Are metal vests effay?

I posted mine in the patches thread as well

like >>12391278 said, if it has few patches or a well tough out theme, they can look really good. I only wear mine to gigs, wearing one in any other setting will usually make you look like an autist.

Backside of my vest, Wiegedood and Noose are kind of embroidered. I wear the Bomber on a everyday basis, but the Anon up there is correct, vests look kind of autistic if not worn on concerts or festivals.

>>12391979

To be fair metal is the most autistic synchronized noise that is currently mass produced.

>my culture
>4 fa tabs open

I've always detested people who cover themselves in patches -- if they listen to Metal, that is. Punk gets a pass.

And I used to be huge into Metal; I just thought it looked too attention-seeking.

Scrub question: Where can I get custom made patches in the UK? The only sites I've come across seem to only do cheap business-ey "your name here" trash.

>>12392477
agreed, metal jackets and most metal themed clothing always comes off as a bit cheesy, punk patches tend to feel more genuine, if that makes sense?

It also doesn't help that metalheads generally dress horribly, whereas punk has a fashion element and can look really good on certain people.

>>12392477
Yeah, I mean I'm huge into metal and I like a lot of punk music, punk and metal go together like PB&J. I have both metal and punk patches, and if some metalheads don't like punk fuck em

>>12391990
somehow girls can wear them in public without looking retarded, but like 90% of this board is male, so that is a different topic.

Sure is underage in here . . . .

>>12392474
I don't understand your objection
Are you saying 4 tabs is too much?
Why? Whats wrong with my browsing habits?
Are you saying metal and /fa do not mix?
Do you understand anything about fashion or musical sub cultures?
What is that pic portraying?
Are you sweating cos you're dumb and hope no one notices?

>>12392477
>>12392673
Wow, double standards and admitting that punk is mad superficial.

>>12392673
Most punks I know are annoying edgy retards, most metal guys are cringy numales, but at least they are nice and you can have a normal conversation with them.

my whole problem with punks, atleast here on the west coast, LA area and beaches, is that the punk scene is full of addicts/ex-addicts, and they have the personality of a turd, whereas the metal scene is full of some really cool and chatty people. I know, its not quite fair, its a generalization from about 2-3 years of partaking in both scenes, but that's my opinion. It's too bad, I really like the typical punk fashion

>>12392036

dried what?

a dude at my school has a really sick one. basically a white lab coat with a lot of fabric patches. but then again he often wears a fucking mlp t-shirt underneath it so idk

Punk jacket > Metal jackets

>>12395736
damn i work in a lab why haven't i thought of this before.

>>12396419
too many studs for my taste, also no patches. I'm not a huge fan of it, but it may work for some outfits.

>>12396572
Black straight leg jeans. Black t shirt. Bullet belt. Engineer boots. Very homo biker style.

band patches can be cool when applied tastefully, but yours look like you ordered them all online from the same website and ironed (lol) them on all at the same time. When you're putting patches on a jacket/vest/whatever, you want to treat it like an art piece and try and be highly original, subtle, and dynamic. Not just lay a bunch of metal bands that everyone knows on every inch of your jacket like a fucking grid. With patches, less is more. Not trying to hurt your feelings, just trying to help. Also iron-ons are gay even when sewed on. Personally I always do nice, even, diagonal stitches with dental floss.

also the cargo shorts are nah

>>12391268
Nah. Wearing anything that represents something not created solely by you is not /fa/. It's okay to like a band but wearing clothing with their name on it makes you look like you're just sucking their dick.

>>12398066
Good bands. Terrible layout. Also in my shitty opinion, too much sloppy dental floss whipstich looks immature

>he listens to Ghost and Kvelertak

>>12398237
yea it's too much but I see the point. I use a little red stitching in my patches to mix up the look a bit. Never tried floss

>>12399057
red is a good contrast color, you can use cinnamon floss for this, floss is strong, but sometimes it looks ok, and sometimes it looks like shit. i usually just match the color of the band patch

always wondered if rock stars sew their own stuff. I doubt it, Lemmy had a LOT of patched clothes

>>12398368
The first two Ghost Records are great imho. And I still like Kvelertak, but I wouldn't buy the back patch again. My vest is 5 years old by now, so there are many patches from bands I don't really listen to any more.

>>12399080
I know later in life he had custom clothes made for him, but back in the early days it was prolly diy

I've never seen someone so easily triggered

what the fuck

I have a vest too, mainly death and black metal patches. Next time I go to a thrash concert and see all the guys with vests I'll imagine they go on /fa/ and are concerned about how they look despite their "Who cares about clothes dude I'm not a faggot" attitude

I'm from /pol/ just checking the board out btw

they are pretentious and not particularly aesthetic

>>12404657

I've shared mine already, I own the one with the Kvelertak and Weakling backpatch as well as the bomber with the Urfaust backpatch

>>12404718
i mean that towards the pollock whom you were referring to

>>12398368
>Ghost
decent, especially on first album. I only like a couple of songs from their later ones.
>Kverlertak
it's like black metal for normies. Who would want this?

>>12404718
What's the name of the band with the eye, chalice and sickle? The round one on your arm.

>>12405151
Urfaust, like the backpatch. I love the band ant the patch looks so good that it'd be a shame not to use it, so I've got two Urfaust patches on the jacket.

>>12405143
this. First album was great, with Papa Emeritus as this creepy old dude, second album was decent too, but after that one the band got shitty. Cringy fanbase, mediocre songs and the slight black metal vibe from the first record got completely lost.
Kvelertak patch is one of my older ones, got it back in 2012. I still enjoy the first two records and it's good music for partying with normie friends, so I keep it. But more for a sentimental value then the actual music.

>>12406071
Ghost frontman is apparently a greedy little nu male cunt

>>12392492

Spotted the underage triggered libtard
>pls be a troll

>>12406280
yes, he is. But as the Ghost frontman he dressed up as a satanic version of the pope for the first two albums, while the rest of the band was just called 'nameless Ghouls'. They are still called nameless Ghouls, but have names now, like water and air, which is pretty fucking retarded.

I've met a few west coast punks (They're rare on the east) and they were all pretty chill. I feel like on the East they're really try-hard, or that just might be my local scene. Which is mainly just beatdown hardcore douchers. Denver though has a solid ass scene.

soo the key to getting these to fit is to get them one size smaller?

>>12410720
>get a jacket that won't fit on your juicy arms

I wear medium and got my jacket in medium. Just make sure, that the body part of the jacket isn't so large that you can wrap it around your body twice.

>>12410720
I have mine fit well. Too Baggy looks like bad
About same as t shirt size
