Powell Peralta - Large Winged Ripper Patch

The Authority... Skater Version

Take a stand against authority with the Powell Peralta Skateboard Police Patch. This isn't just a simple badge, it's a statement of the brand's signature dark humour, parodying classic police insignia. With its imperial eagle and golden laurels, it looks just like a real badge... until you read the details.

This embroidered patch is full of satirical details that will make those in the know smile:

• The killer slogan: Instead of the traditional ‘To Protect and Serve’, the centre of the badge proudly displays ‘To Observe and Harass’, surrounding a visual prohibiting skateboarders.
• Serial number 007: A small embroidered finishing touch at the bottom of the badge.
• Premium finish: High-density embroidery with bright gold thread on a black background, offering exceptional relief and durability.

How to apply the patch:

• Denim and cotton are the best fabrics to use (be careful with polyester).
• Place the garment on a hard surface, such as an ironing board, and iron it to ensure it is nice and flat.
• Place the patch where you want it.
• Heat the iron to its hottest setting.
• Place a thin cloth over the patch (this will protect the patch and any surrounding material).
• Place the iron on the patch and press down as hard as possible for 15 to 30 seconds.
• Remove the iron and allow the patch to cool.
• Check the patch by gently rubbing the edge, trying to lift it up. If it lifts, replace the thin fabric and iron again for 10 to 15 seconds.
• To ensure the patch is securely attached, we recommend sewing around the edges.
