id take pvc anyday

I buy patches to admire on my patch board, so they have to look nice

A good embroidered patch is way better than a good pvc patch

But a bad pvc patch is better than a bad embroidered patch

indeed

Woven is a nice middle ground if you want sharp and high detail but don't want pvc

I have a few woven patches and they look great

Stuff that would look awful if you tried to embroider it

yep most what you get when you "upgrade" from woven to pvc/vinyl is the colors

youd be suprised how often i need to try and whack this information to head of students who want to cheap out "but this manufacturer is just tad bit cheaper

university students around here have this stupid https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Student_boilersuit thing

what is meant to be tagged as much as collectable,lootable,winnable patches as possible

and somehow i find myself being asked for help more than i care to admit ...

What the fuck

People wear that godawful thing?!

(the image in picture gives bad idea i suggest opening the actualy link and seeing up to date pictures

more like this

but ever school/line has its own color

usualy its not fully up but tied halfway down

but yeaaah

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_student_boilersuit_colours

li mean .. its whole tradition to students around here

i never understood it (even tho i have my wine-red boilersuit too 0-patches sofar cause fuck that noise)

Yeah I don't really get it

buuut anyway tldr: i have annoying amount of knowledge of shitty patches what burn my eyes everytime i even think visiting some student event

i guess this is easier to make it easier to start talking to people

as you can tell who is from where and so on

creates feeling of "unity"

That's not so bad

I like patches but that kind of stuff looks gaudy to me

No thanks

Only one day right

yeah usualy those patches are collected just form student events and bars

people rarely buy to stuff

@Tribit every student party pretty much

and larger happenings where you can be lost from your group and so on

I'll stick with my velcro patch board

mfw Tervy even knows about embroidery
