Riding patch size/length?


echo

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I wanted to check if the size of the riding patch is correct for my undersuit. I used the template from the forums here. Previous threads state that the patch should extend above the knee or 2/3 down your thigh.

 

Using the patch, I made the length of the inseam line 9". This places the bottom of the patch about 2/3rds down my leg. However, the width of it seems small. When I am standing, the patch is barely visible. Is this correct?

 

Here are some images, sorry for the poor quality. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Here's a screen used shot.

As you can see the patch starts just above the knee plate and comes to 'almost' the front 'seam' line that you'd find on a pair of say suit trousers.

I'm kept my riding patches on the narrower side so they don't wrap out to the fronts of my legs. Yeah the prototype guy has bigger patches, but he also has a strapped holster around his boot, so what does he know? ;)

 

And I'll be danged if I could see patches on one scout in the film, even on the Blu Ray
