/fa/ - Fashion

just copped this bad boy

Dude communism am I right?

Hey everyone! It's the guy from the thread a few days back.

I've spent the past couple days designing a few patches that I hope people will like. My issue is that I can't afford/it's too risky to order more than one initial patch. I'm planning to order 50 of one of these and then restock with more designs from those funds.

So my question: which of these, if any, would you most like to see made? Any of them tickle your fancy? Or do you have any feedback for me?

Here's where they'll be sold: http://againstmeaning.bigcartel.com/
(feedback on the site design would be really appreciated as well)

>>11761876
How exactly did this become a meme?

>>11761910
Shit.

>>11761844
w2c this patch???

Does anyone have any experience with Inner Decay? How's their shipping?

>>11762091
I ordered the one in OP's pic and got it in a little over a week iirc

>>11761949
akira

Links to shops that are based in Europe pls

got this hot lil number in the mail the other day

Thoughts on the Disorderly Goods merit patches? Would they look good on a military jacket or bomber? Looking at the big dipper one

>>11761910
the upside down triangle is the best by far and i dig the website. fits nnicely with your inspo forr the patches

>>11761910
I'd definitely cop PAY ATTENTION, it's perfect for my style

I'd probably get Joyce too but you need to simplify the design like you did with the other guy (telsa...?) because it probably won't look the same embroidered

>>11762255
>>11762258
Thanks guys! Feedback means a lot as I'm pretty new to designing for anyone other than myself

>>11762258
btw it's Marcel Proust, I noticed there are no good literary patches and I wanna fix that

>>11762258
Alright done, how's this?

>>11761910
Don't order just 50, the difference in cost between 50 and 100 is negligible, and shipping is expensive. Better bang for your buck.

>>11762355
My only worry is that I won't find enough people to sell 100 patches to. You think 100 is worth it?

>>11762356
I only did 50 of the first patch I made, and then promptly ordered 50 more. It's really about getting it seen by the right people, there are plenty of pay to post IG's with large followings who will be happy to bump your stuff for a nominal cost.

>>11762356
Do the Joyce portrait. It'll fly. Consider making it a woven patch.

>>11762364
Alright! Thanks man, I'm glad I'm talking to someone who's been through this before

Any recs for good IGs?

>>11762372
Patchgame, Patchcommand, Patchthread off the top of my head

curious, where do u guys put these patches?
backpacks?

>>11762376
And if you don't mind me asking, how much did you charge per patch when you first sold? My plan was to charge around $9 but give out discount codes frequently. Bad idea?

>>11762410
$9 seems high. General cost is $7, but it all depends on your production costs. Here's how to calculate retail:

production cost + shipping / quantity produced x 4

for wholesale, do the same but multiply by 2

>>11762437
Alright, thanks again
This has been really helpful

>>11761910
2 3 and 6 are my favorites

>>11762233
where did you get this? need to cop

>>11762489
anytime

>>11761910
I will LITERALLY buy 1 and 3. Please jist make that 973club one it's really cool fuck 4,5, and 6 they are genuine dogshit but 6 would sell to basic ass bitches as faggy guys. 1 and 3 are actually original

Best place to put this on a stonewash jean jacket? Can't decide

>>11761910
DO 6

>>11763108
the placement in the pic looks fine honestly.

I was thinking about buying this tee and cutting off the back (pic related) for a denim jacket. Whaddaya think?

>>11763544
It's really big. Find out if an xtra small's print will be smaller and if so, it'd be safe to go with that one

not on my watch

>>11763717
I'd cop top right

can anyone link me where to find patches that arent "lol i want to kill myself xd", "have you heard of albert camus" or other edgy nihilistic shit that mundane 16 year old girls thinks makes them look cultured and mysterious?

this is alright:


http://www.storenvy.com/products/5495173-no-handed-bike-club-iron-on-patch

http://innerdecay.bigcartel.com/product/formal-submission-patch

http://innerdecay.bigcartel.com/product/ecstasy-of-st-teresa-patch

http://innerdecay.bigcartel.com/product/l-origine-du-monde-patch (though am sceptical about how well a print will come out)

also i tried to find other paintings and they were literally exactly the edgy shit you would expect:
ivan the terrible repin
saturn devouring his son goya
not saying these arent great paintings but a bit limited.


also if anyone can find:
-christian imagery
-good art
-geometric designs
-mathematical stuff
-references to lit which arent pretentious or if they are pretentious, are at least interesting
-some flags maybe (regional or national)
-does anyone know how well these painting patches turn out in real life? seem a bit fuzzy
-some decent fascistic imagery

>>11761910
1 has an ugly colour pattern but thats just personal taste. 2 and 3 are the best. they come from that schizo maths site, right? 4 and 5 will make you the most money - more people recognise joyce's and proust's faces than have read them. if you want to pay them homage reference their works, not their likeness, fäm. 6 will make your entire website worthless.

here are some ideas. i dont know shit about how these come out as a patch though:
-I would prefer not to. (reference to melvilles Barteble the scrivener but popularised by zizek)
-if you want a good joyce reference perhaps Bladyughfoulmoecklenburgwhurawhorascortastrumpapornanennykocksapastippatappatupperstrippuckputtanach or Bababadalgharaghtakamminarronnkonnbronntonnerronntuonnthunntrovarrhounawnskawntoohoohoordenenthurnuk (looped around or spiralling?)
(cont)

only been effay once
you all look fucking gay with your fucking girl scout patches

>>11765350
Funny you mention that, I've been trying to come up with a good Finnegans Wake patch. My contenders so far are the Euclid diagram, "abcedminded," or "bisexycle."

Using a thunderword would be extremely difficult unless I made a full back patch.

On a related note, what do you think of this? Clearly the details are shit but what about the concept? I want to wage holy war against minimalism

Are patches on blank dad caps effay?

>>11765466
Depends on if the patch is effay u egg

>>11762233

>>11765419
its not maximalist enough, and looks a bit tacky, fäm. why colourless?

>>11765510
I'll try out some more colorways and see how they feel! I'll see how cluttered I can get it while still being legible

>>11765350

>>11765694
w2c chi-rho?

>>11763027
>>11765495
im pretty sure the brand is ball & chain

>>11765694
lmao you fucking neckbeard

what color hat should I get for this patch

>>11765828
It's custom made in a local store.

İ just got this.
İts actually a legit patch thats pretty popular amongst certain people.

>>11766092
way too busy to put on a hat, try a jacket

Hey I got this patch from my job office (I work for the Forest Service) and it fits perfectly over the brand patch of Carhartt beanies?

Cool idea or not? And if it is cool what color beanie should I aim for?

thanks guys

>>11766662
Really depends on your aesthetic I'd say

>>11767097
Earth-tone 90s outdoor clothing I guess, so yeah I feel it would match that

>>11763686
nice!

Alright, what do you fellows think of this first draft?

>>11769788

>>11769812
And here without any overlap

>>11769788
This one is better imo.Maybe ants legs and antennas shouldnt touch the letters.

>>11769830
I do prefer the one with overlap, but i'd color the insect. maybe a different color than >>11769788, maybe a dark red, unless you want to keep it realistic.

>>11765694

>>11761844

Wew

>>11769914
I'll mock one up and post a screenshot.

Here's another I just finished up. What do you all think, does it need a caption?

>>11769914

>>11768134
If they ship to your country pls order two and send me one

I can't figure out how to get it in the US

>>11770018
I like it, looks a lot like >>11768095 (which happens to be the one I posted myself). Not sure if this is the aesthetic that you want to go for, black-red certainly isn't the most original color scheme.

what about this design i made?

>>11770126
Really really bad, sorry

>>11770126
yeah this is really terrible I regret to inform you

are the inner decay patches iron on?

>>11770223
yea

so glad i preordered

>>11770227

W2C Slow Riot For New Zero Kanada patch?

>>11773185
It's all hand-traced but I suppose that can be a problem anyways

Although it may be obvious in the image, the only thing I'm concerned with is how it will show up in a 3-4" woven patch. Unless you think you'd see it there as well?

>>11773211
it will look exactly as you see it in a woven patch.

>>11766363
i need this. w2c

What do you do with patches?

>>11765694
I like you anon

Are these good vest for patches?

>>11774101
no. they'd have to be small enough to not have to cover any of the gap lines. it's also ugly af

>>11774101
They should be single layer without cushioning.

w2c?

>>11761844
nice links bruh, innerdecay seems fantastic

Anybody got links to really good flower patches?

>>11765350
makin fun of edgy teen nihilists when you link to patches that'll make one look like a teenage hipster grill

>>11774889

if you dont like any of these then give constructive criticism

>>11771206
>>11772133
Aww

>>11776229
I'm the Against Meaning guy. Definitely planning on filling your need for literary patches (Joyce especially), mathematical stuff, maybe a Stirner patch at some point. I should probably get around to reading The Ego and His Own before I consider myself allowed to make a patch referencing him though

>>11776527
dont make them just on my account - post multiple designs and get some 4chan market research.

naah fäm you dont need to read ego and his own - just get that classic face in pic related (minus dinosaur). perhaps with "the ego and his own" or ""Der Einzige und sein Eigenthum" or "Union of Egoists"

>>11777310
Don't worry, those are all ideas I've had from the start

I'll start messing around with designs and see if any of them match the kind of themes I'm working with

>>11777310
Acutally "union of egoists" is by fair the best.
make it look like a legit the union of egoists is an actual society

>>11777347
That'd be quite a good idea actually
Damn, thanks anon

>>11766662
How did you get your job? I've been wanting to work for the forest service or as a park ranger but I don't know if I'm qualified. What are the requirements? Patch looks good btw

>>11777404
Honestly it wasn't too difficult. I went here https://www.usajobs.gov/ and began searching around for jobs that interested me within the Forest and Park Service. Having outdoor experience and a relevant degree is always helpful, but you should be able to get lower GS positions (GS1,2,3, maybe 4) with minor experience and at a young age.

Having a national park/forest near to where you live is a major plus (I live in WA and can commute to the forest in under a hour). Now I'm not sure if this is for the entire agency, but I know that my forest begins accepting applications in mid November and the applications are only available for a small 2 week gap, so I'd definitely look into the hiring schedule for where you're interested because it's probably pretty close.

Here is a large reddit post that I found pretty useful when I was looking into the job.

>>11777808
Thank you so much, kind anon

r8 muh patches

Is it possible to ever get this patch again? I need it, but it's sold out. Is it possible that they'll make it again? Or am I shit out of luck.

>>11777347
>>11777310
Hmmm

>>11778643
Nah make it look like the logo for a country club or a labor union or smth. less feminist fashion victim-core.

btw this is a command, property.

>>11779092
I wasn't going to leave the center black u egg, I'm just trying to decide what to put in it

I feel like Stirner's face would be too on-the-nose

>>11779112
Yeah that much is clear. I meant use colors other than white and black, use a less latinate font.

Maybe a map of Berlin with the Young Hegelians' meeting place marked? (pic)

I have these two on my backpack

>>11779582
What bag?

>>11779664

Somebody told me to come here.

I have a hole in the knee of my jeans. It's nothing too bad yet, but I figure I have two options.

1) Do that sewing method where you kind of repair it from the other side with some thread

2) patch it

3) Both?

Thoughts? Will the patch stop the hole from getting any bigger or should I just do both anyways? And what color should I go with?

>>11767792
would be 10/10 if not for the bong ripper

>>11780699
Patch will stop it from getting bigger if you sew it on

It's just a matter of the look you want

>>11780848
Okay, patch it is. I can't sew but I'm sure this is a good time to learn anyways.

Since they are an indigo pair (bit faded) I was thinking of either a maroon patch or just a darker color of indigo. Which color should I go with? Will post pics when I get it done in a week.

>>11779582
sup Elliot

>>11779112

im >>11777347, >>11777310. definately dont do a map like >>11779532 says, thats not what country clubs do. search "country club patches" for inspo. the problem with the design is it loops too far to the horizontal and the german is upside down. try something like pic related (mock-up in paint, choose colour scheme/font as you will).

other ideas:
- sierpinski triangle
- flammarion engraving
- impossible triangle

>>11780699
patch underneath for fray and layer look
patch overtop for clean look

This is my first time here, but in your eyes, what material is best for patches? Denim? Canvas? I wanna get in on this

>>11790167
it's not about the best material, per se, it's more about tasteful placement, avoiding edgy shit, and most importantly, not overdoing it
denim vest or jacket, backpack, and parka (one patch, on the sleeve, like how Canada Goose jackets have their patch) are all good places

>>11774127

w2c?

anyone know where i can find a good CBGB patch?

hey I got my corp jacket (no i'm not a Nazi) and have no idea where I want to put these patches, none are on the jacket yet, only the massive logo in the middle, where do y'all suggest I put them?

Only patch I wear.
It's on my BundesWehr jackets left arm.

do you really walk around with it safety pinned on?

I like it anon. It would be better if the back patches were centered but it looks fine overall.
