Punk Patches - Tumblr Posts
Freaking genuis
All the patches I did for my Poser Jacket. This is the best thing I've ever thought of.
Amen. And can we stop harassing people for not being "punk enough" in general? It's almost as if, in order to be part of any community, you're expected to be the most extreme version to qualify to use the term or something. There's people in this culture still learning and there's people in this culture who agree with some aspects and disagree with others and that should be okay- ESPECIALLY in punk culture. Punk is literally based on being weird, not fitting in, and ACCEPTANCE of those oddities. You'd think if any culture wouldn't gatekeep, it would be us. YET SOMEHOW its one of the most elitist riddled groups of people I've seen! It's wild!
Hm. Might make a longer rant on this later.
Ngl I think one major problem is that people on here and online in general seem to think that patches always have to be punk and they.... Don't
Punk doesn't own patches, people can make them of anything they want.
Just because somebody is making a patch doesn't mean they're a part of the subculture.
Making patches is literally just a form of art like any other
Stop harassing people over their patches not being "punk enough" because for starters that isn't a thing and that might not even be their intention anyways
This battle outfit is SICK!
outfit pics i guess
This is my WIP vest. My partner @heyleemickeygee made the blahaj patch. Looking forward to putting more on it.
I wanna make some anime patches for animes I think are just a bit punk for my crust pants but I can’t pick one for neon genesis (ima do “see you space cowboy” for cowboy bebop)
my patch skirt! a hefty boy. ive been working on this for over two years now!! most of the patches are handmade, and the little brown pouch with the beetle is handsewn as well.
jacket is done !! u cant rlly see it but the tribe 8 and boot licker patches r under the hood + homomilita on the bottom side
I know i said i wouldnt start selling my diy stuff anytime soon but if all goes according to my evil sceme i should have a few months of free time on my hands.
Current items and prices im thinking off, the pricerangers are because some items take more time and effort than others:
Stenciled patches (sharper colors and will fade a bit being machine washed): 5€
Linocut patches (less bright colors and will not survive being machine washed): 4€
Tiny stamped patches (also will not survive the washing machine): 2-3€
Backpatches (will fade a bit in the wasing machine): 8€
Beercap buttons: 4€
Simple beaded/kandi bracelets (with letterbeads): 3-5€
T-shirts/croptops/tanktops (base will be thrifted): 15-30€
Chokers/cuffs (made from denim/fabric): 20-40€
I will most likely be selling using vinted, (unless i find a better way to sell these) and shipping within the EU. I will keep my dms open so we can arrange something else if needed, and be open for commissions/custom items.
some diy stuff i made under the cut for reference, also check out my blog under the #my stuff tag to find more
