Top Reddit reviews mentioning Sewing Seam Rippers:
Get a stitch ripper. It takes 2 minutes to do it, I've done it to all my clothes to remove the logos.
Get a seam ripper from the sewing shop/Walmart/amazon, and break the stitches holding it on.

I use a seam ripper to free medication trapped in torture packaging. I just rip open the back of the packaging with it lol. I keep one in the medicine cabinet, my travel meds kit, and my night stand.
E: to clarify
I used to work at a public safety store (police, fire, EMS uniforms) that did embroidery. Pick yourself up one of these from Amazon or Walmart or a craft store and you'll have your name off of there in no time. It'll take under a minute per letter once you get the hang of it. To help reduce the chance that you stick the seam ripper through the fabric and make a big hole, keep the area you're working on against a table top and keep the pointy end parallel to the table and fabric. Once you have it cleaned up, take something like a firm nylon bristle brush and go over the area on both sides of the fabric. It will help pull any thread fibers out of the holes and make the holes close up as much as they can. If you want to be safe you can then rub some seam sealer over the spot from the inside.
You can get a seem ripper off Amazon for around $5. They can be used to remove annoying tags.
I'll respond more later. I have a migraine so it's hard to come up with a thoughtful response.
FYI, I saw someone on an autism subreddit recommending buying a seam ripper (which people use for sewing) to remove clothing tags, instead of trying to get them off with scissors and accidentally making holes in clothes. I haven't tried it yet, but I'm ordering one!
If they do come with an ugly patch, you can buy a cheap seam ripper and take it out easily without harming the jerseys at all.

Just buy a seam ripper. Safer than scissors. https://www.amazon.com/Clover-White-Ergonomic-Seam-Ripper/dp/B005KBZTCI/ref=mp_s_a_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=seam+ripper&qid=1626985514&sprefix=seam+ripper&sr=8-5
You need to have holes in the fleece at even intervals to crochet the fleece to the blanket. I did this with a seam ripper https://www.amazon.com/Dritz-638-Deluxe-Seam-Ripper/dp/B0001DSIVY/ref=sr_1_9?dchild=1&keywords=Seam+ripper&qid=1598054814&sr=8-9 and a ruler but you can use the point of scissors against a wooden cutting board (you have to puncture the fleece without damaging the scissors: any wood scrap will do). You can also buy a sharp crochet hook just for attaching fleece (https://kollageneedleshop.com/crochet-hooks.htm makes a pointy tip version that cuts right through fleece so you don't need to precut!!! I use mostly DK weight yarn, so bought a 4.0mm hook to test with fleece: it was perfect ❤️)
You'll have to rip the stitching somewhere on the cushion using either a knife or a seam ripper ( http://www.amazon.com/Dritz-638-Deluxe-Seam-Ripper/dp/B0001DSIVY )
I also found this guide on that may be helpful. http://loveoffamilyandhome.net/2014/02/saggy-couch-solutions.html
There's a sewing tool called seam ripper, with which you can undo the thread and remove the whole tag without nicking the fabric
Lol! You’re not stupid. It’s one of these. They don’t come up in normal conversation so… It’s awesome for getting the hair unwound from your vacuum’s brush too.
Whatchu gotta do is buy one of these and as soon as you get home from the store go ahead and have a fucking blast tearing them all out. Pocket stitches, coat tail stitches, visible labels, I even use it on annoying tags that come on button up shirts (which is really a shame. They spend all of that time making it out of fiberglass and razorblades and put the essence of "biting your own cheek" and "dude in front of me is going too fast to pass but too slow to drive comfortable" along with a bunch of other annoying shit in there too, which I'm sure takes a lot of effort and know-how. Real craftsman type shit.)
I've been using this one a lot: https://www.amazon.com/Dritz-Seam-Ripper-Large-Purple/dp/B00UY15X2K/ref=sr_1_53?crid=123ZM77XFGKKQ&keywords=seam+ripper&qid=1642369990&sprefix=seam+%2Caps%2C509&sr=8-53
Fits in my hand and it's sharp
It's trivial with a seam ripper.
Next time you're at Walgreens pick one up, check that shit off your to-do list :)
I saw a post somewhere that someone tried a seamripper (sewing tool). While the real ones look a little fragile for construction use, it is a good concept. And it is usually used going away from the user.

You can use a seam ripper to cut it off from the back.
They’re probably cheaper somewhere else, but here’s an example: Dritz 638 Deluxe Seam Ripper https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0001DSIVY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_MMPVH5XJ8PYEGVQWPCKP
I hope you find greener pastures
This one is my favorite. It’s the right combination of a large, comfortable handle and being lightweight so it’s not tiring to use.
Yes, maybe. If it is embroidery you can often remove it from the back where there is some stabilizer that is usually white. Going out it from this side protects the sweater and the stabilizer sheet is usually flatter and easier to pick up threads from. A seam ripper is pretty cheap and safer than a razor blade. The pointy bit picks up the thread and if you slide it along, there is a sharp edge in the cradle of the U shape. To make sure the threads do not keep coming out, dot any loose ends on the back with a bit of glue when you are done.
I don't know how much they would charge for this, but a shop that does embroidery could do this for you pretty easily.
Post a picture of it and we’ll tell you. Embroidered patches would need to be covered. I did this with one gi. Sewn on patches can be easily removed by yourself with a seam ripper. Glued on may be removable, but probably not and would need to be covered.

Get yourself a seam ripper and use it to carefully pick out the existing stitches. This shouldn't harm the uniform at all. Then, if you've got your Council's vintage patches, sew them on by hand. I like to use thread that matches the dominant color of the patch so you don't notice it as much as the white thread on those red patches.
But why would you even buy these???
Also, do you own one of these? https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B000YZ8MVU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glc_i_YDNK84W3G19AP4X0F1MY
I think it would seconds before I opened those pockets.
The ones that you buy at the 'big box' fabric stores anymore, are basically all the same. And they break easily. They all do the same thing though. Handle with a razor sharp blade and a stabby point. When I ask my granddaughter to hand me my 'stabby thing'...she knows to grab my seam ripper. Clover makes great tools. This one might last you a bit longer: https://www.amazon.com/Clover-White-Ergonomic-Seam-Ripper/dp/B005KBZTCI/ref=sr_1_9?dchild=1&keywords=seam+ripper&qid=1617145085&sr=8-9
A cheap seam ripper is amazing for taking off the old Velcro. Just remember it is very sharp.
And for photos, I always try to remember if the thrower is out, the gloves are on. At least in the movies. Makes for better photos.
Trust me, I understand! Use your own judgment since you'll be in the best position to tell by looking at it in person.
BTW, if you don't already own a seam ripper, I highly recommend picking one up. They're the best way of removing errant threads and such without harming the rest of the garment, and they're very inexpensive.
I'm going to de-stitch my jersey and bring it into the Pro Shop @ Sharks Ice (they won't do the de-stitching, I asked).
Do you have any recommendations on what tool's I should use for this process? I found a couple on amazon like this one, but any tips would help! Thanks.
Probably thinking of a Seam Ripper.
This is my preferred one. https://www.amazon.com/SINGER-47325-Comfort-Ripper-White/dp/B07KRWMSGY/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=seam+ripper&qid=1597078040&sr=8-5
The label is lame, but you can take it off easily with a seam ripper. https://www.amazon.com/Dritz-638-Deluxe-Seam-Ripper/dp/B0001DSIVY/ref=sr_1_4?s=arts-crafts&ie=UTF8&qid=1544363320&sr=1-4&keywords=seam+ripper
You could try using a seam ripper instead. I'm sure it would work great.
My seam rippers have a little rubber tip on both sides that helps grab the stuck threads. I imagine a (clean) pencil eraser would do the same thing. I have also use scotch tape to grab loose threads.
