NBR What do you use for a patch jacket?

Post by KCScooterDude »

I've built up quite a collection and I wonder what you all use for a patch jacket? Feel free to post photos.

I have a 'shop shirt' (black button down collared shirt) from The Scooter Lounge that is going to be my patch shirt. It has a large embroidered Scooter Lounge logo on the back and I figure it's easier to sew to than any of my jackets. No photos yet, I've been procrastinating for a year now - time to take it to the laundry/sewing shop.

I use an old favorite denim jacket.

Some friends of mine who have been going to rallies all over the place for DECADES have their patches grouped by year, mounted, and framed on display in their den. Livin the dream! 8)

I have a Levis denim jacket that I have sewn my patches onto. I have the patches specific to friends on the front: on the left is the patches in memory of friends and ribbons for causes that are important to me, on the right are patches and buttons from club events and friends. Patches from rallies and shops are on the back with my Genuine patch in the middle.

Most of my patches are hotrod rather than scooter, but I've got an ancient shop jacket sporting the logo of the "Ramcharger's maximum performance club" from the 60's and a bunch of other hotrod patches.

My scooter patches(all 3 of them) are on my Corazzo 5.0's sleeves.

I wear it proudly to all of the rallys/rides I attend - I just wish the logo had some indication of location, Provo, Orem or just Utah. More people ask about the shirt and 'The Lounge' than they do about any of my scooters :wink:

I'm planning on using my Corazzo Shop Jacket as a patch jacket. Unfortunately I had to return it to get a size up (and then I need to figure out how to sow the patches on...).

That's way cool. You'll have to come out again sometime when Brigham's Bees SC is doing a rally and ride with us!

I was just there in June for my nephew's wedding. I made it a priority to stop in the Lounge while I was in the area and picked up some souvenirs for the Buddy & Blur :D The nephew that got married is a twin and the other one rides a Zuma (for now) and is looking to get a dirt bike. He's the one that got me the shirt last summer (now I'm back on topic). Maybe he'll get married soon and I'll have another good excuse to come back. If I can borrow a scoot I would absolutely love to ride with the Bees :!: :shock: do you have club patches :?:
While I was there I kept telling MrsBuzz that we are definately going back someday on the Burgman - you have some awesome scenery and great scooter rides out there.

I don't think we have recent club patches, the club has kind of been reborn recently. If we do get them, I'll be sure to let you know.

PS-If you like it so much, you just might have to move out here. But...then you'd probably have to change your name to MountainBuzz...

I have a Corazzo jacket, a mesh jacket and just got a mechanic shirt from the local Goodwill store (for $2).

I plan on wearing the shirt (I know some folks use shirts but don't wear them), so I am thinking I will be hand washing it as needed...
