Destry, are these still the really large patches made to be worn on the back of a vest, sweater, etc.? I'd like one but not that large; any plans to offer smaller sizes (probably not I'd guess).

Destry L. Hoffard 05-11-2020 09:52 PM

Yeah these are a large jacket patch. The problem with doing a smaller pocket size version is you would lose so much detail. If this all works out I might see if we can work a re-design into something smaller but that's down the road a piece.

Destry L. Hoffard 05-12-2020 05:04 PM

100% felt samples are in hand and one color looks promising. Things are moving forward.

Brian Stucker 05-22-2020 04:31 PM

i'd like one. they are great looking

Destry L. Hoffard 05-22-2020 05:31 PM

Waiting for the thread to arrive so they can run the official prototype.

One for me also.

Destry L. Hoffard 05-27-2020 06:07 PM

Just had email from the manufacturer, the thread has arrived. I've got to call tomorrow and pay the art fee and for them to run the prototype. Things are moving forward, slowly.......

John Davis 05-27-2020 07:00 PM

Big D, please put me down for a patch.

Destry L. Hoffard 05-30-2020 06:20 PM

Fees are paid, I should have art by next week and a prototype in hand a week or so afterwards.

Destry L. Hoffard 06-07-2020 12:29 PM

Art is in, they'll likely run the prototype this week.

Keith Doty 06-07-2020 12:44 PM

Please put me down for one, would be very interested in a couple smaller ones if they become available down the road. When and how can a man pay for his patch?

Destry L. Hoffard 06-07-2020 01:05 PM

I'm not taking any money till I see the actual quality of the work.

Keith Doty 06-07-2020 02:14 PM

A wise man.

Shawn Wayment 06-07-2020 02:17 PM

I’d like to get one too

Good news, the prototype has been run and it looks great. I'm going to officially start taking money. There will be some bookkeeping involved here and I'm going to ask you all to do your best to help me help you. If you want a patch (or multiple patches) I'm going to ask that you pay me by check or money order only (no Paypal) so I'll have an easier time keeping the money straight.

I'm not going to try to message people individually and you don't need to message me individually either. I'm going to post the address for payment right here on the thread.

Send $65 per patch (that's a shipped price) to:

Destry L. Hoffard
5150 Carpenter Rd.
Ypsilanti MI 48197

Include a clearly written example of your shipping address and a note saying how many patches you want. If you can send an actual shipping label for your package that would be a big help but that's not a requirement.

I'm going to accept payments for 30 days from Monday (June 22nd). After that date I will officially deposit all checks and money orders into my bank account then call and make the order to the manufacturer.

I will post a weekly update as to how many payments I have and give a count down as to how long you have left to pay.

Below is a picture of the prototype patch which looks fantastic.

Bob Dombeck 06-18-2020 04:02 PM

Looks very nice. , Destry, thanks for all your effort in getting this going. My check will be in the mail in the next day or two.

Bob Dombeck 06-18-2020 04:05 PM

Can you refresh my memory as to what the actual size is of the patch?

Keith Doty 06-18-2020 04:14 PM

Patch looks great! Would you prefer a stick-on label already addressed?

Bob Dombeck 06-18-2020 04:16 PM

Do we know if there are any special instructions as far as being able to wash a garment with this patch on it in a regular washing machine or will it only be suitable for dry clean only items? Don't want the patch to pucker up or do anything weird.
Thanks.

Keith Doty 06-18-2020 04:19 PM

I was going to sew it on my favorite quail hunting vest, hasn't been washed since I bought it, figure that's bad luck! You shoot like I do some days, you need all the help you can get.

Destry L. Hoffard 06-18-2020 04:34 PM

Any label you wanna send is acceptable.

As far as laundering, I would consider this dry clean only just for the sake of safety.

Destry L. Hoffard 06-18-2020 04:36 PM

They're 10 inches across.

Mike Koneski 06-19-2020 01:08 PM

Destry, my check for two patches is in the mail today. Thank you!!

Keith Doty 06-19-2020 01:17 PM

William Woods 06-19-2020 10:44 PM

keavin nelson 06-20-2020 09:28 AM

Destry,dropped a check in the mail this morning for one patch.Thank you,Jeff Sweeter

Brian Stucker 06-23-2020 07:40 PM

Can't believe how much effort you put forth for everyone's enjoyment of all things parker. I'm kinda lazy and usually mean well, but never really get around to doing anything for anyone other than my wife and spoiled kids.
I'll be sending you some money instead of giving it to Amazon (for more crap for my wife). Thanks very much.

Destry L. Hoffard 06-25-2020 05:17 PM

We're off to a running start, I've got 19 patches paid and not even a week into the 30 days.

Keith Doty 06-25-2020 05:32 PM

Destry, will you being confirming receipt of members $$? I'd hate to think some of us mailed to you but you didn't receive due to the mail, the times, solar flares, climate change, or whatever. I certainly don't want to miss out and I'm sure others are of the same mind. Maybe all paid names and quantity in a post here a week before you close out? Thank You, Sir!

Destry L. Hoffard 06-25-2020 05:35 PM

Yeah once a week I'm going to post a list of who's money came in for sure.
