Leather Patches…faves, care or lack there of.

Fun thread @Mizmazzle Here are a couple of my most worn patches

[SKT]

And I do love “The Devil’s Duck”

[Giles]

That last one is a good one because no way should that patch be on a pair of 777's. It's the original 666 patch

[SKT]

@Giles ha! Instant collectible

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT yup!! Love that one!!

[Matt]

That one’s on mine too. It always picked at my ocd but I manage to carry on somehow.

Some of these are fantastic - remind me of a few of my early and now-retired IHs.

From memory, I think that a run was made with the incorrect patch,,,,,

This one has been toasted by regular washes, and given a few coats of (human) moisturiser.

@T4920 human moisturiser?

[T4920]

@DeeDee85 ahaha I just mean one designed for skin, rather than leather.

Now you mention it, the phrasing was rather suspect...

We did the IH-666D as the first cut of 5 pocket ducks. Then we decided to introduce the 777. I forgot to ask the Japanese to use a more appropriate patch....

It got fixedf for subsequent runs....

Patches look great @WhiskeySandwich the first is really impressive since the jeans have alot of wear

It finally came the time to retire the patch from my IH-888S-21. It got to scratchy on the shirts after all those 95 degrees Celsius washes.

@Karol wow I've heard of a sea wash, but volcano washing really pushes wabi-sabi to it's limits
