Oh, the fashion conundra you face as a metalhead. Lately, I've been working on a solution to three heavy metal fashion problems:
So, I'm making a patched denim jacket (also known as a "battlejacket"). Which will allow me to flaunt my fondness for at least a score of bands on a single mid-weight garment. Or out myself as a huge metal dork. Or both.
Before I started, I did a bit of searching around the internet to see how other people put their jackets together. I thought I'd put together my own post on how I did this.
( Pictures and stuff below the cut )
- My wardrobe cannot accomodate a band T-shirt for every band that I like.
- It is not possible to wear all of one's band T-shirts at once.
- The leather jacket that I've been wearing to most shows is a godsend in San Francisco winters, but a bit too warm for summer.
