Denver Nuggets Icon Badge Embroidery Design

The Denver Nuggets icon-only circle badge in the full official four-color palette: a wide gold outer border ring with a red satin inner accent ring separating it from the royal blue field, where two gold diagonal elements cross at center forming a symmetrical X with the pickaxe blade at the upper left arm and the handle end at the upper right. Above the crossing point, two mountain peaks sit side by side, the left peak in silver white and the right in gold, their adjacent edges touching in a paired silhouette that references the Rocky Mountain identity of the franchise. A half basketball in white fill with gold satin panel seam lines anchors the lower center below the X. No wordmark or team name text, making this the cleanest option for cap fronts and small placements where the icon carries the full identity at compact scale.

Eleven sizes from 2 to 7 inches wide. Minimum hoop required is 4x4 inches. Four thread colors: royal blue, gold, red, and white.

Sizes and Stitch Counts

Embroidery Formats Included

26 formats included, compatible with virtually every home and commercial embroidery machine currently in use.

Recommended Uses

Cap fronts and side panels where the absence of ring text lets the icon read clearly at compact scale, left chest on polo shirts and jerseys, sleeve badge positions on outerwear, centered chest on hoodies and tees at mid and larger sizes, and jacket back placement at 6.5 to 7 inches. The icon-only format is the strongest choice for any placement where text legibility at small sizes would be a concern.

Stitching Tips

Use a medium-weight cutaway stabilizer on all knit and stretch fabrics. The paired mountain peaks above the X crossing are the smallest and most detail-dense elements in the design, narrowing to just a few millimeters of satin at 2 and 2.5 inches. At those sizes, apply water-soluble topping on any textured fabric to keep the peak fills and basketball seam lines from being obscured by pile. The gold diagonal arms cross at a single intersection point where stitch sequencing determines which arm reads visually on top, so do not resequence color order if your software prompts for it.
