Spur Name Tapes
would like to introduce possibly the next generation embroidered name
tapes. At the beginning of 2001, the U.S. NAVY started the
"Fabric Strip" name tapes. Instead of the 1 inch tape,
they went with a 1 1/4 inch tape. The tapes are strips of olive drab
65/35 polyester/cotton material folded and fused together. The
material is the exact same material that is used in the production of
collar and breast insignias. The U.S. NAVY put the tapes through
vigorous testing before being approved. With that in mind, we
thought the tapes looked so good that we decided to make the fabric strips
in the 1 inch tape so it can be used by other branches of the armed
forces.
We
constantly have people looking for "premium tapes" and we do
offer the nylon tapes.
The fabric strip tapes are another option for premium tapes enthusiast and
well worth looking into.
What
we like about Fabric Strip Tapes:
They sew better
than webbed tape.
They look better
than webbed tape.
They are always
the same color.
They are the same
material as the cloth insignias.
The uniforms look
more "uniform" with the using the same material for both the
name tapes and insignias.
Over time, they
maintain the same appearance as the uniform.
The tape is
always exactly 1 inch.
Fabric strips are
easier for a seamstress to sew on.
What
we DON'T like about Fabric Strip Tapes:
More involved
process of making the tape.
Not enough people
know about them.
You
be the judge:
Fabric
strip tape
Webbed
tape
Over
the years, we have seen a lot of different name tapes and these are some
of the best we've ever seen!
