Wish they had taken the time to make them woven. I've never had good luck with printed patches, something always goes wrong with them. Still this thing looks sick AF, lots of little details that you can't get in woven art.
I absolutely refuse to buy printed "merch" from unofficial sources. I swear by Hell's Headbangers Records, they're my favorite label/webstore. Their printed patches are flawless and highly detailed. If you're ever skeptical about any printed patches, try there!

printed patches always feel stiff and funny, and they gloss weird under the light and all.
They also feel funny when you touch them...
I dont really like them.
Are you sure you're not thinking of textile patches? Those are glossy and feel funny. These printed ones only feel like art canvas to me.

I might be wrong, I'm only talking about the ones I've seen. Those are generally printed by a computer blah blah.
There's also screen printed patches printed onto normal patch material, which feel just like screened patches and so on.
I generally like the feel of woven patches a lot.
Silk screen is more tacky and they fade easily, it feels like glue on top of crappy low grade cloth. Textiles are glossy, my Bathory "Hammerheart" one is like that and I'm not a big fan of the type, they look silky but feel weird. These ones feel woven, you can't even feel the print which is awesome!
i know what kind your talking about. they look really nice and detailed, but they feel like a piece of plastic. exhumed had some on their most recent tour.
