Peace Punk Anarcho New Era ($47.00)

I remember back in the late nineties and early 2000s when St. Marks Place was the punk mecca it used to be instead of the Japanese restaurant mecca it is now. At this point in my life I’m more excited by a well prepared order of chicken katsu with curry than I am about finding a good place to buy patches. However there are days where I wake up and think,”Fuck, I’d really like to go buy some awesome patches for old bands and maybe some studs. I miss those shitty old carefree days where I didn’t care about food at all and I could eat ramen noodles twice a day and then spend my money seeing shows and buying forties and patches.

You see kids with like one or two patches nowadays on their clothes but it used to be that you’d go for ultimate patch saturation and just make a second layer of clothing on your coat or vest of patches. Maybe you’d be holding your ratty old pants together with crappy canvas patches. Maybe you’d put a patch on your grungy ball cap and BAM it was suddenly a Wu Tang cap. Where have all the patches gone? Long time passing.

Anyway, this is a re-do of our Peace Punk hat but now it’s on camo. I guess the idea of an anarchy symbol on a New Era is pretty funny. I dig it. If you hate it just get a patch for something you do like and put it over the anarchy symbol or whatever.
