the sodom logo on that looks like it is made up of badly-formed croissants

some typically snarky Vice commentary which should probably be ignored

Barry Gordy (Neil S), Friday, 4 July 2014 14:50 (nine years ago) link

nah I like the commentary even if NV was pithier upthread

Vice biting ILX ONCE AGAIN

btw the most remarkable patch on that first jacket is what appears to be "DEICIDE" written in a vaguely Comic Sans font.

not so much a battle jacket as a reflective contemplation jacket

Yoni Loves Chocha (VegemiteGrrl), Sunday, 25 June 2017 18:17 (six years ago) link

I think an Alfred E. Neuman battlejacket is an excellent idea

looks like someone follows this thread (one of my ILM faves it has to be said).

"
BATTLEJACKET # 1 is an independently-produced, limited-edition photographic magazine, with 50+ colour pages dedicated to the art of home-made heavy metal denim. Shot on location at metal gigs in London over 2016 and 2017 by Justin Quirk and published by NO UFOs. Plus the Patron Paperback level.

an extra if you pay over a certain level for a book re Glam Metal :

Has anyone seen a good battle jacket lately?

Thus Spoke Darraghustra (Oor Neechy), Thursday, 15 August 2019 22:39 (four years ago) link

I saw loads of great ones at the King Diamond gig last weekend,

I’m currently making a new battle jacket since my old one from the 90s accidentally ended up in the trash (don’t ask), which has me thinking about some of life’s great questions such as: cut off the collar yes or no? Are studs ever acceptable or trying too hard? Bullet belt on the bottom too much if you already have one on yr jeans?

There was one dude rocking a black tuxedo jacket with patches.
