While a lot of bikers put embroidered patches all over their jackets, those who live in warm locations may not wear jackets that often. Even though biker jackets can provide some protection in the case of a crash, they're too hot to wear in some places. Bikers who live in these areas might want to wear a leather vest instead. These vests can be decorated with sew on patches as well, and they look just as amazing. However, because you're adding patches to a vest and not a jacket, you may not be able to fit as many.
With a jacket, you can add rocker patches to the sleeves. However, if you're putting rockers on a vest, you'll probably want to put them on the front pocket area. You can also put large rockers on the back, of course. One of the great things about vests is that large biker patches look really, really nice on the back. While you might only own one or two jackets, you can often find vests for a very reasonable price. This means you don't have to pick between your favorite large patches. You can put one on every vest you own! Since there are a lot of biker patches that match these larger ones, you'll be able to put together some very nice looking vests.
You can always create a biker vest using patches made for your club. You can put your club name, logo, and other information on the back and your name and office, if you hold one, on the front. This way, people know what group you belong to and what your rank is. These vests work really well at rallies or other events where more than one motorcycle group is present.
