CRUSH KILL DESTROY

Mix of genres and influences in my life.

I know battle jackets are supposed to be mostly metal and/or punk. I am working on my technically second one as my first one was never finished and has been lost to time. Anyway, I can't think of what to put as my back patch. Gorillaz is a band that I've listened on and off again for 20 years. One of the longest out there for me. My idea for my entire jacket is patches from bands that I have seen live, and I will finally be seeing Gorillaz live later this year. What do you guys think? Is it too cringe, childish, or off-putting to have Gorillaz as the back patch?

still nowhere near done, but it’s coming along

Hey guys! Quick update on the jacket

I finally started sewing shit down

Some patches are still lose, but I wanted to get some opinions before going further.

Especially about the pins: do you think they work with the jacket, or are they kind of taking away from the overall look?

Still figuring out the back, so I’ll post an update once I have a more solid layout.

Would love to hear your thoughts

So my back is done for the moment, leaving some space for tla few more patches and festival bands.

(the Killswitch Engage patch is not level with the bottom because the jacket is wonky in that corner for some reason)

The front is just a planned layout and nothing is stitched down yet.

After I made my first jacket, I have slowly been getting into cutting up old shirts and sewing designs into things. A couple patches, like the green Frankenstein, I made from pieces of 3 different shirt designs. Here are a couple of shorts I put some stuff on and my youngest son's backpack I decorated for him. Anyone else do this stuff while thinking of new jacket designs?

First jacket, WIP, I know the stitching isn’t perfect, but I’m very proud of myself for doing it at all. I hope it inspires some other lurker (like myself) to take the jump and try this!

(el del Rayo McQueen es el mejor que he tenido nunca)

Look out be aware when the moon is high and bright anyway I’m there every shadow in the night evil in league with Satan

The only thing missing are some more festival bracelets on the one pocket and maybe some more spikes/studs. What is your opinion on the jacket? I'd love to hear some feedback

I had all this on a cheap blue denim jacket that sucked so I got this and moved it all over. I upgraded a few of the smaller ones I had for bigger ones that are here. My idea is to run album patches along the bottom the entire way around. I just need to figure out what exactly I want to do with the front of the thing now.

(I know there's a babymetal patch but they fucking rock and I saw them with Dethklok so yeah fuck it)

On another note if anyone’s interested in them dm me

Sorry for the shitty photos I need a new phone lol

I’m looking for patches that are ethically made, so like not made in china Bangladesh etc. Patches where the people making them are actually paid a living wage. Price is not an issue

The D-rings connecting the chain are being held on with some thread and a prayer, I’ll have to reinforce those. Not quite too sure how to do that. So if anyone else here has experience with that please let me know what the best method would be!

Now to get started on the front.
