New Vest

kingcruiser · 08-12-2008, 06:53 AM

I had a question about where to put patches on my new vest. I assume the biggest one goes on the back, but are there guidelines about where to put the other patches (American Flag, State Flag, etc.) ? ??? ??? ???

No guidelines. Putt'm where you want

I took my vest to a local custom cycle shop that has a seamstress that sews patches and does leather and jacket repairs. She placed my American flag patch over my heart, so I took her advice. Figured she knows more about it than I do. My AZ state flag went underneath it.

watch about sewing them over the front pockets and inside pockets or you can sometimes sew them shut before you realize it. No I have not done this stunt,,LOLOL

There was a day when you were expected to earn the patches you wore.

But we got tired of all the killing and running from the law and decided to just buy them :)

Your wife doesn't let you wear that red one does she?

I earned my white wings but never the red ones

I'm a veteran. I think I've earned the right to wear the flag on my vest.

Are you sure? LOL.

I actually saw a seamstress at the local swap meet fixing a guy's vest that had a patch that was sewn through a pocket. The guy was so happy to finally have the pocket back. His wife was happy the lady could fix her mistake, lol.

Never intentionally earned the red wings but ... did earn them all the same.
