^Haha. Thanks. Patching, one of my new and current obsessions. Bearding a tried and true obsession.

That speed skull patch is so dope!

[HeavyGenes]

I really like NNN patches, but they are so hard to get and are expensive. Then I started my internet digging for patches with an aesthetic I liked. Got the speed skull along with some of the others at an Etsy shop. I love her aesthetic and the patches lived up to my expectations when I received them. My only gripe is they took a long time to ship. It's nice to be aware of this if you get something. But when you get it you'll be happy.

Really cool stuff love the patchwork as well. Patch placement on the sleeves is pretty unique.

Nice,I have a friend with a gorgeous Chief Vintage. I’ve ridden just about all of them whenever they have the demo truck at the dealer. Great bikes.

Speaking of patches, I was inspired by yours and picked up one of these for my 526Jod: https://www.etsy.com/listing/458067090/vintage-inspired-cat-patch

What's the best stitch to use to sew it on properly? Also should I pick up any specific type of needle to go through that 21 oz denim?

[HeavyGenes]

Cool chainstitch patch! I used a basic sewing needle, thick gauge. I’d recommend a thimble to push thru thicker areas like seams, if you are placing over areas like that. If you goto your local art/crafts store they can help you pick out thread. Usually it’ll be a sweet older lady that will happy to share any info with you. [emoji1417]

I want to do a large chainstitch patch for the back. Need more inspiration and or ideas. But found these guys and will try for a custom one.

i'm a bit confused considering between 526Lod or 526PJ 21oz, any suggestion?
been using 526Jod for 3,5 years.

If you want another overdyed jacket, go for the IH-526Lod otherwise go for the indigo IH-526PJ

Thanks Giles, guess i’ll go for indigo this time.

I'm a huge fan of OD but indigo type III is a classic forever.  Can't go wrong with it.
