My favorite way to get patches in this concertless world is to personally reach out to the band online, tell them I’d love to support them, and ask where to buy merch. They always get so happy when you message them directly, and when the merch arrives they throw in extra goodies and handwritten thank you notes.
"...if you don't have a Motorhead patch on your jacket..." Dude, as I am watching this, I am sewing my Motorhead back patch. Actually the whole back will be covered with Motorhead as a tribute to the Man himself since it's his birthday in a day from now. Even did a couple of custom patches with my own designs. Met Lemmy twice and damn, those were the best times of my life. But yeah, while everyone busy celebrating Christmass, the squad and I are celebrating Lemmy starting from 24th and ending on 28th completely wasted. Been a tradition since 2015 when he passed.
LMAO, i watched this video yesterday and i had to come back to this. I ordered dozens and dozens of patches, none of which were motorhead. This was my second batch to fill my second jacket... i just received a single Slayer patch i ordered and it came with a bonus free Motorhead patch, LOL. Maybe its a sign i gotta have the motorhead patch. Of all bands they couldve gave me a free patch for... and this is the only free one ive ever got
I did geek jackets instead. Comic Cons, comic book stores, online through amazon or e-bay, flea markets, I got all sorts. I'd like to say that my geek kuttes are not just a reflection of what I like (Star Trek, old school sci-fi, fantasy, comic books, etc), but they're inspired by heavy metal battlejackets. I love my jacket, even more so since I sewed the patches myself.
Around 5:27 if you turn on subtitles after julian says "is that a ghost ripoff" to the ghoul patch on the subtitles it says yea. You might have just had a stroke reading that btw
Dude I went to Greece at the start of the summer and they have stores that are literally just filled with metal t shirts and patches and it was the dopest shit ever.
Same I really wanna start a jacket but I find it embarrassing because I’m a twelve year old girl and people get very judgemental and I have absolutely no money
@@eloisasmith465 Don't care about people! Few years ago 14yo me came up to my mum saying YO MOM I'M A METALHEAD xD She laughed then, but now she's used to it, as everyone;) stay metal!
Tutorial on how to find new bands: 1) Open Spotify/RUclips/Apple music (or any other media you listen to your music on) 2) Click on any Jhofffilms video (battle jacket, t-shirts and metalhead boxes videos recommended the most) 3) Search for every band noted in the videos 4) ??? 5) Profit....
I look at band websites first, I try get authentic licensed patches first, then eBay and etsy. You can use bing and google after that and may find obscure metal webistes with merch that way. General eBay tip; put item you want in your Watchlist, often if you wait 2 or 3 days you'll get an automatic private offer of 5%-10% off items.
Once I get my first battle jacket, first few patches I'm getting patches of Warbringer, Nile, Goatwhore, Iron Maiden, Children Of Bodom and the backpatch of Amon Amarth.
I got that same Warbringer patch for free. I ordered a t-shirt and a patch from their website but the shirt I ordered was out of stock so they sent me that patch and a different t-shirt 🤟
Saw online one old post that said "battle jackets should not cross genre or be personally customised (specific metal genre only)" which I already failed at because I started making/buying custom patches of my own funky designs and bands I like. I dunno about you guys, but. I'd rather wear a bunch of bands I like from different sub genres than a bunch of bands I don't know just to fit with the theme of one of the bands I like.
Dear Uncle thrash Chris where did you get your demolition hammer patch because I'm going to go see them with overkill I will love to get a patch just a yours did you get it at the show
So what's the consensus of mixing genres/patches on a jacket? I have a lot sewn on mine that are punk, metal, classic rock (the majority are from live shows, minus the classic rock)
It's your jacket so put what you like on it, as long as you listen to the music. If most of your patches are from shows, then that is a true battle jacket. Awesome!
I have that same Exmortus patch. I haven’t actually watched the video yet and still don’t have time, but I started the video and that caught my eye. I watched a bit more, and holy fuck, that Skeletonwitch patch is sick. Oh, I have that Invicta patch too. I should probably just go ahead and stop watching until I can watch all the way. The vest looks great though.
I need a new battle jacket, my old one got worn to fuck plus I have no room on it for extra patches, I’d like to add some extra bands and maybe a Scottish flag and an Edinburgh Napier Uni patch.
I have a friend who refuses to buy patches from ebay, ive bought 90 percent of my patches from ebay and all of them are really fucking nice. My friend got a printed speak english or die patch while i found a pretty much perfect woven one from ebay.

But what if their merch doesn’t ship to my country (not a single merch from my fav bands ship to my country

Here in Finland we cut out ears in moshpits and put them on our jackets.
Suomi perkele
Now thats fucking Metal dude!
So that's where my ear went when I went to finland! Good to now saatana vittu
here in finland we have a pretty painfully mediocre metal scene
It's true I was the ear

Try metal devestation, they have tons of great patches.

I only have punk battle jackets and I even have a MOTORHEAD patch. Nice DRI thrash zone... putting a lil punk in the battle vest 👍😊
were did you get the death patch and what about a suicidal tendencies patch
Look on metal devestation, they have some great patches
That’s I found it
“You go to shows and they sell patches.” Funny, I was at an Overkill show almost a year ago and they weren’t selling patches there.
Very cool
That Cannabis Corpse patch. Damnnnnnn
Like for the Enforcer Cap
And the Jacket ofc
I got most of my patches from kensington market
Spike Priest philly?

Is that original vintage Destruction backpatch? Btw, really nice looking vest, i prefer this vest than your previous lol
Awesome selection
Had the same issue whenever I lost a bunch of weight this year. Immediately started work on new one as soon as I realized the old one was too big.
I have an old band shirt that doesn't fit me anymore.
Can I cut out the print and use it as a back patch?
Good idea dude
That's a pretty good idea
Funny thing is, you can wash your hair with beer. Like, that’s a legitimate hair care routine
I'm fr just trying to find a jacket to put patches on. Just needing a jacket is all. Any recommendations for brands?
Nice battle jacket dude im working on mine 🤘🤘
You have the same Warbringer patch as mine! Sick! Those Havok, Exmortus, Municipal Waste patches are sick too! \m/
I got that same Warbringer patch for free. I ordered a t-shirt and a patch from their website but the shirt I ordered was out of stock so they sent me that patch and a different t-shirt 🤟

I just recently got a jacket and starting my battle vest but does it really matter if it's clean cut or fray look to the vest?
It's your jacket, it can look however you want it to. If you've cut the sleeves off, it will fray over time.
Im glad there is a toxik think this patch on there, i love toxik
I do go on eBay and Etsy but a lot of the time there isn't the patches that I want on them.
I’m from Quebec🤘🇨🇦
Can I keep the sleeves though?
Stopsleetip sleeves = more room for patches, so yeah of course
And warmer in winter.
when i first listened to exodus my hair grew 5in longer
Where can I buy the fucking thrash patch?
Love the new jacket! I have the same Tankard patch!
I make my own patches with acrylic paint its so fun to do. But you need skills
