@Wlemon Cool looking forward to the pics good luck ! where did ya get those groovy patches ?
-
They are from Standard & Strange. Really cool company. It's called North No Name. They make patches on felt. Cool aesthetics, too.

I love these patches as well. I don't know if id rock them but worth starting a collection for even if i didn't sew them on. I heard retailers only get 1 of each patch. Haven't pulled the trigger yet but hopefully soon.
-
Yep. They only got one of each of these patches and I haven't seen any other North American stockist. I am sure they'd go for a lot on the secondary market. I had to hire a friend to help me since the jacket is so heavy.

A very well worn example from Japan:

I had to hire someone. The fabric was too heavy for me to sew. I'll ask her if she's done today. If she is, I'll post here.

Here's some pics of the jacket. Will do some fit pics later in the week.

@neph93 thanks, buddy. I feel like I will have this one around for a lifetime.

I finally got this awesome jacket back. Love it under the Wabash. Sorry if I look tired. New baby!

Why did you choose those patches? They significant to you?

@spitfiredealer I wanted a type 3 jacket with patches. I did my research and found this company in Japan that makes vintage-style patches out of felt. (https://standardandstrange.com/collections/north-no-name?utm_source=Standard+%26+Strange&utm_campaign=13dd372c25-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2017_11_20_COPY_01&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_6cc276019f-13dd372c25-1205001489&mc_cid=13dd372c25&mc_eid=648c17161a). I also wanted to try to go for a pinup girl theme. Other than that and me thinking they look cool, they don't have any specific meaning to me. I was just trying to go for a vintage-style design. Probably not the answer you're looking for!
@neph93 both those words can describe me, though.
