My first battle jacket! I'm going for a doom/stoner/classic hardcore punk theme, with a few patches of other bands I'm into. The back and sides are a work in progress, as I'm waiting for a couple more patches to come in (as well as patches picked up at future shows,) but it's finally to a point that I can start wearing it. I'm quite proud of it, especially considering it's my first major sewing project. Note that I converted the standard collar into a mandarin style. My only gripe is that it looks too clean... any ideas on how I can dirty it up, without ruining the patches or making it stink? Please let me know what you think!

awesome vest!
overtime it will get that more "lived" in look.
nice idea for the mandarin collar.
unique, definitely.
you can try leaving it in the sun for an extended time.

Where did you get that Sleep patch :)?

I picked up the Sleep patch at their show in Austin in 2010. It was an amazing show, as I'm sure all their shows from that tour were.

Thanks, I think I got it off the Adult Swim website, but can't remember. I appreciate all the kind words, I'm glad to see others dig it as much as I do!

Negative, they're both red, I guess the lighting made them look pink. =P
