    I agree with Panache.

    -OR-

    You could pin it to the breast pocket of an arglye jacket.

    "Blazer badges" really should be made only with bullion. An embroidered patch on a pocket of a blazer just doesn't look right to me.

    And an Argyll jacket really isn't a blazer/club jacket.

    How about sewing it on a rucksack? I frequently carry my rucksack to games.

    I am with AK Kilted guy there are no rules in how you wear your kilt it's yours do what ever you want to it.
    I had thought about putting my NEDU patch on my FK Steve made me a tri color desert camo one( awsome kilt ) and I have a black NEDU patch that would look nice with the black buttons, just haven't gotten around to it.

    I went through a patch period. Learned not to iron them on for sure, sew. Put them on the cargo pockets of my Utilikilt Workman's and Survival II kilts. Have since taken them off.

    Have always taken off the SportKilt patch that comes on them and have always asked Rocky to leave the USA Kilt patch off.

    For what you're considering, its too bad you can't score a second patch and leave the first framed.

    I did wind up making up a couple inexpensive flight jackets into patch jackets. Another option for patches that goes with kilts, at least in cool weather.

    Is "bullion" the gold wire that really nice clan patches often use instead of thread?

    Thanks for clarifying that! I had wondered how metal bricks would work with clothing.
