Ensiferum My Leather

HeathenThroneSun, 11/04/2010 - 04:19

I just bought this at the Kennmore (downtown crossing) army/navy store in Boston mass. I got it for 99$, it's realy leather so I thought that was a really good deal. Plus it's pretty metal so I thought I'd post it. I also am thinking of maybe sewing a back patch on it but I wanted to know if it's actually possible to sew through leather first. The Ensiferum patch isnt sewn on FTW, but that's where I'd want to put one. Tell me what you think.

decent jacket. Yea you can sew em on, you need a special leather needle and tread though. You can get them at any craft store i think.

In my opinion you should not sew anything on your leather, if you want to add something and you're good at drawing maybe you could try wit some special paints, I know a guy with an awesome King Kobra design on the back of it's jacket

Either way, I really think painted leather is cool I just wouldent want to do it to my jacket. Paint cracks after a while and stuff. I think I might try to gain access to a sewing machiene and maybe sew this back patch on:

And maybe some other small patch on the front. Dont know yet though.

Gay? Deppends on what you draw and how, I suppose.

in my opinion, sewing on patches to a leather ruins it. I'd say paint it on but make sure you make the right placement and dont overcrown your jacket with band names painted on... i did it to mine and it looked absolutly horrible.

I'd go for painting it on too

but really not too much logo's, maybe one or two big ones on the back and 2 small ones on the sleeves, not more, that really kills it, in my opinion the front looks best just as it is, with nothing painted on it

yeah, I probably wont paint anything on it or sew anything. But if anything, I might sew a patch above the small pocket on the bottom front.

ManOboy on Mon, 12/04/2010 - 02:10

if anything yea a small patch.

i think a small patch (and maybe a pin or two) would look bad ass, but just the jacket by itself is pretty cool. awesome find!

Def a metal jacket all the way...with or without patches. (and good price, too) However, hopefully you've sewn some on. As u can see from all the pics on this site, it can be done. Any update to ur jacket?
