Godsmack Leather Battle Jacket 2.0

This is the completed version of my leather jacket. Hopefully.

A lot of work has gone into this over the years. Since version 1.5, I filled out empty areas, added more spikes and some studding, added shoulder straps, and made the sleeves detachable.

Most venues wouldn't let me in anymore (whether it was metal concerts, non-music conventions, or even some local bars). The zippers and seams added to make the sleeves detachable was the only part not modified by myself- this was taken care of by a lovely local seamstress at Lynn's Alterations. They may not have had perfect English, but understood what I wanted, and were good to work with even if they had different tastes.

A lot of the patches are custom printed, custom embroidered, or bought from local and online shops. So about half of these are unfortunately bootleg. I tried buying originals or from the artist when I could.

Not for sale or trade

Nice dude. Love the Avatar patch especially. Kind of obsessed with them.

Thanks! I don't remember where I got it, but it is unfortunately a definite bootleg. Threw on some red ink and blood spots myself, because it stood out too much. Still stands out, but I'm glad I didn't make it worse!

All good. A lot of mine are bootleg, my Avatar one isn't though. Some bands are just too difficult to find patches for. And if I do find one they cost an arm and a leg. Or I hate the design. haha

This was custom made. I can't remember which person exactly, but when I need to make a custom patch I go to either NatikoStudio or CMPatches on Etsy. They make great quality work!
