Apollo 13 Retro Orbit V1 Design Details
This exclusive design is expertly stitched on a deep Navy garment, providing the perfect dark canvas for the celestial color palette. The 15cm x 15cm embroidery features a sleek silver spacecraft outline orbiting a textured, cratered Moon surface. We use five distinct thread colors, including #FFFFFF White, #C0C0C0 Silver, #FFCC00 Retro Gold, #E0E0E0 Moon Grey, and #FF4500 Reentry Orange. The use of stark line-art rather than heavy fills ensures the garment remains soft and wearable while mimicking the look of a premium vintage patch.
