Very cool Punk pants, Love the patches. Last week, I went to the mall and I went to pick up some Punk shirts and now I call them my Punk Rock collection. I brought the three shirts of The Ramones, Green Day and The Misfits along with the Misfits necklace.

[@kaz3369]

These are amazing! I'm new to punk. I'm all over the alternative community, but I want to look into punk because there's so much to learn and so many cool things inside of it. I just got introduced to crust pants like yesterday and just..wow. they take so much time and patience. I think I may start a pair of crust pants/ patch pants as I learn more. I've always leaned more towards the emo/scene part of the alternative community, but I've been in it for a while now and it's a little boring. I'm trying to learn about the gothic community and I'm especially curious about the punk community and all its subcultures. Mad respect for your bomb ass pants dude!

[@BlackMetalRebellion]

Thanks for the kind words and support! The Punk "culture" is varying depending on person to person. But yeah. The "crust" version of patched pants came from living on the streets and wearing out your clothes (therefore actually NEEDING to patch them up. Most of them couldn't afford band patches so you'd see that most of them were just random material swatches stitched on (with MAYBE one or two actual crust band patches). My pants here aren't really super reminiscent of THAT culture/style but I like the look and enjoy the sewing and placement of patches etc. I know people love to come here and rip me a new one for "not having any crust bands on (my) pants" but it is what it is. I love punk. I made the pants. People don't like it, they can fuck off lol. Cheers and have fun!

[@puffin20]

So you're hopping from one scene to another cause you got bored? Wow... Punk is a lifestyle, it's not the clothes or the hair or whatever. Real punks will know the difference if you're a true punk or just some kid rockin' jackets and pants covered with patches. Just a heads up on that.

[@westleyrangen3908]

[@qruze9162]

@@BlackMetalRebellion you're welcome! I just made my own patch pants today, would you recommend buying a bunch of patches and sewing them all on immediately, or buying a bunch and sewing each on overtime, how did you do it?

[@BlackMetalRebellion]

@@qruze9162 That depends on you my dude. If you want the look, then buy a buncha patches and sew em on. If you want the authentic experience, wear some holes in your pants and sew patches on as needed. I'm not very patient when I want something. So I opted to just make my patches (when I couldn't afford them) and buy my patches when I could, so I could complete the pants sooner.

[@qruze9162]

@@BlackMetalRebellion thanks for the tip! Super helpful video too ♥️

[@gothicmetalmaniac7424]

Let me just say this in my opinion I know there you can sew patches on your pants until I watch this video just while I had no clue you can do that wow that's amazing

[@BlackMetalRebellion]

[@pinkpunkcreations5814]

I love the stitching.. !!

[@BlackMetalRebellion]

Thanks! Took a bit of trial and error but I got a process down now that I like.

[@certifiedamericanidiot3273]

maybe can you do a stitching tutorial ? i always stitch my pants/vests wrong when i stitch and they usually fall off haha

[@BlackMetalRebellion]

It's basically just a learning curve process you have to go thru. Find out which type of stitching and thread works best for which project. Be it battle jackets or crust pants etc. For battlejackets regular straight line stitching should be fine (never glue on patches). For crust pants, some people suggest using dental floss as thread but I feel using thicker thread will work fine. Just use the parallel style stitching for those.

[@JaymeSplendid]

You don't feel the floss at all, burning the ends is a must and the majority of the floss is on the outside anyway. Trust me on this. I used to make my own "Skinny Jeans" before you could buy them by taking them in and adding about 10-12 inch zippers on the back of the pant legs. I'd cut a line from the cuff and go straight up then sew the "coat" zippers while open onto the leg to match the cuts. To take them in, which was the first thing id do while doing the back zippers last, I'd put them on inside out,pull and pinch the jeans to the desired tightness from the inside of The leg, all the way to the crotch and back down then mark the spot with a marker. Id then cut out the excess fabrics by cutting along the lines I made. I'd then do the classic hem sew and then if go back and do the pattern over the cut one would do when sewing a patch. I found the waxed dental floss was much stronger than normal thread and using colors like red or green made the work pop out. These days you could now just put zippers on the back of the jeans these days without having to take the pants in as you can buy skinny jeans. With the zippers in the back and wearing a pair of engineer boots looks really good too.

[@BlackMetalRebellion]

Thanks for taking the time to talk about and explain all of that! Although I still feel floss would be such an inconvenience for me to use lol.

[@Peach_Creed]

A lot of really cool patches, hope to see more stuff like this

[@BlackMetalRebellion]

[@dierealejonschemel]

Ok. To each his own and I dont mind him capitalizing on this, but holy hell. If you want "crust" pants, be a crust! Wear shit till you wear holes and patch it. Besides, any punk who knows his shit knows that a kid with a faux hawk wearing a pair a pants or jacket covered with crisp clean white patches is a scenester. Christ, do it your self!

[@BlackMetalRebellion]

I'm not sure why everyone seems to have to focus on the "crust" word in this video. It's also known as patched pants (you know, the part I put in brackets). This is just something I felt like doing in my free time because I like the aesthetic and Punk. I DO listen to Crust Punk bands like Dystopia, Nausea, and others. But the patches I put on these pair of pants were of the ones I listened to the most at THAT time. Chill.

Well, crust is actually a mixture of punk and extreme metal. I consider myself crust and i hate punk rockers with plaid pants and mohawks. They are more about style, whereas crusties just wear normal clothing but are extremely old, torn, and dirty, and can't forget dreaded mullets!!

Does one have to put punk bands and artists on their pants? I am much more into emo and scene music and am definitely more emo then punk, but I love the look of these! But I definitely don’t want to offend any punks or there subcultures by not listening to those bands and stuff. And also do all the patches have to be music or can it be video game related. Again I don’t want to often anyone if I end up trying to make a pair

[@BlackMetalRebellion]

Lol, fuck what other people think. If you wanna make pants that look like this then do it. It's not "cultural appropriation". No one can OWN a style. It's essentially art at It's root. I say as long as you like it and enjoy what you're putting into it, then it's your right. Your clothes, your choice. Anyone who tells you different is an immature asshole or close-minded elitist.

[@DerpyEndz]

Any advice on how to make the patches? Someone on alt tiktok said to use paint and t-shirt scraps, but should I just use regular acrylic paint? And would a layer of modge podge hurt? Sorry for all the questions I’m new to this haha

[@BlackMetalRebellion]

No worries, t-shirt scraps probably won't be the strongest material. I cut square patches from old black jeans that don't fit anymore. Way sturdier. As for the paint, I buy non-water based acrylic paint from Michael's craft store. The stuff in the squeezable tubes. Don't get the garbage little bottles from your Dollar Store. That stuff won't stay and will just scratch off. Cheers! Hope that helps :-)

[@daveyleeriot]

You can use just about any kinda fabric material homie. If it doesn't hold up, fuck it then you patch it over with sumpin else. I've made a few outta t-shirt and bandana scraps. Textile canvas is pretty durable. I wouldn't recommend too many embroidery patches unless they are hella thin, bc the thick ones are harder to sew.

[@ilsnl1262]

What kind of paint did you use to make it look like leather

[@BlackMetalRebellion]

Just high-grade acrylic from Michael's art store. And you know, a couple layers of it 🤷‍♀️

Are these jeans or just normal pants and what would work best

These are black cargo pants. Not normally what one would use for crust pants but I wanted to go for something baggier. Most crust pants are made with black skinnies or slim fits. But in the end it's really up to you.

Washing them would be the equivalent to cleaning off a signature from an album. You don't wanna remove experience or progress. If you REALLY care about the smell, use fabreez or something on them.
