Fire and Rescue, Fire Department Biker Patch

This is a great biker patch to give to your fireman friends. The skull has a lot of personality and I like the way the fireman's helmet sits on it. The front of the helmet even has a realistic patch that says "Fire Dept." and FD. Fireman tools make a Maltese cross in back of the skull. Background flames give it a lot of passion and dept. I also love the shape of patch.

It measures 5 inches square, so it's a good size. It's small enough that you can tuck it a lot of places, but it's big enough so that it won't disappear. The bright red color will also make it stand out.

Give it as a gift to your fav fireman or wear it in tribute. Either way it will look great. Click Here to check it out.

Dead Men Tell No Tales Biker Skull Patch

Don't wait for Talk Like a Pirate Day to put this pirate skull patch on your leather jacket or denim vest. It looks like an antique paper scroll with Dead Men Tell No Tales written in ornate script on the top and bottom. This frames a pirate skull wearing a bandana, gold earring and eyepatch. I think the skull and crossbones on the eyepatch is a nice touch. He also has a few yellow or are they gold teeth?

I also like the crossbones below the skull that are made from a six shooter and large knife. It really gives this pirate crossbones patch a lot of character.

As you can see, this is a very high quality embroidered patch that has lots of great details. In addition to the pirate skull and skull and crossbones, notice how the antique and distressed scroll is lots of different colors. The patch has a lot of depth and rich appearance because of them.

It comes in two sizes: large and small. The large patch measures 11 inches wide and 12.5 inches tall. The medium patch measures 4.5 inches wide and 5 inches tall. You can either iron or sew it on leather or cloth. You can buy it from Quality Biker Patches.

US Marines Logo Patch

Once a Marine always a Marine. If you've proudly served as one, then you'll proudly wear this patriotic Marines patch. It doesn't matter if you served in WWII, Viet Nam, Iraq or the many other places that Marines have protected our way of life.

This Marines logo patch is very high quality and has lots of patriotic details. The first thing you notice is the globe in the center that signifies the many places where Marines have fought. An American bald eagle sits on top of it, with its outstretched wings. An anchor and rope winds its way behind the globe. The entire patch is edged in a thick Marine red border. It will really make it pop no matter where to decide to place it.

This US Marines patch measure 3 inches wide by 3 inches tall. So you can sew or iron it almost anywhere on your jacket or shirt. It would also look great on a hat or wallet. Buy it here.

75th Anniversary Daytona Biker T-Shirts

Thinking about Daytona Bike Week is one of the things that gets us through the cold and snowy New England winter. My husband grew up 30 miles west of Daytona in a small town called Aster. He has fond memories of racing on the beach. It's hard to believe that this is the 75th Anniversary of Daytona Bike Week.

I found these high-quality Daytona Bike Week t-shirts online that have unique Bike Week designs on them. The t-shirt designer started with Hanes Beefy-T tees. These have a much heavier hand to them, than the flimsy tees that many other t-shirt sellers use. He then heat presses his designs on them. They feel really secure and don't fall off or peel off.

Many of the biker designs he uses have traditional patriotic themes with items such as eagles, the American flag, and the POW-MIA symbol. However, I have to admit that I am partial to the tropical beach biker design that I am showing you above. The motorcycle is surrounded by a palm tree and brilliantly warm sunrise. The text above it says 75th Annual Bike Week. The text below says Daytona Beach, Fl 2016.

The front of the biker t-shirt has the same logo, but much smaller. It sits over the top left portion of the t-shirt. The biker designs look great on the black. In addition to tees, denim sleeveless biker shirts are also offered. They have the same motorcycle designs on them as the tees.

The t-shirt designer didn't forget women. You'll find the tropical design that I like so much on high-quality women's biker tees as well. So if you want, you can coordinate your look! He also added some very sexy and pretty pink biker designs that are perfect for a woman's wardrobe. The women's t-shirts come in both crew and v-necks.


Any biker will love wearing these tees. Even if you can't get to Daytona, it's fun to think about fun in the Florida sun

Laughing Biker Guy Skeleton Embroidered Biker Patch

This laid back skeleton biker guy patch cracks me up. He's got a big smile and great expression on his face. I can even imagine a twinkle in his eye. His body language is just one of the guys hanging out playing pool or a hand of poker. His arms are crossed in front of his body. You can almost seem him leaning against his bike or the pool table

A skull patch is often intimidating and fierce. This biker skull patch is downright friendly. He's just the kind of guy that you'd want to go riding with or hangout with.

It's filled with rich details. The biker jacket collar is popped, the pockets have zippers and the cuff is perfect. His red skull cap has crossbones. Behind him is an 8 ball, ace of spades and a pair of dice.

This is a high-quality embroidered biker life patch. It comes in two sizes. The large size measures 12 inches wide and long. The medium size is 4 inches wide and long. You can either sew or iron it on.

Dreamcatcher Wolf Patch is Full of Native American Symbols

I find Native American spirituality really interesting and inspiring. So when I saw this embroidered dreamcatcher wolf patch, I was immediately drawn to it. It features a howling wolf and a dreamcatcher with three feathers hanging below it.

When a Native-American child is born, traditional grandparents make a dreamcatcher for him or her. They believe that the web of the dreamcatcher will catch bad dreams and hold it until the morning light destroys it. However, the holes let the good dreams through. Then then travel down the feathers to the mind of the child. Today, many adults use dreamcatchers as symbol of protection.

Wolfs are also a mystical animal in many cultures. Listening to them howl at night is a very eerie and fascinating experience. Bikers who consider themselves a lone wolf, will also feel right at home wearing this patch.

This howling wolf patch comes in two sizes. The large size is 12 inches square and the medium size is 6 inches square.  While they can be sewn or ironed on any cloth or textile, the golden tones of this patch would look particularly good on brown leather. You can buy it at Quality Biker Patches, one of my favorite places to find unique motorcycle patches.
