Issue 07 Wanna Trade Patches Recoil Staff Join the Conversation Embroidered patches have come a long way. While their roots can be traced back to the thread-stitched fabric decorations of various ancient cultures, their modern American military use reportedly began during World War I and became commonplace by World War II.

This issue’s collection exemplifies this range in aesthetics.
