Components of Motorbike Patches


 
Business
Also called an insignia or colors, members of motorcycle clubs wear patches on cut off vests to show they belong to a club and where their territory is. It is flying their colors. Bikers have been wearing patches like this since the 1960s and adopted it from the military where patches originate from, used to display a soldier's regimental colors. It is not just bikers and the military though, the scouts, police, and many other organizations and groups use custom patches to show membership, achievements, rank and such. The shape and components of the design for motorcycle vest patches all have some significance.

Components that make up the patch

MC – Often displayed to the side it stands for a motorcycle club.

Colors – At the center of the patch this displays the colors and the logo the club uses to represent their club. It can be anything, it is designed by the club themselves or you might ask for design help from a custom patch maker. It could be elaborate or something very simple like a skull.

Top rocker – At the top of the patch it denotes the club and usually curves down slightly towards the bottom rocker.

Bottom rocker – At the bottom of the patch it mirrors the top and curves up and here is where the location or territory is shown on motorbike patches.

Individualization is important

Since these patches are worn with great pride and are an important symbol of them and their motorcycle club, it is essential that motorcycle vest patches are unique. With all the bikers there are, it is normal that there is cross over in design and colors used, but there needs to be something in each one that makes them special. These are their identifier.

You need to use an experienced custom patch makers that focus on important details, otherwise, your patch ends up being too close to something that is already being used. It is also worth noting that a good path maker must take into account that some patches will be for small-sized jackets, some for XXXL jackets, so while the sizing needs to work it should not affect the look, they need to still be the same patch.

Using patches to create a bond

Patches are a great way to create a bond between members, whether it is of a biker club or another organization. In some cases, they are used to show territory so that rival clubs know to stay away, but in general biking clubs are not all like gangs. In fact, most motorcyclists wearing colors are family men and women.  Motorbike patches are a source of great pride. People in the same club help each other out, socialize, ride together, and have strong bonds. To differentiate themselves from so-called outlaw groups, some clubs including Harley-Davidson use a one-piece patch rather than a three-piece patch in an effort to do better with their community.
