AC/DC Once upon a time in the vest

T-skjort-SlaktarnWed, 23/05/2018 - 18:17

Used this vest plain in four years as a "go to work/go to school/I don't want to talk to anyone today/I don't want to bee seen by anyone today"-vest. After this four years or something I mostly found hanging in the closet, unused. I guess I got sick of the bad fit and the boring blue/purple/brown colour you get when your used to be light blue but dyed black-vest has been in the sun a lot. What could I do about this?

I fixed the bad fit. Now it suits me perfectly. I really like it. I fixed the zebra panels and the zebra-collar. I fixed the leather panels in the front and the leather on the pocket-covers. I love both Stevie Nicks and Non Phixion, but there aren't much patches with these artists out there. I ordered some cheap t-shirts from a cheap print shop with the prints I wanted (or could get) and made the back patches out from them. I sew on the patches and last of all put on the badges. I'm really glad for the Discharge metal-pin.

Guess it's done for now. But I really want some big logo with some band I love below the Stevie Nicks picture. There is so much space there that is useful.

Looks great, and I love when a vest has personal history. It feels more authentic than some new vest you just bought online if that makes sense.

That makes sense :) Thank you!

Looking awesome dude. Stevie has great vocals. Work collegue seen Her with Fleetwood Mac and said she sounds amazing live.

T-skjort-Slaktarn on Fri, 25/05/2018 - 16:20

Yes she is so great. I would love too see her live or Fleetwood Mac live sometime myself. I guees it's not a impossible dream. But maybe I have to travel to another country to catch a show.

Hope you get a chance mate!! Yeah you might have to. Get a VIP ticket and get Her to sign it would be amazing.

It's the N-O-N, P H, I X, I-O-N! Nice, never would have thought to see Non Phixion on a battle jacket! Need to make me a patch of them, as well! Fucking A, man!

T-skjort-Slaktarn on Fri, 25/05/2018 - 16:18

Hey, thank you very much! :) I would never thought that either. So I thought I had to do it myself :) They are one of my absolute favourite bands ever.

Awesome GBH patch... and what is Nonphixion? That logo looks very similar to the legendary Voivod one

Wow! Never thought that recordings with Ill Bill and Necro's old death metal-band could be found on youtube.

Nater90 on Sun, 27/05/2018 - 03:42

Yeah was shocked, wouldn't be easy to obtain one of those demo tapes!

T-skjort-Slaktarn on Tue, 29/05/2018 - 11:45

Haha no, I guess that tape is very very rare. I thought the music was pretty good. I was impressed by the raw vocals by Ill Bill and the fact that Necro played that guitar as a 13-year old.

Nater90 on Tue, 29/05/2018 - 11:48

No doubt was epic as. Whoa 13? That's wicked as fuck!!

T-skjort-Slaktarn on Sat, 26/05/2018 - 17:57

Yes, I am really happy for the G.B.H-patch. :) Non Phixion is a hiphop-group with some old metal-dudes. In their album The future is now's thank you-list they thanks Voivod for the logo.

Voivod is great too!

Nice. I absolutely love a vest that is simple like this and not crammed with a million patches. And the coolest thing about this vest is the Stevie Nicks on the back, I love when someone has so many different genres including non-metal and non-hardcore on their vest. Great job.

T-skjort-Slaktarn on Wed, 01/08/2018 - 19:37

Thank you so much! Yes I listen to so much more music than metal and hardcore so it just feels natural. And I love Stevie Nicks, she's one of my favourite artists.

I have on vest with a million patches in progress, but it's mostly because it's fun to make it :)

Thanks again for the support! :)
