but yeah if we have a second run of originals (and subdued versions?) and some square ones I'd eat that shit up
i kind of feel like the big thing about the originals is that not very many people had them. I would understand that if people lost theirs and wanted a replacement, but the OG patch is called the OG patch for a reason. I support a brand new design. Which i will buy, along with a diamond patch.
The brand new design has to be really good for me to make one.
The benefit of the original design is that any left overs I have could be sold off the Airsoft forum. Which I had to do last time because I have to make 100 at a time and I think I maybe sold half of them on the Airsoft forum and the rest had to be auctioned off to the rest of the forum.

[QUOTE=paindoc;46860047]I don't see anywhere to hide it, unless we make a new rectangle or square design. In which case you could hide it in the corner, or vertically on one side I guess[/QUOTE]
Either write the text in a darker shade of red along one of the corners or in the regular red thread color along the white border. It'd be small.
-snip-
I'm starting to quite like the idea of the black/white version. It's probably the simplest design option, and it makes it distinct from the original logo patches.
[QUOTE=Zao Medong;46860192]Here's my design for a subdued rectangle patch. Something like this in 2"x4" would be really nice since most velcro slots are designed with those dimensions in mind and also it's not glaring red.

I wouldn't mind something like this, though isn't the standard flag/rectangle patch 2x3"? I'd dig some OD/Black for my cap.
Standard flags are 2x3 but the actual Velcro on shoulder pockets is 2x4 so you'll see some patches are made to fit into that entire Velcro spot. IR flags are that size I think.
I'm in
I'm in but is there a chance you can get velcro?
dude look at the backing on the patches in the picture

Yeah I went with 2x4 since that's the dimension of IR flags and thus what most velcro panels are sized for.
Read bro
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;46859845]Any patch that gets produced, regardless of design will have velcro though. That's not a negotiable thing really since so much tactical gear uses velcro. The guys who still sew patches on gear are the minority.[/QUOTE]

@3bwii
I'm going to call the place tomorrow and see if I can think of any creative ways to distinguish this production run from the first.
I still think a small "markII" somewhere would be enough
I would love a patch in the OG design or any new design that you guys come up with. Hell, I might come up with a concept for one just for shits.
You could even just break one of the thinner red parts with a white line to distinguish.
I'd be in for one of these patches.

The problem is that being that these are embroidered, adding that extra lettering will most likely add to the cost of the patch. I say you just add a small red stripe to the border on the bottom, subtle, but differentiates it from the OG shit
I'm all for a subtle difference, I'd not want anything to mar the glory of the FP logo.
Gotta keep the O in OG
I'd still like my diamond patch design in a bigger size lol
I'm most likely down for a patch depending on the final design.
what about a shield patch design, sort of like this one i just roughly did up

codemonkey just got b&
Still have any of the 393 diamond patches? I've wanted one for months.
he'll be back tomorrow
I'd rather not have IFAP on my patch. I wear my patches on my jacket daily so explaining what it stands for isn't my idea of fun.
