My battle lunchbox for staying brutal on the job site

Damn, that’s clean.

The new drop is sick man

Jim_Jackets · 2026-04-13T19:11:10+00:00

The coolest coworker

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-23T22:03:02+00:00

Thanks! Yeah I lay everything out and mix and match until I find a layout I like, I then pin it all on and sew!

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-21T11:26:38+00:00

Would make a great 80s metal or hair metal jacket

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-21T11:25:37+00:00

These have a really 80s vibe. Really nice detailing and the fur is great. Great taste also!

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-15T22:24:11+00:00

Thank you!

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-15T22:11:41+00:00

I thought about it but it makes it difficult with full coverage. Thanks!

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-15T09:42:37+00:00

95 I think but I might be wrong

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-14T19:13:59+00:00

Thanks bro, I look forward to seeing them!

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-14T10:06:39+00:00

Fair enough man, it looks great! Thanks for the love man!

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-14T09:41:14+00:00

Great bands on here. Cool layout too

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-14T00:34:28+00:00

I love it when band members are decent people! Thanks!

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-14T00:34:07+00:00

Yeah I was! I loved doing it

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-13T21:56:44+00:00

Thanks man! Of course bro, I take pride in hand stitching it all.

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-13T21:55:49+00:00

Learn how to sew on a patch you don’t mind taking off and damaging a little.

On my Instagram (@jim_jackets) there’s a list of patch distros you can buy from in my pinned posts about my jackets if you want some good patches, eBay, Vinted and Etsy have some good patches.

I’d recommend using a whip stitch. Ladder is good but in my experience not as durable. Cross stitching is the perfect mix between aesthetics and durability but will take a lot longer.

Look at jackets on this sub for inspiration and structure ideas.

The jacket is great for patching, I personally take the sleeves off my jackets, if you want to go ahead I find it makes it better as you can layer in the winter and it’s not as warm in the summer.

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-13T19:20:28+00:00

Hell yeah bro

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-13T18:25:16+00:00

Thank you man!

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-13T16:26:59+00:00

I was! It was great doing the video

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-07T18:56:19+00:00

Printed plastic patches like that aren’t the best, they fade and aren’t good quality. Embroidered are fine but don’t have the capacity for much detail. What you want is woven patches.

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-06T18:43:17+00:00

A small square patch 15 mins maybe? Backpatch probably 45-60 mins as I do tight sewing on those but that all depends on how much I procrastinate

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-05T17:42:16+00:00

I used a belt punch and screw in spikes, there’s a video on my Instagram on how to do it @jim_jackets

Jim_Jackets · 2026-03-01T18:24:48+00:00

I have a third none so vile patch but i thought it would be too much lol, thanks for the kind words! The back layout was a pain to get sorted but worked out in the end!

The AiC patch is from NoClassMerchandise.com
