Well I got my new patches in and had them sewn on my First Gear jacket. The patches are first rate, and the jacket gets lots of acknowledgement. It also makes for good protection with removable padding everywhere and strong exterior to ward off abrassion if you should accidently dismount your scooter while moving.....Angelis

My local boot repair shop declined putting patches on my mesh Raptor jacket - citing the lining as an abstacle to getting the patches sewn on properly.

Anybody else have patches on a lined jacket? (The mesh lining inside is what he was concerned about, as he could not get under the lining to secure the patch to the jacket...

Maybe I need to try another shop.
