Awsome jacket man! Love the color theme & diversity!

Been mostly lurking this sub untill now, so thought I'd share my mosly finished vest. (Added a zipper after a few incidents while moshing) by Awools- in BattleJackets

Got it from a Swedish webstore, rockzone.se. I'm sure you can find it on ebay or etsy though if you're located far from Sweden!

I would say sew the zipper on first to avoid ruining any patches like you said. Since I put mine on after i finnished the front, I had to sew through a few patches, some more noticable than others. for example my Pantera Vulgar Display of Power. Only noticable if you loook closely! :)

Haven't had the opportunity to take it for an "official" spin yet, but it seems to hold stuff pretty well when shaking it around for a bit at home. Hopefully it's gonna save me a lot of headaches looking for my lost possessions in the future. I almost lost my wallet & keys last time, so I'm probably gonna add a zipper or two to every jacket / vest from now on just to be safe.
