.

"Hook fastener" is a type of closure system that uses two opposing strips, one with tiny hooks and the other with soft loops. When pressed together, the hooks and loops interlock, providing a secure and reusable hold.

$4.95 For a sew-on plus shipping or $6.95 for a nametape with the hook fastener added.

Of course! All our nametape and thread colors are available to everyone.

We can do lowercase letters if specifically asked, though lowercase letters with tails hanging down will have to be adjusted and may look different. The Letters P, Q and G will decrease the height of the letters if left lower case. If order is in all caps, and still contains the letter Q, the name will be slightly smaller in height.

You can get a name tape with up to 20 letters, with keeping in mind that the more letters you have the skinnier and closer together the letters will be.

Name Tapes are going to be 5 and ¼ inches long by 1 inch high. The only colors that vary are New and Old Navy Digital, and Desert Sand which are 1 ¼ inches tall. We can make the name tape smaller, taking into account that the shorter the nametape is, the more squeezed the letters become.

Unfortunately we cannot take orders over the phone, but you can choose the “in store pick up” option online.
