I can give them a thumbs up. They replaced the cuffs and waist band on mine a few years ago and did spectacular work.

Thanks, they look like a good option.
Now to get my CINC-House to approve the expenditure.
She's tougher than any CO or XO I ever had!
I never put patches on mine because I like to wear it both in and out of uniform. To a lot of guys, though, it serves as kind of a wearable shadow box, so I can see the appeal of putting patches on it, too. I'd say personal preference.
Never had patches on mine.
However, when deployed for Op Joint Endeavor, I had a round black Velcro patch added opposite the name tag.
Sort of a happy medium, and allows for one changeable patch to be worn.
HMX-1 has the squadron patch sewn opposite the name tag.
Big fan of name, squadron (stacking optional if they look cool), and flag. Some guys have platform or WTI on right shoulder.
I like the look of all leather patches and embroidered, but I have only seen leather patches in person. Never seen someone with embroidered patches on the g-1.

Like, embroidered on the jacket itself?
Yeah, like how you’d see in WWII era. Cloth patches stitched right on the leather “top gun style”.
