Small Beginnings: How PatchPanel Was Born
In a modest basement apartment, a storage closet became the birthplace of Evan’s dream. Armed with nothing but determination and a few boxes of patches from other brands, he set out to build something extraordinary. From these humble beginnings, PatchPanel emerged as a pioneer in the patch industry.
A Vision from a Basement
Evan started with a cluttered closet and cardboard boxes of patches from other companies. What began as a simple reselling venture quickly transformed into a passion project that would redefine the world of morale patches, proving that big ideas can grow from the smallest spaces.
Dog Show of The Year
A mission to build a loyal fan base pushed Evan to countless events, lugging his inventory and navigating awkward interactions—including accidentally setting up at a dog show. To this day, customers from that dog show are still loyal customers to PatchPanel.
Creating Patches is sustainable
By this time we realized that relying solely on patches from other companies wasn't sustainable. With a mix of excitement and sheer terror, PatchPanel ventured into original designs. This transition was anything but smooth.
Through Trial and Error
What started as a one-man operation in a basement now supports upwards of 20 full-time employees, all working tirelessly to keep up with the amazing support the company has received.
In House + New Site
PatchPanel boasts an almost entirely in-house production process, constantly innovating and refining to ensure the highest quality patches.
