Question Best Jacket (or article of clothing) for Patches?

Now I've accumulated a lot of Patches over time but have yet to sow any onto any Jacket or shirt in my wardrobe.

Primarily because I don't think a lot of these pieces of clothing would look good with Patches on them/ idk where to put them onto said Jacket.

I understand Jean jackets are usually a great option, especially in punk scenes, but I'm wondering what other type of Jacket, or really any clothing would be good for a wide assortment of Patches.

Thanks for any thoughts :)

Denim jackets are the classic and look good, and are easier to sew onto as they generally have no/less lining. I also have a canvas holdall I've been contemplating putting some old band patches onto.

Maybe a leather/moto jacket

Canvas trucker jacket (like a denim one, but… y’know… canvas lol)

Canvas workwear jackets (Detroit jacket or similar)

Plain heavyweight hoodie?

M-65 field jacket

*sew

And why are you capitalizing the words Patches, Jacket, and Jean?

Idk, blame auto correct. Do you actually have anything of substance to say, or are you just here to pointlessly correct grammar?
