Decision 1 · Heritage Patch vs ê Wink

From decisions dashboard D1. The fork: is SKU-5 an archival object (patch) or a minimalist brand mark (wink)?

CANON
heritage
Option A · Heritage Patch · RECOMMENDED
Fake-archival trompe-l'œil. Bode/Kapital/Visvim register. Two execution methods live: DTF matte or woven via NY Custom Labels.
accent1
Option B · ê Wink centered
Floating ê, ~15cm. Minimalist brand mark. Too thin for the heirloom slot.

Execution method · DTF vs woven patch

Operator's highest-leverage discovery: NY Custom Labels (same vendor as the neck labels) may do woven patches. Woven reads as archival object; DTF reads as archival print.

CANON
heritage
Woven patch · register-changing
Satin-weave matched to neck-label register. Single vendor handoff. ~$25/unit at 20 units. Reads as object, not ink.
heritage
DTF matte soft-hand
Matte finish mandatory — gloss would betray the trompe-l'œil. Fallback if NY Custom Labels doesn't deliver woven.

Heritage Patch scale

Bode-adjacent intimate scale. The trompe-l'œil illusion breaks on loose placement or oversized scale.

6×4 cm · subtle
Very intimate. Reads as archival pin.
CANON
heritage
8×5 cm · CANON
Production-playbook spec. Bode-adjacent intimate scale.
heritage
10×6 cm · confident
Just below the threshold where trompe-l'œil reads as merch.
heritage
14×9 cm · statement
Scale drift — becomes streetwear-chest patch. Rejected.

Placement · the illusion's weak point

The trompe-l'œil illusion breaks on off-center or loose placement. QA tolerance is ±3mm.

CANON
heritage
Upper-chest-left · CANON
~8cm offset from center toward left chest. Bode-intimate scale.
heritage
Chest-centered · 8cm from collar
Streetwear chest-center read. Fails the register test.
heritage
Lower-chest-left
Pocket-zone. Too low; reads as novelty.
heritage
Sleeve (upper-arm)
Tour-merch register. Wrong for the SKU.
