The Patch

[IPD]

the logo has red in it, steve. you can't get around that. at least with a red border, it matches.

and no, i'm not convinced that a "dye pen" will actually look good on these. worse, it could potentially bleed.

...since no one seems to be adding anything new on input, let me ask what size you guys want. aspect ratio could be fudged a bit without altering the look TOO much. so what length should it be?

It's good, Thadd.

Bleed into black?

Go with the last one you posted. Adding shape detracts from the trademark, as the logo itself is just lettering. Most patches worn by people that have a reason, have a border on them. The red outline is a good way to highlight, and draw the boundaries of the logo. I threw together a rough subdued version, I didn't have time to change the white to grey, it took a minute to replace all the color with an OD because there were highlights all over it.

looks like a morale patch for being deployed to the sandbox. lol!

blanked out though...it looks decent. could be modified to accept other colors in the logo--if the demand is there (people like steve, who don't want red).

I definitely like the last one you posted and yeah I like the border also. Black might look better on a jacket though.

Love it! Somewhere in the in the 11/4"x3" range for front, and 4"x10" for back?

i'm gonna look for one size at a time here. if we start offering a bunch of different sizes, it's going to complicate things just as much as offering a bunch of different colors.

Make a size to fit on ACU tabs with a velcro backing and you'll have a winner for sure. You used the term morale patch, so you know how well those sell. I would have wore one for pics on my tour. We had guys that were Ninja, "that guy" and infidel certified.

i was thinking more like DFDU pen-pocket velcro tab. most guys i know put stuff like their college teams on there though.

p.s.

i still have a 3si static-cling on the side of my DC's. been waiting for a good 3sgto static-cling to replace it with. *HINT HINT ALAN*
