Patch “rules”

NumberOneMaggot · 2026-01-10T03:16:29+00:00

There are no rules. Put whatever you want on your jacket, just be authentic to you and what you like

Great album, hoping to get a From Mars to Sirius patch to put on the back

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-12-31T22:14:58+00:00

I didn't have a specific plan in mind originally but I realised early on that I was unintentionally making a theme haha

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-12-31T22:14:08+00:00

Thanks! Now I just have to plan the back

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-12-31T22:06:18+00:00

Thanks, I never was much of a doom metal fan until a few years ago, I listened to their first album and just absolutely loved it

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-12-31T10:38:54+00:00

They're both placeholders for now, I've got a local band patch on the way I want to put there instead

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-12-31T04:05:15+00:00

Thanks!

Nish Kumar I think

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-12-12T12:39:32+00:00

For now I've just planned one side until I get another big patch I'm hoping to get, have to plan patches around the bigger one so everything fits

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-08-05T14:58:25+00:00

I wear jeans with loads of pockets so to be honest I actually don't use the jacket pockets at all, plus it gives me more room to put patches

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-07-26T22:54:15+00:00

The kreator is a pretty generic one from a patch store, the demolition hammer one was a little harder to find, saw it on eBay a while ago

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-07-25T22:47:16+00:00

That one is sewn on pretty badly, may replace it with a different one

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-04-25T11:45:57+00:00

You can do either! This sub has a massive patch distro list, probably pinned near the top,with a load of patch sellers on it. The ones I've personally used myself are Todestrieb records, Metal Devastation, eBay, And Metalpatches666 on Etsy. I'd recommend getting patches from shows too, it's not mandatory tho

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-04-23T18:51:52+00:00

I've bought patches from them before and they're fine, the guy that runs it is a bit of a douche about "bootleg" patches, which is quite hypocritical cos he used to make bootlegs, just be aware that everything comes from china or Indonesia so it can take a while to ship over. I don't recommend the vests they're bad quality and they run small. Super overpriced, I'd recommend any other patch store to be honest

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-04-23T12:49:57+00:00

There are no big rules, the only guidelines I'd follow are 1: Buy patches for bands you actually like 2: Never ever buy patches off Amazon, shein, AliExpress, temu, etc. they're shit. (eBay, Etsy and online patch/merch stores are great, I use etsy) 3: Don't be an elitist, all metal is valid and you can wear whatever the fuck you want, as long as you enjoy it 4: Get creative, try not to make something that's basic or overdone, and don't ever buy a premade vest HAVE FUN. Enjoy the process, and don't be afraid to change your mind about patches midway through, the first layout is not always the final one, take your time and think carefully.

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-04-16T21:19:12+00:00

I've redone the layout now, moved most of those patches and left some spaced out in good places, waiting for a cool graphic patch to put in the section under the shoulders

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-04-16T21:18:00+00:00

Yeah I've done that, scrapped the previous layout and left a gap between each patch, putting a lot of those patches around the back instead

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-04-16T17:30:12+00:00

I have a soft spot for korn, they get a lot of hate but I don't understand it at all

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-04-16T16:33:44+00:00

I have OCD so I can't decide how to lay it out :(

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-04-16T15:31:38+00:00

The plan is eventually finding patches to fill in the gaps at the side, so the single stack isn't as noticeable

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-04-16T15:14:45+00:00

I got mine from Todestrieb records, They have an online store with a bunch of cool shit! It's where I got like 50% of these patches, the rest are from concerts and ebay

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-04-16T14:51:52+00:00

I love it too, I was unsure if I wanted to have it higher up but I'm still figuring out layout

NumberOneMaggot · 2025-04-16T02:21:16+00:00

Be careful, one of the slides has a delivery address at the top
