Rubber patches

Do you actually sew on rubber patches? I ask because I see not many sewn onto battle vests, I mostly see them pictured separate on this site. I am working on my second vest and sewing all those suckers on as I get them, even if I paid a little more than normal for them. Do you like to just hold onto them and admire them or do you sew them on?

Also what is your method for sewing them? I go through the black part right along the edging then loop over the white border. With woven or printed I go through the edges but with rubber I go over the edges. I use white thread How do you do it? What color do you use for thread?
