My fourth "completed" vest I suddenly decided to make and try to get finished before the Shape of Despair 30th anniversary show on 4th January 2025, in December. I barely made it, but it turned out to be slightly out-of-tune considering I mostly had more traditional brand of doom patches available, rather than death/doom and funeral doom that would've been more appropriate. Still, I'm pretty pleased with the end result, working with what I had.
I had planned to do some sort of retro/old school/traditional doom/stoner jacket, hence all the patches of that sort I had on hand. I'm still going to do one, eventually, and rework on this a bit more. I might remove the more gothic elements from it and replace with growly stuff, but first I have other higher priority things to work on.

So cool, the patches are lined up very nicely.

Thanks! I'm not perfectly happy with it myself, but considering what I had it did turn out decent enough!

No problem

Nice taste!
Velkaarn
Thanks! It's not quite what I would have preferred to make, due lack of certain patches, but still representative enough!

Great vest and great taste!
Velkaarn
Thanks! It swerved a little off the path but despite that turned out pretty good! I'm planning to edit it a little when I've too much time in my hands.

Sick reverend bizarre patch where’d you get it?

The b/w rubber patch on the back or the Slice of Doom in the front? Back one is official, by Rubber Patches Mania (@rubberpatchesmania on IG) and it was released in November '24 - limited, so it could be sold out by now, but never hurts to ask! They also made a black and yellow strip patch at the same time. The front one is a fanmade (=unofficial) by Unholy Patches, also from last year and I know that's sold out on both border variants - I ordered the last purple one. Some distros have had copies.

All three Electric Wizard patches, especially the Dopethrone back patch are sick!
Velkaarn
Thanks man, I think Greathelm still has them... but since you're in the States you'd want to grab one from No Class Merchandise. He's still got two of them left!https://noclassmerchandise.com/product/dopethrone/
EW is a bit over-represented here, but what can I say, they're damn good especially back in the day!
