Unit Insignia on Coins and Custom Patches

For groups ordering custom products in the Norfolk and Virginia Beach market, custom patches and challenge coins give the group physical reminders of its identity and experiences. A challenge coin provides room on both sides for the artwork, insignia, call signs, dates, locations and mottos that matter to the group. For patches, the artwork can be adapted to embroidered, woven, PVC, sublimated or leatherette construction. The finished pieces can be individual orders or part of an apparel package.
MILITARY & UNIT PROJECT IDEAS

Different Occasions Call for Different Custom Products

Military and unit orders can be built around a deployment, event, milestone, morale project, reunion or everyday unit identity. Choose an occasion to see apparel, coins, patches and other products that can be combined around the project.

Deployments

Build the Project Around the Deployment

Deployment orders can combine apparel and keepsakes around the unit, location, dates, mission or shared experience. Some projects are meant to be worn during the deployment, while others are designed as something people keep afterward.

Deployment T-Shirts Screen printed or DTF shirts built around the deployment artwork.
Hoodies & Sweatshirts Great for cooler locations, travel and off-duty unit apparel.
Challenge Coins Include dates, locations, mottos and unit-specific details.
Custom Patches Embroidered, woven, PVC, sublimated or leatherette options.
Embroidered Hats Unit logos, deployment artwork or smaller identity marks.
Build a Full Deployment Set Combine shirts, hats, coins and patches around one shared design theme.
Change of Command

Create Something That Marks the Transition

Change-of-command projects can recognize outgoing leadership, welcome incoming leadership or commemorate the event itself. The design can be formal and traditional or built around the specific personality of the unit.

Commemorative Coins A lasting piece tied directly to the command transition.
Event Shirts Custom apparel for the command, staff or event participants.
Embroidered Polos A cleaner option for leadership, staff and event support.
Custom Patches Create an event-specific or command-specific patch.
Presentation Items Custom pieces designed to accompany recognition or ceremony.
Make It Specific Names, command dates, mottos and unit details can make the project feel personal.
Morale Projects

Not Every Unit Design Has to Be Formal

Morale projects can be funny, aggressive, traditional, inside-joke driven or completely unique to the people in the group. These are often the projects where unit personality comes through the most.

Morale T-Shirts Custom artwork built around unit humor, identity or shared experiences.
DTF Shirts Great for detailed artwork, smaller runs or multiple designs.
Morale Patches Create embroidered, PVC or other patch styles around the design.
Challenge Coins Turn the joke, mascot, call sign or story into something collectible.
Custom Hats Embroidered logos, symbols, text or patch hats.
Have a Weird Idea? Send the sketch, joke, phrase or rough concept and build the project from there.
Retirement & Recognition

Make the Project About the Person Being Recognized

Retirement and recognition orders can reflect the person's career, command, unit history, rank, dates of service and the people they served with. These projects work best when the details are specific to the individual.

Retirement Challenge Coins Names, rank, years of service and career details can be built into the design.
Recognition Shirts Custom shirts for the event, crew or people attending the celebration.
Embroidered Apparel Polos, jackets or hats for a more polished presentation.
Custom Patches Create a patch around the person's career or unit identity.
Presentation Sets Combine multiple custom items into a larger recognition project.
Make It Personal Use the details that make the piece specific to that person's service.
Reunions & Anniversaries

Bring the Group Back Together Around Something Recognizable

Reunions and anniversaries are a chance to bring old unit artwork, dates, locations and shared history back into a new project. Apparel and commemorative pieces can give everyone something connected to the occasion.

Reunion T-Shirts Custom shirts featuring the unit, dates and reunion artwork.
Anniversary Coins Mark the year, event or milestone with a collectible piece.
Custom Patches Create reunion or anniversary-specific patch artwork.
Embroidered Hats A practical piece attendees can continue wearing afterward.
Hoodies & Outerwear Another option for larger events or cooler-weather reunions.
Use the History Old insignia, deployment locations, dates and unit traditions can become part of the design.
Recruiting & Outreach

Products That Help the Unit Show Up Consistently

Recruiting, public events and outreach projects often need more than one type of branded item. Apparel can identify staff while smaller promotional products give visitors something they can take with them.

Staff T-Shirts Easy-to-identify apparel for recruiters and event teams.
Embroidered Polos A professional option for recruiting and public-facing staff.
Custom Hats Branded headwear for staff or event distribution.
Promotional Products Branded items for recruiting events, outreach and public programs.
Challenge Coins Create a more substantial piece for special visitors or programs.
Build an Event Package Combine staff apparel, hats and giveaways under one consistent design.
Teams & Departments

Give Smaller Groups Their Own Identity

A larger command can contain smaller crews, shops, departments and specialty teams that want something specific to their own group. DTF, embroidery, patches and coins provide flexibility when those projects do not require a large identical run.

Department Shirts Create artwork specific to a shop, crew or department.
DTF Apparel Useful for smaller quantities or designs that vary between groups.
Team Patches Build a patch around the identity of the smaller group.
Team Challenge Coins Create something specific to the crew, shop or specialty team.
Embroidered Hats Smaller logos, lettering and team identities work well on headwear.
Different Groups, Related Look Keep the broader unit identity while giving each team its own version.
Unit Merch & Stores

Create More Than One Way to Represent the Unit

Unit merchandise can extend beyond one shirt design. A broader mix of apparel, hats, patches and coins gives members, families and supporters different ways to buy or wear something connected to the group.

Printed T-Shirts Screen printed or DTF designs for unit merchandise.
Hoodies & Sweatshirts Add higher-value apparel to the available product mix.
Embroidered Hats Create headwear around unit insignia or smaller branding.
Custom Patches Offer patches as standalone items or alongside apparel.
Challenge Coins Add a collectible product tied directly to the unit.
Build a Product Line Use related artwork across several products instead of relying on one item.

Printed Shirts and Embroidered Garment Options

The quantity and consistency of a unit shirt design help determine when screen printing makes sense. For a smaller run, detailed color graphics or artwork that changes from garment to garment, DTF may be a better fit. Embroidery adds a stitched option for hats, polos, jackets and other apparel. Having all three methods available lets Anchor Apparel Company choose around the order's needs. For unit orders involving Norfolk and Virginia Beach, the garment selection, artwork and quantity guide that choice.
