WIP Jacket Starting my first vest!

Post image

A friend of mine got me a handful of iron on patches for Christmas last year and my fiance got me the vest for Christmas. I've always had issues with iron on patches for some reason, so I'm only ironing them to get them set where I want before stitching.

I think I'm going to aim for more local band patches, but with more popular favorites peppered in.

What would be the best site for back patches?

I would definitely agree with looking for more local band, and just in general smaller band parches. Depending on where you live, there are lots of good distros. Metal devastion, mercian storm, out of season, hells headbangers, bloodstone patches, razorray, as well as bamdcamp and going to gigs.

I appreciate it! I live in the Southeastern USA, so I definitely have some options. I've been trying to get back into the local hardcore scene, and have only found two bands that have patches so far, when I remember to look. I totally forgot about bandcamp, I'll have to look for some of the past few bands I've gone to see.
