14. No CLB's (Chapter Location Bars), any territory rockers, or anything giving the appearance of a rocker should be worn with the RC patch. State flags, state logos may be worn in some areas and not in others. It's best to check with the local RC officers to make sure what is ok in your area.
15. If someone from a motorcycle club requests that you remove your vest/patch, don’t argue. The best reply is, "No Problem" & politely take it off and let your Club Officer know what motorcycle club it was so they can deal with any potential problems. You normally will only get asked once.
16. If an establishment has a sign indicating “No Colors”, even though your patch is not considered “colors”, the vest should be removed out of respect to the other clubs and the policy of the establishment. While you may just be a Riding Club, it's only respectful to honor the house rules. Motorcycle clubs that honored the "house rules" would probably be deeply offended that you didn't. Also remember, many establishments choose to have this policy and it applies to all clubs that use any kind of patch; they do not distinguish between a MC and a RC. Be aware of the local motorcycle club hangouts & it's best not to wear the RC patch into them without an invitation.

the only patch on my vest says carhartt but i didn't put it there. Really man i know this has been said but wear whatever you want. Good old pete fonda got some old lady to sow a flag on the back of his jacket and it became the most famous riding jacket of all time (my opinion) I got a funny feeling you and the fam won't be going in a bar where mc guy are anyway. My dads friends all wear those vests and some tips from them, if you wanna get a patch on a pocket you need someone with a special machine and if you get the "i drank too much beer for this vest" button extenders they can turn your vest into a parachute. i know you wanted to let this thing die but i think that's why this forum is here to get opinions about stuff like this and lots and lots of tech help that's not a poser thing. I don't think any of us are hardcore taping away on our key boards with our internet connections instead of couch surfing with our bikes as our only possessions

Why do I wear a vest? It's a easy way to carry my pistol! Works great, I purchased it just for that. I'm surprised no one else mentioned using theirs for this. We can't open carry, only concealed.....

Sorry to bump this old thread, but its actually great and filled with lots of info.
I wonder how much is still relevant?
Also after reading this, im so tempted to wear a top rocker that says "POSERS"
and a title patch "President" LOL ahaha
PS this should be moved to General, IMO
