Hey patch collectors, what do you do with your patches?

Sewn on.

Did she remove the glue beforehand or leave it on?

She sewed it on as is. She said the backing on the patches are very similar to the Girl Scout patches she does for my daughter which she also sews. I think if you know how to sew these patches are a pretty simple project. I imagine any mom and pop tailor shop would do it pretty cheaply.

I agree. I told my wife that I like my stuff to have just a whiff of Pearl Jam... Not reek of Pearl jam like a teenager with too much cologne.

Those look great. In anticipation of the patches for Fenway I purchased 2 o'neill and 2 champion hoodies last month at Costco as well. Just need to choose whether or not to sew or iron them on.

I put them on the back of my pj20 backpack

How did you do that with the backpack still in the plastic wrap? You aren't using the backpack are you??????? Craziness.

Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling! Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes. The dead rising from the grave! Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!

Having said that...I'll be putting mine on my PJ Patagonia Black Hole backpack...

How are you putting them on? I have that pack as well. I thought about doing using it, but the back has a plasticlike material, thinking about sewing them to the spandex sides, but not sure if that will hold up when they stretch to put stuff in.

Haven't done anything yet but they will be hand sewn on. I want to have them places on the outside/back of the pack so they're clearly visible...

Those hoodies look like damn good quality! Gonna have to find me a costco. No clue if we have them in MI! Lmao we prolly due. Closest to me is Sam's club. Maybe I could order a couple. Really like those and we have more cooler days here.

Thanks for posting!

Nevermind. Just realized you prolly have to be a costco member.

I stole this idea from someone else on the forum but I'm going to buy a blank 47 adjustable hat and sew the patch on the front seeing as the band refuses to sell any hats that aren't flat brimmed

You can bend the bills on those...

I like the sweatshirt idea. Considered making a felt type banner and putting them on it as I collect. Maybe get a shop to sew Pearl Jam on the bottom and have the rest blank for patches

Wife puts them on tanks that she know fit her, same with cool baseball patches

Oddly enough, I was looking at on2legs' hoodie pics when I was Kohl's with my girl and I saw this pretty sweet blank blackish gray hoodie there called ultimate hoodie. that might workout for you. The inside of the hoodie felt amazing. $25

My wife finished one hoodie this morning. Used the patches from Wrigley 2013 and a $20 Champion hoodie we got at Costco.

Holy crap. I literally ... I mean, LITERALLY ... just was looking at that same hoodie at Costco last night, 14 hours ago. Didn't cross my mind to use it for patches – and this is after I posted in the Ten Club FB group asking for ideas for what to do with patches. I was thinking about putting them on an army green-colored spring/fall light jacket I wear, but this might be the way to go. NICELY DONE so far.

Thank you

That's pretty funny about the Costco story. I also grabbed a light gray O'Neill sweatshirt there too for another set of patches that my wife promises to have done by the end of the weekend. Will post here when done. Cheers!

My wife finished up a second hoodie this morning with a combo of one of the Fenway patches and one form the ten club shop. Got the O'Neill hoodie at Costco. Total cost with hoodie was $30.

Those hoodies are sick, man! I think your pics just bumped up the prices of patches on ebay a dollar or two. haha

Still a work in progress - decided to cut off the sleeves and make a vest tonight
