wondering how many patches fit on one jacket
what was the english word for "Kutte" again???

 

[Carpathian_Wolf]

Kutte..kutte...ehm...?


I think you can get many on but depends on the size of them

 

[Lucretia]

yeah, Kutte. Thats the German word for a jeans jacket without sleeves and patches on it
Somewhere I´ve heard the translation but I forgot it

 

[Carpathian_Wolf]

Ah yes sleevless jackets!

 

[Lucretia]

ehm... also when there are patches on it??
*is stupid and should be slapped for lack of english knowledge*

 

[Carpathian_Wolf]

Patched Sleeveless Demin Jackets I think!

 

[Lucretia]

LOL OK. You don´t wanna tell me or there is actually no special word in english. I´ll have to say "Patched Sleeveless Demin Jackets" then, obviously
and now I shut up cos I don´t have such a thing at all!

 

[Carpathian_Wolf]

Actually i really dont think there is a special word in english !

 

[Lucretia]

OK. Actually I found now what I was talking about and that was just the direct translation of "Kutte" which means "cowl" or "frock", but I think these words are not used in connection with patches and metal, right?

 

[Carpathian_Wolf]

Nope! The relate to something else!

 

[Lucretia]

welll...then at least you´ve learned an important German word now

 

[flo]

you can get quite alot of patches on one jacket, if it is big enaugh. my aim is to get 100 patches on my jacket!
making a good patch jacket is really a kind of science... i call it "kuttologie" ... you have to take sooo many things into concideration! do the colours of the patches fit together? do the different styles fit together? do you have a good balance between famous bands and underground? how can you get as many patches as possible on little space? questions, questions, questions....
at the moment i have to get some more patches to finish my jacket. i still have got a cool violent force patch here which i haven't sewed on jet and i am waiting for a good overkill patch (i payed the money for it more than a month ago and it still hasn't arrived! >(). and i hope that i will soon manage to send mike the money for some more cool patches... becasue there is still to few good NWoBHM stuff on my jacket!
