Leather patch help

Ok so I never tried doing leather patches on hats before. I bought these premade ones from Amazon. I was wondering, do I just need to use a hat press or iron on it as is or does it need some special backing other than what is on it? Any tips and possibly a recommendation for heat press.

Here’s what they look like front and back

It definitely depends on the listing. That looks like an iron on, but it could just be their protective film. I’m always a proponent for sewing them on, but there’s definitely an added level of difficulty with that - especially if you’re doing anything like bulk.

Love the image :slight_smile:

What do the instructions say?

Didn’t see any. Was just a large box but I believe it said it was an iron on.

if it’s iron on, HTVRONT has some pretty cool looking hat presses. (And some different bundles, too.)
