Why Order Custom Die Struck Pins?
Custom die struck pins are a great choice when you want a clean, classic metal look without too much color. The design is stamped into the metal, creating raised and recessed details that feel sharp, durable, and premium.
For businesses, die struck lapel pins work well for company logos, employee recognition, corporate events, uniforms, clubs, and brand gifts. They do not feel like cheap giveaways. They feel more like something people would actually keep.
You can choose finishes like gold, silver, black nickel, antique gold, antique silver, or antique copper. If your design has clean lines, text, initials, borders, badges, or simple shapes, custom die struck pins can make your logo look polished and professional.
Choosing the Right Custom Die Struck Pins
Quick tips to help you choose the right design, finish, size, and pin style before you order.
Best Designs for Custom Die Struck Pins
Die struck pins work best for clean, simple designs with strong metal detail.
They are not made to show off lots of colors. Instead, the design comes through the raised and recessed metal, clean lines, and the plating finish.
If your artwork is a company logo, simple text, a badge shape, a club emblem, an award mark, or something with a classic or formal look, die struck pins are usually a great choice.
But if your artwork has a lot of colors, gradients, photo details, cartoon characters, or very tiny lines, die struck may not be the best option. Without enamel colors to help separate the design, overly detailed artwork can end up looking less clear.
The Clean Metal Look: Simple, Not Plain
Some customers worry that a pin without color will look too plain.
But that is actually what makes die struck pins look good. The focus is on the metal itself.
When the design has clean lines and enough spacing, the raised and recessed areas give the pin a sharp, polished look. It will not be as bright or colorful as a soft enamel pin, but it often feels more classic, clean, and professional.
That is why this style works so well for company pins, uniform pins, award pins, membership pins, and service pins.
No color does not mean boring. It just means the design needs to work well in metal.
Choose the Right Finish and Size
For die struck pins, two things make a big difference: the finish and the size.
If you want a clean and formal look, polished gold or polished silver is a safe choice. They work well for company logos, award pins, business gifts, and formal events.
If you want something more modern with stronger contrast, black nickel is a good option.
If your design has text, borders, badge lines, or more small details, antique gold, antique silver, or antique copper may work better. The darker recessed areas help the raised metal lines stand out, so the design looks clearer and more dimensional.
For a simple logo, small icon, or initials, 0.75 inch to 1 inch is usually enough. If the design includes a logo with text, a border, or a badge shape, 1.25 inch to 1.5 inch is often a better fit.
If you want to go 1.75 inch, 2 inch, or larger, the artwork should have enough detail to fill the space. Otherwise, a large color-free pin can start to look a little empty.
Die Struck Pins vs Soft Enamel Pins
Die struck pins and soft enamel pins are both custom metal pins, but they are good for different types of artwork.
If your design is clean, formal, and mostly depends on lines, text, and metal texture, die struck pins are a good choice.
If your design has a lot of colors, a mascot, cartoon artwork, event graphics, team artwork, or anything that needs to look bright and eye-catching, soft enamel pins are usually the better option.
Not sure which one fits your artwork? Send it over and we will take a look. We will let you know which process makes the most sense, instead of pushing you into something that may not come out right.

Custom Die Struck Pins FAQ
Thinking about ordering custom die struck pins? Here are a few quick answers to help you choose the right style before getting a quote.
Are die struck pins a good choice for my logo?
Yes, especially if your logo has clean lines, text, badges, initials, or simple shapes. Custom die struck pins are great when you want a classic metal look instead of a colorful enamel pin. They work well for companies, clubs, schools, awards, uniforms, events, and professional giveaways.
Will die struck pins look too plain without color?
Not really. That clean metal look is actually the main reason many people choose die struck lapel pins. The raised and recessed metal details give the pin a sharp, premium feel. If you want the design to stand out more, antique gold, antique silver, or antique copper can make the details easier to see.
Can I add color to custom die struck pins?
Yes. If you want a little color, we can add soft enamel into the recessed areas. But if you want a cleaner, more traditional metal pin, you can keep it color-free and choose a finish like gold, silver, black nickel, antique gold, antique silver, or antique copper.
What if I do not have a finished design?
That is fine. You can send us your logo, rough idea, sketch, or even a reference image. Our team can help turn it into a digital proof for custom die struck pins before production starts. You will be able to review the layout, size, plating finish, and details before we make the mold.
How long does it take to make die struck pins?
Most custom die struck pin orders take about About 20 days after artwork approval; rush production usually takes 13–16 days when available.. The exact time depends on the quantity, size, plating finish, and design details. If you need the pins for an event, award ceremony, or company deadline, it is better to contact us early.
