How to Attach Skull Patches: Leather Vests vs. Denim Jackets
To keep your skull and skeleton emblems securely attached to your riding apparel at high highway speeds, use the proper attachment method for your specific garment material:
- Sewing on Leather: Never use a hot iron on leather apparel, as high heat will shrink, dry out, or permanently damage the natural hide. Position your patch temporarily using tape or leather-safe adhesive, and sew along the outer border with a heavy-duty needle and strong nylon thread. Be sure to sew through the leather layer only on lined garments so you do not block access to internal storage or concealed carry pockets.
- Ironing on Denim: For denim vests, jackets, or heavy canvas shirts, utilizing the iron-on backing is straightforward. Position your patch, cover the embroidery with a thin towel or pressing cloth to shield the thread, and apply firm, even pressure with a hot iron for 20 to 30 seconds. For a permanent hold that won't lift at the corners over time, we always suggest adding a few reinforcement stitches around the edges.
