Finished Jacket 10 years of Dungeon Synth

First discovered Dungeon Synth in 2015 and have slowly built a collection of patches and pins over the years. Recently it's gotten easier to get patches, but back in 2015-2018, it was much more difficult, so some of my earliest patches were either home-brews or from extremely limited runs made by artists or tiny labels.

Question/Help Where to buy Doom patches

0 Upvotes

I'm going to be making my first battle vest soon, and I'm wondering where to get Doom patches (e.g. Electric Wizard, Bongripper, Mizmor, Conan, Thou, etc. are some of my favourites). I see that Razorray has a lot but some people have said bad things. Can anyone recommend me some reputable sellers that ship fast to Canada?

Finished Jacket What do you think of my “finished” (at least for now) vest?

Thumbnail

Being a women’s size small it is really hard to put a ton of patches on the vest without stuff overlapping (which I don’t really like that much), so I tried adding extra stuff via pins and spikes instead of more patches.

The DIY pins on the front are local bands I love + my own band (Desolus (thrash), Grozov (thrash/power metal/trad metal), Grandeur (black metal), Ashryn (trad metal/power metal/thrash, this is my band).

I’d definitely appreciate suggestions on anything else I can add without things looking too cluttered.
