Professionally crafted hard and soft enamel pins with polished metal finishes. Create collectible, wearable art that represents your brand, cause, or creativity.
Enamel pins have evolved from functional military insignia into a thriving collector culture. From brand merchandise to artist releases, event commemoratives to political campaigns, enamel pins are one of the most popular custom accessories available today.
At HubPatches, we produce both hard enamel and soft enamel pins using premium zinc alloy metal with electroplated finishes. Every pin starts as your artwork, which our designers refine into a pin-ready die line, then produce a custom metal die/mold that shapes each pin with precise detail.
Hard enamel pins are filled with colored enamel, baked at high temperature, then polished smooth. The result is a jewellery-grade pin with a glassy, flush surface — smooth to the touch with crisp, raised metal outlines separating each color section. They’re more expensive to produce but feel premium and last indefinitely.
Soft enamel pins have raised metal outlines with recessed color areas — you can feel the texture when you run your finger across them. They’re more affordable, available in a wider range of colors including glitter and translucent options, and are the most popular choice for artist pins, band merchandise, and promotional items.
