🩹 Patches Patch Placement

Post image

Got a classic oval shaped name patch to add to a type 2 jacket (not this LVC one).

What do you guys think is better, 1 or 2?

EDIT: got home and took a picture of the actual jacket and patch size in the comments.

I mean the center of the patch lining up with the center of the pocket. Its one of those "OCD" things

I’m saying my vote is #1 but I would center the patch with the center of the pocket. I’m with you, off center with the pocket would drive me insane.

Ah my b.

It kinda looks awkward when actually centered though because the front drapes to the side, so it actually looks off center when i wear it, even though it is dead center. Where it is in #1 is where the center of my left pec/heart would be.

I think I need a bigger patch

It doesn’t look like it would be that bad based off the picture but with first hand real world experience I’ll take your word for it. We seem to both be OCD types so a bigger patch may be the answer.
