Wear your sense of humour

The Patch Board’s ‘That’s A Terrible Idea… When Do We Start?’ patch is a firm favourite on the UK skirmish scene. It sums up the mindset of every player who has ever charged an objective against the odds, and it looks the part on a cap, plate carrier or pack.

Built from moulded PVC

Unlike a printed or embroidered patch, this one is made from moulded PVC rubber. The design sits proud in crisp detail, the black and white finish stays sharp, and it shrugs off mud, rain and the washing machine without fading or fraying.

On and off in seconds

The hook (Velcro) backing grips any loop panel, so you can add it to your loadout in seconds and move it whenever you fancy a change. No stitching, no glue, no fuss.

Part of a bigger collection

Frequently asked questions

How does the patch attach?

It has a hook (Velcro) backing that grips any loop panel, so it sticks straight onto caps, plate carriers, packs or a patch board with no sewing needed.

Is it waterproof for skirmish days?

Yes. The moulded PVC rubber is weatherproof and hardwearing, so mud, rain and repeated washing will not make the colours fade or the edges fray.

Will it fit my cap or plate carrier?

If your gear has a loop (soft Velcro) panel, the patch will attach. Most tactical caps, carriers and bags include one.

Can I take it off and reuse it?

Absolutely. Hook-and-loop lets you peel it off and reposition it between different loadouts as often as you like.

Is this an official The Patch Board patch?

Yes, it is a genuine The Patch Board design, a UK brand that specialises in airsoft and morale patches.
