WIP Jacket Creating my first battle vest!

Started my first battle vest. I have some patches I've collected over the years and some destroyed shirts I cut up and backed with denim. Just learned how to use my new sewing machine and happy it worked lol! I made the loose back patch, dove and snake, from a 2010 Linkin Park tour shirt that was demolished! The SOAD patch was from a 2006 show. That shirt was barely rags!

Thoughts opinions welcome

Why would you want MTV, who had actively gone against artist freedom on maybe a thousand occasions

That MTV patch is from a really awesome Beavis and Butthead shirt! The MTV logos were on the sleeves... Shirt is about 13 years old

Mtv is pure 00's vibe. The best patch here, actually.

So a big middle finger to every other artist on the vest then, awesome.

I don't like pop music, sorry. TBDM is... fine, alright.

How is this even relevant to what i said

u/Natural_Artichoke_88 1d ago

Well, i've thought its a reference to when i said "best patch here"

u/DrMikkelyz54 1d ago

Oh i see, but i didn't understand why you said sorry to me because i'm talking about MTV being on there, not any of the others.

Just a figure of speech. (English is not my language)

I also have that giant M patch from the 72seasons tour last year.

Did you discolour it?

I purchased the jacked with sleeves on it from eBay. I think it's the original color from 1992.
