Scotland Flag patch
I was wondering if anyone knew where to get a Scotland flag patch, big enough to go on the back of my jacket. Thought it would be cool, and different.
Mods, please move if this is the wrong forum.

There are smaller versions on eBay. Maybe one of those sellers has a larger version in inventory.

I'd avoid getting the Rampant Lion because you'll get several people who will give you a difficult time about wearing it or flying it or displaying it. With all due respect, as an American, I don't care.

Although these are quite big, I'm not sure if they are big enough for what you want. You could always stitch them onto an arm of the jacket. Have a look anyway.

Check out your local t-shirt/embroidery company. Something about 10 inches wide, two colours (blue and silver grey) shouldn't be too expensive (for comparision, my Morgan jacket with 10 inch wings on the back was $49, including the jacket).

There is a lot of confusion over this, but I suppose the easiest way to view the issue is to think of the following flag being worn on clothing, stuck to the bumpers of cars, enamelled as tie tacks and lapel pins, and even printed on kilts, as though it were the flag of the United States.

With all due respect, the saltire is the only flag of Scotland, just as the stars and stripes is the only flag of the US.

Quite right, and brilliantly illustrated.

All I have seen are the small patches, like you would wear on your shoulder. It's possible you may have to get it custom made. That shouldn't be too difficult, since it is a simple design.

I'm not taking issue, I'm just passing on info to SDS so that he can avoid possible negative comments. I don't display the Rampant Lion myself.
