Grim Samedi Metalhead: A person who has special interests to metal music. Collecting merchandise,going to concerts,listening to metal music,audiophilia are the common features amongst metal community. When a person who only listens to death metal says ''metalcore sucks'' should not be understood like a scientific truth. An opinion doesn't have to be accurate.

I really like how you combine all the patchwork, I have one though and I use some patches like Cannibal Corpse, a big one in the back of Bloodbath, Marduk etc...
"Only one genre" is bullshit. I have a Slipknot patch next to an Eluveitie patch, Amon Amarth on the other side, Judas Priest further down and a big Metallica backpatch, so...
@@astraeareminiec669 I suppose so. I mean, like what BMWerewolf says/said, it is yours and you can do whatever the fuck you want with it. It doesn't really matter if it has sports and quotes patches.
My jacket I wear everyday and as a casual thing, has a big immortal back patch, goat head patch on my right side of my chest, a Darkthrone button, and a simplistic Dimmu patch on my right elbow. I love it the way it is, I may add more patches, I may not. I have a lot of patches to put on stuff - but part of me loves it just the way it is and I may move on to another vest/jacket project. I totally agree with you on wanting to keep it very square and organized! I'm like that too. Everything has gotta be just right, I would feel weird having them randomly set and sewed. Anyways, nice videos! Its nice to see metal content on youtube that isn't stuck up and yanno how some metalheads can be. Nice vest by the way!! I like your variety.
I like the neat organized back of yours and most other battle jackets, to me it just looks better, I feel like the front can be more chaotic & still look sick
Growing up I had a sleeveless Denim that went over my leather jacket - now a known as a Battle Vest. I would draw a lot of the bands names or paint them on, as patches were few and far between. Would love to still have it but alas it is gone, nice to see it is something that is alive and well. Always used to love painting on leather jackets, actually made money doing it for a while.
agreed to each his own, for something to be self expressive shouldn't be judged to the point when someone may have to point out that a band doesn't belong there, or worst them telling you "your missing one ". Never heard of the TV show you mention but sounds good will check it out.
How your patches are all square and neat, that looks really good. It shows you pay close attention to detail and take care of what you own. It makes me want to square my patches up haha.
I opted for my vest to be more of a representation of my personality overall. So I have plenty of band patches, but also skulls, comic and Star Wars stuff, and a military patch
I think if I were to make a battle vest, most of the bands I would include would be thrash, melodic death, power, heavy and prog metal. I might also have a giant ass Opeth or Nightwish patch on the back as well, I would love that.
If I ever had the time and patience I'd put a large Metallica back patch, a motor head patch on the front next to a sabbath and Ozzy patch, with a Warlock patch on the other side and maybe a dio and a scorpions patch as well
"I post more pictures of this than most people do of their ugly babies." The best quote I've heard today XD Your vest freakin' rules \m/ Yes, there should be no rules for them. The majority of my patches are metal, but I also have a Bauhaus pin and Black Flag patch on mine, and non music stuff on mine. I may put grunge stuff on mine in the future. My jacket is not perfect and symmetrical, but I don't care.
I'll be 100% honest, I'm not exactly your biggest fan, but I will truly love you forever for recommending Todd And The Book Of Pure Evil.That show is absolutely phenomenal and I really hope that this will draw in new fans and help get The End Of The End made.Cheers \m/
I love your videos that make me laugh. the part about they neatness of your vest and you said piss on you bud I couldnt keep from laughing!!!!!! loved it. keep making videos please.
My vest mostly has thrash metal on it, apart from one patch, I have sepultura and anthrax and shit right next to a Genesis patch, I put the Genesis patch on there because they are the first band that really gave me my strong passion for music, so I totally think it deserves a place on my vest :)
Well... same here, what is on your vest should be your own decision. Sew the Patches on as you like. Fuck rules. You can also craft yourself Patches from bands you like. This is a bit tricky but it works fine with a bit practice. Some Guys said to me that my vest is too clean, too organized and that the vest mustn't be washed if it gets dirty... Well i wash it, I don't want to be smelly or to stay dirty after Festivals... ugh -.-
I have three battle jackets and one battle vest. One of my battle jackets isn't even denim. Most of the logos on my vest/jackets are hand drawn. I'm still constructing the battle vest. I decided to purchase and sew on actual patches for the vest. Some logos are just too damn hard for me to draw and I want some album covers along with the logos. I sure as hell can't draw the album covers. I adhere to know certain way of constructing a vest/jacket, although, I do want to make a jacket entirely about Rush since they are my favorite band. I'm also not adverse to putting nonmetal bands next to metal ones. I hope to find a patch of The Outfield and Brian Setzer. They will be placed next Immortal or Slayer.
I remember reading a comment somewhere about battle jacket rules and that, and this one guy I feel needs to be quoted, unfortunately I don't remember who it was that said it. "Metal ain't never been about rules."
Excally Thank you , I had a friend who told me my patches are lil to separated and u dont have enough patches, I told him it takes time and money for more patches and sewing . I was the first one in my school to have a Jean vest and then my fellow metal heads/rockers followed the tread and then people who dont listen to the music, started wearing Jean jackets with fake patches.
Gonna start putting together a vest as well. Mostly gonna have black metal patches but I'm gonna throw on some other stuff too. Like you said, it's my my vest and I should put what I want on there
Im currently working on making my first battle jacket! I have a big Megadeth patch for the back and a few other small patches. The jacket that im going going to be using has spikes all over the shoulder area, not just on the shoulders. I hope it turns out nice!
Idea for the video: different 'styles' of battle vests for the start: 1. Thrasher. Most common style. A lot of band patches (sometimws you can't even see the denim), often square and organised. Can have some studs and pins, but not too many. 2. Black Metal. Same ase previous, but it must be black denim and have b/w black metal patches.Usually has more spikes and studs than 'Thrasher'. 3. Punky. Studs and spikes all over the place, sometimes all the spare space between the patches are covered with 'metal'. Has band patches and random stuff (skulls, anarchy symbols). Patches are sometimes placed in more chaotic way. Can be handpainted 4. Hard Rock/Glam. Mostly has random patches (skulls, guitars, fire), placed chaoticly, sometimes it looks like one big picture. Can has a lot of studs, but not as many as 'Punky' style. (See the guy from Lost Boys). You can come up with more I'm not saying that these are 'the rules', it's just.. like different subgenres of Metal:) Also you can say about where it came from - biker vests, where every patch has it's meaning.
Even though I'm still working on my Traditional power metal battle vest... I showed what i've done so far...( added some old jewelry) to my sister & she likes it
Mine has band patches and patches of other crap that doesn't have to do music, it pretty much defines my personality honestly, but I do have one patch that is most meaningful and it's a In memory patch of my best friend who passed away last year
I have a big FU skeletal finger on the back and a Pantera logo above it, 20-20 spikes on the shoulders, Metallica Eet Fuk and COB Hatebreeder patches on one side, Powerwolf Blessed and Possessed and Immortal Holocaust patch on the other, all sewn by myself.
lol a "real" battle vest. Your "friend" was tripping. You've inspired me to make my own battle vest/jacket. Been in to metal since I can remember. Have a good day bud🤘
Making one right now. My back patch is Led Zeppelin and has everything from Slayer to Dropkick Murphys to Nirvana on it. Genres all over the place. But its what i like, so its going on there!
So have you seen/what do you think of Onward? I never thought I'd see the day there'd be a Disney/Pixar character in a battle vest! Do you think this makes Metal folks more accepted and less of a threat/more of a good guy? Or do you think this brings Metal more to the vanilla mainstream and may make battle vests trendy? But ya gotta love that brother Barley had a mix tape called Rise to Valhalla. There HAD to be some nerdy Metalheads involved in the making of this.. - Mother Mayhem
I have no Battle Vest.I go to Concerts and Festivals,like I go to Footballmatches.Black Skinnys,Combatboots,Black Hoodie and My Black Bomberjacket (My First Concert was in 1983 the German Band Böhse Onkelz.I was 9 Years Old and I have the Same outfitstyle there like I have today for Concerts.).
Great points man, as always. I find it so hypocritical that metalheads are all about individuality and such, yet they'll tell you what you can and can't do with clothing. Not all metalheads of course, but it is common
i came to this video because i want to make a vest and my friends were like "um do you even know the rules? everybody knows the rules!" which made me feel dumb xD so i clicked this video to see if you talked about the rules but after just finishing it.. FUCK IT! i dont need rules ill make my vest the way i want xD liked and subscribed!
I saw Death Angel, Exodus and Testament a couple weeks ago with a bandmate of mine and we were chilling before the show when one of his friends walked up and said hi. Then he proceeded to look at my vest, point to my Slipknot, Sabaton and Trivium patch and for each one said "Not ok". Later on he was kicked out of the venue. That's karma I guess.
I'm still working on my vest, rn I have Bathory, Obituary, Arch Enemy, a generic skull patch, and a big Emperor back patch. I'm not trying to be that "only one genre" guy tho, I just really love death/black metal.
I'm a metal head but I want to make one of those just for shiggles. Put spikes and studs like a battle vest but instead of izegrim or UNEXPECT or Nile, Nicki (?) Minaj, Will.i.am., and one direction. I just threw up a little.
I have Iron Maiden's "Piece of Mind" on the back of my vest. It was an old shirt I had and it didn't fit me so I cut the picture out and patched it on there.
If a little criticism is welcome... I appreciate the recommendations at the end of your videos, but I've only been subscribed for a few hours and already figured that it's something you like to do. Instead of reminding us you like to share some great stuff with your viewers, give that segment a name, or make a catchphrase. Lot's of video makers (metal heads and normal people) all do similar things, but your channel should be like your battle vest. Uniquely yours.
I use thread but I've seen people use dental floss. I prefer thread because it can be black and it blends better while dental floss is white and shows more.
I agree 100% man i have everything from Marduk and Goatwhore on mine to black flag and Bruce Springsteen i even Have a harry potter button with doby on it
I only have 2 personal rules on battle jackets. The bands got to be metal at least hard Rock (ACDC, Led Zeppelin, etc) and the patches should be real embroidered patches. (I hate printed patches but that's me). But no rules on construction at all, including the myth you must have a monstrous back patch. I personally only have a mid size actual embroidered fear of the dark patch as my center patch, bigger than the rest for sure but doesn’t take up the whole back of the vest either.
Hey man! I'm a metalcore/deathcore fan but I still like to watch your videos to get to know your point of view on the topics i like. May you make a video about specific song recommendations you really like, I'm up to anything, black, deathmetal, brutal or whatever genre you want to talk about, I'm always looking for new stuff to listen to, whether it's about instrumental complexity or really high quality vocals. Thanks! Also if anyone want to recommend specific songs right below my comment I'd appreciate it!
hell yeah dude, i gotta afree, i have always wanted a battle vest, but in reality i suppose you could say i have a battle leather. i have a leather jacket ive had for 24 years now. and that thing has all kinds of shit on it. it weight twice what w typical leather jacket weighs. but its also adorned with spikes, piramyd and round, chains,( yep, im THAT guy) patches out the wazoo, and so many buttons, i dont even know where some of them came from. there is all kinds of shit on that jacket, i had the cuffs airbrushed silver years ago. but it was always my little second skin. i just wish i could squeeze my middle aged fat ass into it still. damn i miss the good ol days. keep up the great work man.
Always thought a big back pat ch of Black Sabbath's Headless Cross, Dehumanizer or Cross Purposes would be so Fuckin Cool same as a Judas Priest Painkiller one too \m/
Still putting together my vest. I have the same view of square patches that are neat and still look good, shame finding a D.R.I patch is turning out to be hard.
if you like todd and the book of pure evil watch a film called deathgasm. sounds like a very similar idea and its one of my favourite films. Filled with great tunes as well.
My vest is still young and naked but I have a big back patch of KoRn which kinda makes me feel weird because I listen to a lot of black and death metal like Mayhem and Bloodbath and a lot of doom like candlemass X,D my vest may be young and naked but it's probably misleading
I think the same about my vest sometimes, I have Maiden Backpatch, but I listen more to Slayer. In the end Eddie just looks better then Slayer's Eagle.
BMW,I'm still working on my battle vest... But,the design of the vest makes it impossible for me to have a back patch on it.. So,I'm placing each of the patches across the back & left to right/right to left..
I think it's funny when people ask me if I bought my battle vest, like when I'm at grocery stores or out and about running errands. I'm like dude, no, the vest didn't just come this way..I created it. PS I love Todd and the Book of Pure Evil ! \m/
"I post more pictures of this than most people do of their ugly babies" I lost it after that XD
💀💀💀💀
Sewing is metal as fuck
+Terror Regime indeed
To me there is only one rule with battle vests:
Do whatever the f*** you want. You're the one wearing it.
Metalhead have to be openminded, like you BMwerewolf
And me?
İ will sew a picture of 2pac between cannibal corpse and sodom.
hahaha my duude!!
lol can you even imagine
+Sabreal Saets lol Hey man, like he said it represents you and I'm a metalhead too but we don't all ONLY listen to metal

welurkintheforests theforests BALL Eyez On Me.
mine has the butchered at birth back patch...some people at school are scared to talk to me now, especially administration
I wished I did that when I was your age. Wouldve saved me some trouble of telling people leave me the fuck alone
I really like how you combine all the patchwork, I have one though and I use some patches like Cannibal Corpse, a big one in the back of Bloodbath, Marduk etc...
I feel the same way about tattoos, it’s my tattoo, I didn’t get it for you.
"Only one genre" is bullshit. I have a Slipknot patch next to an Eluveitie patch, Amon Amarth on the other side, Judas Priest further down and a big Metallica backpatch, so...
We didn't ask for permission to make our vests, we did what the fuck we wanted! Mine will be all over the place once I sew all the new ones on.
Can sports patches & quotes be added?
curious
@@astraeareminiec669 I suppose so. I mean, like what BMWerewolf says/said, it is yours and you can do whatever the fuck you want with it. It doesn't really matter if it has sports and quotes patches.
Beside my Metal Patches I got a Pink Floyd, a Led Zeppelin III and a Jimmy Hendrix Patch on my Vest.
My jacket I wear everyday and as a casual thing, has a big immortal back patch, goat head patch on my right side of my chest, a Darkthrone button, and a simplistic Dimmu patch on my right elbow.

I think if I were to make a battle vest, most of the bands I would include would be thrash, melodic death, power, heavy and prog metal. I might also have a giant ass Opeth or Nightwish patch on the back as well, I would love that.
You reaaaaally really remind me of Fenriz. Especially the way you talk. That's... I don't know, strange, but I like it.
I like you!your voice is very pleasant and the way you put your opinions out there is nice too!
If I ever had the time and patience I'd put a large Metallica back patch, a motor head patch on the front next to a sabbath and Ozzy patch, with a Warlock patch on the other side and maybe a dio and a scorpions patch as well
Right on man just gonna make my first battle/horror vest thanks for the advice.Earned a subscriber
I'm planning on making my own vest very soon. So stoked to do so!

I used to sing in thrash metal band when I was in high school.
+welurkintheforests theforests well I play drums and violin.
Also, I have the same picture, but it looks darker, I guess.

i sooooo wanna make a battle jacket
It's pretty crazy about the guy that gave you crap about your jacket. I had to laugh when you said he didn't have one or the ability to make one. 😈
Your a likeable dude respect man! Mark UK
I remember reading a comment somewhere about battle jacket rules and that, and this one guy I feel needs to be quoted, unfortunately I don't remember who it was that said it. "Metal ain't never been about rules."

I love how you get real canadian when you're ranting haha
Fuck yeah Todd and the Book of Pure Evil, great show!
"Well piss on you bub." xD gets me every time!
I'm planning on making one with punk, rock, metal and heavy metal on there. I just want what I enjoy on there.
Gonna start putting together a vest as well. Mostly gonna have black metal patches but I'm gonna throw on some other stuff too. Like you said, it's my my vest and I should put what I want on there
I must find that Todd and the Book of Pure Evil patch 🤤
Im currently working on making my first battle jacket! I have a big Megadeth patch for the back and a few other small patches. The jacket that im going going to be using has spikes all over the shoulder area, not just on the shoulders. I hope it turns out nice!
Dave mustaine is my god
***** All hail the mighty Dave mustaine!

You can come up with more
I'm not saying that these are 'the rules', it's just.. like different subgenres of Metal:)
Also you can say about where it came from - biker vests, where every patch has it's meaning.
Also Hard Rock/Glam battle vests can be very colorful due to these bands having colorful logos and album covers.
That's a really cool vest man keep up on that good work
Your videos are great man! Keep it metal \m/
Freakin love your videos and your attitude🤘💀
I just want to make Megadeth share the vest with Dissection
You have a Todd and the Bok of Pure Evil patch Holy Balls
Dude ur battle vest is awesome
Even though I'm still working on my Traditional power metal battle vest...
I showed what i've done so far...( added some old jewelry) to my sister & she likes it
Mine has band patches and patches of other crap that doesn't have to do music, it pretty much defines my personality honestly, but I do have one patch that is most meaningful and it's a In memory patch of my best friend who passed away last year
I liked the whole video he was accurate on so many points
I have a big FU skeletal finger on the back and a Pantera logo above it, 20-20 spikes on the shoulders, Metallica Eet Fuk and COB Hatebreeder patches on one side, Powerwolf Blessed and Possessed and Immortal Holocaust patch on the other, all sewn by myself.
i started making my battle vest while watching
Todd and the Book of Pure Evil looks cool! Thanks dude Mark UK
lol a "real" battle vest. Your "friend" was tripping. You've inspired me to make my own battle vest/jacket. Been in to metal since I can remember. Have a good day bud🤘
Making one right now. My back patch is Led Zeppelin and has everything from Slayer to Dropkick Murphys to Nirvana on it. Genres all over the place. But its what i like, so its going on there!
I have theme vests. I have thrash metal theme vests only, BUT i listen still various metal and heavy metal genres.
So have you seen/what do you think of Onward?
I never thought I'd see the day there'd be a Disney/Pixar character in a battle vest!
Do you think this makes Metal folks more accepted and less of a threat/more of a good guy?
Or do you think this brings Metal more to the vanilla mainstream and may make battle vests trendy?
But ya gotta love that brother Barley had a mix tape called Rise to Valhalla. There HAD to be some nerdy Metalheads involved in the making of this..
- Mother Mayhem
MJ Gutzmann you should comment this on his newest video, so it gets more attention.
I want to make a vest! That's so fucking cool.
Yesss my vest is gonna have Iron Maiden's Fear of the Dark back patch, just waiting to get home to dark wash my denim 😍
We have the same Gorgoroth patch in the exact same spot.
Cheers.
Congrats on 2,000 subscribers
I have no Battle Vest.I go to Concerts and Festivals,like I go to Footballmatches.Black Skinnys,Combatboots,Black Hoodie and My Black Bomberjacket (My First Concert was in 1983 the German Band Böhse Onkelz.I was 9 Years Old and I have the Same outfitstyle there like I have today for Concerts.).
Great points man, as always. I find it so hypocritical that metalheads are all about individuality and such, yet they'll tell you what you can and can't do with clothing. Not all metalheads of course, but it is common
it's supposed to be unique, that's like the whole point, so what if yours is extra unique, the important thing is that you like it
my battle vest just happens to be a leather club vest
i came to this video because i want to make a vest and my friends were like "um do you even know the rules? everybody knows the rules!" which made me feel dumb xD so i clicked this video to see if you talked about the rules but after just finishing it.. FUCK IT! i dont need rules ill make my vest the way i want xD liked and subscribed!
TBMP.mid same here lol love this guys talk
TBMP.mid exactly there are no rules in a battle vest its custom/personal
I saw Death Angel, Exodus and Testament a couple weeks ago with a bandmate of mine and we were chilling before the show when one of his friends walked up and said hi. Then he proceeded to look at my vest, point to my Slipknot, Sabaton and Trivium patch and for each one said "Not ok". Later on he was kicked out of the venue. That's karma I guess.
I love todd and the book of pure evil i watched that shit 24-7 god i wish theyd make a third season
Rules and Blackmetal collide.
I love you're vest great job
I'm still working on my vest, rn I have Bathory, Obituary, Arch Enemy, a generic skull patch, and a big Emperor back patch. I'm not trying to be that "only one genre" guy tho, I just really love death/black metal.
It would be funny to see someone with a battle vest covered in shitty pop groups. Justin Bieber, Alisha Keys, and Justin Timberlake. Lol.
They exist. In the world of bastardizing heavy metal, it's becoming a thing.
I'm a metal head but I want to make one of those just for shiggles. Put spikes and studs like a battle vest but instead of izegrim or UNEXPECT or Nile, Nicki (?) Minaj, Will.i.am., and one direction. I just threw up a little.
+David Hollingshead Lol!!!
David Hollingshead
Did you just combine the worlds "shits and giggles" to make shiggles?
I'm starting to see it in the UK. I see people taking the clothing that metalheads would wear and wear it but all they like is pop. Its weird.
I have Iron Maiden's "Piece of Mind" on the back of my vest. It was an old shirt I had and it didn't fit me so I cut the picture out and patched it on there.
dude we have the exact same back patch 😂
If a little criticism is welcome...
I appreciate the recommendations at the end of your videos, but I've only been subscribed for a few hours and already figured that it's something you like to do. Instead of reminding us you like to share some great stuff with your viewers, give that segment a name, or make a catchphrase.
Lot's of video makers (metal heads and normal people) all do similar things, but your channel should be like your battle vest. Uniquely yours.
What do you sew with? I've heard of some people using dental floss as it's stronger than thread.
I use thread but I've seen people use dental floss. I prefer thread because it can be black and it blends better while dental floss is white and shows more.
Thanks!
+TheDrunkenNarwhal If you want strength, get some nylon thread. It comes in all colors and it's super strong.
might as well use fishing wire
dental floss is more a crust punk thing, buddy.
I think your vest is awesome!!!
Hell I got a planet express patch right behind the collar on mine.
I agree 100% man i have everything from Marduk and Goatwhore on mine to black flag and Bruce Springsteen i even Have a harry potter button with doby on it
I only have 2 personal rules on battle jackets. The bands got to be metal at least hard Rock (ACDC, Led Zeppelin, etc) and the patches should be real embroidered patches. (I hate printed patches but that's me). But no rules on construction at all, including the myth you must have a monstrous back patch. I personally only have a mid size actual embroidered fear of the dark patch as my center patch, bigger than the rest for sure but doesn’t take up the whole back of the vest either.
my vest is neat and symetrical too
Hey man! I'm a metalcore/deathcore fan but I still like to watch your videos to get to know your point of view on the topics i like. May you make a video about specific song recommendations you really like, I'm up to anything, black, deathmetal, brutal or whatever genre you want to talk about, I'm always looking for new stuff to listen to, whether it's about instrumental complexity or really high quality vocals. Thanks! Also if anyone want to recommend specific songs right below my comment I'd appreciate it!
hell yeah dude, i gotta afree, i have always wanted a battle vest, but in reality i suppose you could say i have a battle leather. i have a leather jacket ive had for 24 years now. and that thing has all kinds of shit on it. it weight twice what w typical leather jacket weighs. but its also adorned with spikes, piramyd and round, chains,( yep, im THAT guy) patches out the wazoo, and so many buttons, i dont even know where some of them came from. there is all kinds of shit on that jacket, i had the cuffs airbrushed silver years ago. but it was always my little second skin. i just wish i could squeeze my middle aged fat ass into it still. damn i miss the good ol days. keep up the great work man.
Always thought a big back pat ch of Black Sabbath's Headless Cross, Dehumanizer or Cross Purposes would be so Fuckin Cool same as a Judas Priest Painkiller one too \m/
Awesome video man
If you haven't seen the movie Deathgasm, I highly recommend it!
Still putting together my vest. I have the same view of square patches that are neat and still look good, shame finding a D.R.I patch is turning out to be hard.
+SeriouslyMikey Check out UKRPatcher on facebook. They'll make a patch of any image you send and work really quick.
I had to take my battle vest apart ,because the vest itself is two sizes too big for me to waar
if you like todd and the book of pure evil watch a film called deathgasm. sounds like a very similar idea and its one of my favourite films. Filled with great tunes as well.
My vest is still young and naked but I have a big back patch of KoRn which kinda makes me feel weird because I listen to a lot of black and death metal like Mayhem and Bloodbath and a lot of doom like candlemass X,D my vest may be young and naked but it's probably misleading
Well, as Blackmetalwerewolf said your vest can have whatever bands you want on it
I think the same about my vest sometimes, I have Maiden Backpatch, but I listen more to Slayer. In the end Eddie just looks better then Slayer's Eagle.
+Fangbanger if your posters,pics etc dont reflect who you like today,cant you just take them off and buy new ones? Just saying...
+Fangbanger just take them off your wall, sell them, or just save up for new posters. You can't be broke forever

I bet he's just a poser.
I wish i have something like this
BMW,I'm still working on my battle vest...
But,the design of the vest makes it impossible for me to have a back patch on it..
So,I'm placing each of the patches across the back & left to right/right to left..
I think it's funny when people ask me if I bought my battle vest, like when I'm at grocery stores or out and about running errands. I'm like dude, no, the vest didn't just come this way..I created it. PS I love Todd and the Book of Pure Evil ! \m/
