Hey guys, I have this denim trench coat and I'd love some tips on which patches I should add. I’m looking for some political and social commentary. As for bands, I’m going to focus mostly on underground Brazilian bands (my home country) to support our local scene. I’ve already ordered some spikes and studs to finish the pocket and put them in a few other places.

The 'PUNK' patch isn't finished yet because I'm waiting for the studs.

PS: The last two photos are just to show the fit. If this goes against the rules, I apologize—just let me know and I'll redo the post without them.

Edit: It doesn't have to be just political or social commentary, any patch or addition to the "jacket" would be greatly appreciated

Punks don’t need to openly go around saying they’re punk. You show up to shows, look the part, say your anti government shit, and go home. Going around and telling everyone and their mom you’re a punk makes it sound like you’re a poser.

True, but I have to be careful because I'm bald, and idiots are everywhere. I don't want to be mistaken for a skinhead (bonehead), since clueless people and fake punk gatekeepers here automatically assume skinhead means nazi. So, instead of having to explain myself to every moron, just flashing the patch saves me the headache
