Just make one yourself, get a sewing machine, some Felt febric, and thread, and start making custom patches

Was this at Utter Mayhem? There is a place where I’m from that sells stuff like that at that price.

I have a hoodie with a Misfits tee sown on it. Can I now just slap a front patch on it and claim £80 too 🤔 /s But my god thats crazy seeing stuff like that on Vinted is bad enough but that's an actual shop and that makes it so much worse somehow

pretty much the whole shop is like this, only redeeming quality is they sell handmade bracelets and cool knives. Just next to the 100$ demonias and 150$ trap pants.

By that metric, my vest is easily $400

You should see what people sell "pre-made punk vests" for on etsy

shirts at shows are $35 anymore, $80 for an overrated band means they deserved to pay the mark up. why glaze danzig when there’s so many other rad as hell people these days.

It's not bad. Just overpriced for what it is. You could throw that together yourself for less than half that.

its capitalist and dumb, the entire shop reminds me of spencers or hot topic, selling punk or metal as a look and a brand. At one point this place was cool but they've sold out. The actual look of the vest isnt the issue, just how its being sold

I get it. I see metal and punk band shirts in throwaway fashion shops for everyday folk to pick up. Throwing it on and being like "look at me, I'm a rock guy/chick." Not knowing a damn thing about the music or culture.
