backpatch hunting

The saYer · Feb 16, 2004

I have had my denim vest without a backpatch for a year now and really want a backpatch for it.

I would love to put a "them" king diamond backpatch on or a voodoo one.

Does anyone know if those exist?

any other suggestions or suggested stores? or online stores?

endless pain backpatch would be nice or a forbidden patch. Something 80's

thanks

i'll speak to hogghead for you sayer,he used to run a shop that sold backpatches,and he's probably got tons left.he had loads of old 80's thrash bands like kreator and exodus patches.i'll see what he can find.what sizes were you looking for?

Get this, I used to make backpatches for my jackets back in the day. If you go to a fabric store you can get the backing, & if you have a T-Shirt with the artwork desired you can sew the thing onto the backing then onto the item. Yes, Swine knows how to sew!

I had thought of doing that, but then I said, nah, it probably doesn't work.

I still have my doubts,, how does it look compared to a real backpatch?

You can use the 3M fabric spray adhesive that you can pick up at any of the fabric stores & spray it on to the backing then place your T-Shirt design on to it wait for it to dry before you begin to sew a seam onto the patch...

I actually got into sewing when I uesd to work for my father who restores interiors of classic cars. What you thought those damn seats on cars were born like that?!

No problem. I have a theory that works for alot of stuff though. "If it's out there, it's online." The problem is finding it online. Use multiple search engines and be savvy with your queries. I think I looked for "Slayer patch" or something and found that place. Different queries and different search engines will give you different hits.

I make my back patches out of old tshirts that don´t fit anymore. I´m not sure how the shipping would be for outside of Europe but you can try here: www.goddessofdesire.info
That´s where I buy a lot of stuff from and they´re always quick.

How else are you supposed to get patches onto clothes?

Dude I don't even know what a "metalhead leather jacket is. I like trenches personally. Get one like Stian, the guy on the left. I have one similar. I bought it at Wilson's during the spring for about 50% off.

ok, I will mess up one of my favorite shirts for this, but it has some holes in the back anyways.
I found a spray adhesive called 3m spraymount, but it says that when applied, it dries and then it can be removed easily. Was that supposed to happen? I mean, I understand that I will have sewn it by then, but doesnt the center of the patch flap out afterwards?
