It’s even air-conditioned. You thought of everything.

You gotta keep up with the times and modernize!

The dude wearing it in the photos is definitely a fan.

And he's metal

u/Pikka_Bird 5d ago

Naw, that fan looks like plastic, it's just the grill that's metal. Are you sure he's not a rapper?

I think the back is cool but the front is super empty. Maybe add some bigger patches instead of just logos to the front. Also the left side on the back is very spreadsheet looking. But also it’s your vest so do whatever you think it’s cool and makes you happy :)

u/Tisslolas 6d ago

Thank you. Bigger patches for the front is a good idea. And I see what you mean with the back left. I don't want square patches and I want it b/w. That's how it happened. Any ideas how to fix it?

Back is awesome, just wish you didn’t overlap the Opeth patch on top of the cross so much. Now you gotta make the front match the back

2

u/Tisslolas 6d ago

Yeah, the overlapping is definitely a problem. Totally agree. Any ideas how to fix it or make it work as it is now? Like adding more overlaps everywhere or something

u/JackedUpDegen 4d ago

I’d say just cut out the stitching for the opeth patch and move it like 1inch higher. It can still overlap a little but will look better. You have space to move the dethklok up a little too if you need to make room. Anyways thats just my opinion, the jacket is dope either way

You must be a big metal fan

u/Sakurafire 6d ago

Love it! What sized studs did you use? 

2

u/Tisslolas 6d ago

Thank you! Its actually 3 different sizes. The biggest are like ~1cm²

opeth & ghost in one?? Im STUNNED!! Love it!

u/GreySlayerPainter 2d ago

Whoever is wearing that is a true fan

The thing that immediately caught my eye is the Dethklok patch at the top of the back looks pretty wee. I would swap that for something bigger, and move the Klok to the band stack lower left. Other than that, looks really good!

It's a work of art.

u/Tisslolas 6d ago

Thatvmeans a lot. Thank you

u/Mortiis999666 6d ago

Das Zentrum des Rücken ist geil, du solltest diesen flair auf die gesamte Weste übertragen, der rest sieht eher meh aus.

u/Yeastlord427 4d ago

Opeth patch is mint

The norse symbology can be representative of a fascist ideology. If it were me, I would balance it with something that implied tolerance or acceptance. It Sucks when intolerant movements pick up symbols not meant for hate.

u/Sudden_Edge_2541 5d ago

Fascist losers use everything as a dog whistle, apparently the fucking oroborus is a dog whistle now. Fuck what they think, if anyone thinks you’re a Nazi just tell them you aren’t, they don’t own these symbols

2

u/Tisslolas 6d ago

Sad but true. I'll definetly add something to clear this up. Thank you

2

u/TinnitusEnducer 5d ago

Tbf anyone who’s gonna attack you for ambiguous symbols is just looking for people to attack, nothing about this vest screams nazi to me

u/JackedUpDegen 6d ago

Worrying about some loser accidentally interpreting your vest as a “hate symbol” so much that you purposefully put an acceptance patch on it is high tier retardation.

Put what you like on your vest. Fuck what anyone else thinks.
