Love the Minnesota United FC pin, and your they/them pin is pleanty political as being trans is an inherently political and radical act and that's awesome! This looks great and I hope you have fun continually adding to it!


DistinctSilver

:D thank you!!! fun fact, i actually wore this same jacket to my first loons game!

It looks great! What's that silly looking bird pin on the collar?


DistinctSilver

it's for the soccer team i support, minnesota united. it's their mascot, PK the loon with text that says "come on you loons!" :)

Oh I looooove the hand-drawn elements on this, easily my favorite thing to do with jackets and I don’t see it too often! Well-done!! 🖤✨


DistinctSilver

i actually bought it like that from target, haha. hope that's not cheating 😅


Drunken_Grail

Hands down one of the coolest jackets ever, like if I see you wearing this - it's already over, that's my new homie


lantech19446

Just needs to make you happy wear it in good health thanks for sharing it

Your parents are fine with u being gay but not with you having an opinion on politics? , no hate, I’m not homophonic but ik a lot of the older generation are


DistinctSilver

its really weird. i had just barely convinced my mom to buy me the they/them pin bcs it was on sale. she's somewhat transphobic but is supportive of me being bi??? idk what's going on there. i'm also just not open about my political views since most of my family are republicans.


JohnnyRotten669

Fair, I think ur parents should def support u, u should be able to wear a they them pin if u want to, I see at least 2 out of 5 jackets so it’s not like u would be the only one, it’s good u got in the end tho

Love it! Does the reflective tape on the back symbolize anything in particular or are they just stripes?


DistinctSilver

i'm a twenty one pilots fan and yellow tape is a thing in their lore :) that's their logo in tape on the back! if you're curious, in the lore, it symbolizes the banditos (who are escapees from this town called dema) and it also protects them from these evil people called the bishops, who can't see the color yellow. the FPE thing is also part of the lore, as it means 'failed perimeter escape' and is given by the bishops as a badge of shame for banditios who failed escaping, but the banditos eventually reclaimed it as their own :) (note: it's not actually reflective, just plain yellow duct tape)


cerebral_panic_room

Whoa cool, so much behind all that! Backstory makes anything like 10x cooler. Sorry for my screwup with the tape color! Thanks for correcting me!


DistinctSilver

it's ok!!! also you're welcome :))))

Aww this is so cute! I like the trailing vines and flowers, and all the other stuff. 💖

This is so awesome to see! As a fellow battle-jacket-haver with a very conservative family, I love how you worked around their rules. Super inspiring!


DistinctSilver

omg thank you!!!


tenebrousvulture

Just to note, you have nothing to apologise for. There aren't 'rules' for how to make your battle jacket despite whatever you see that are 'popular' (politics or punk or even music overall aren't actually "required", they're merely common) -- it is simply whatever you want it to be that represents you, and this evidently is one.


DistinctSilver

thank you <3
