Pic is randomly chosen because I'm drunk. Never posted here, if I'm fucking your rules up, sorry.

I've had a heavily worn denim vest for about 10 years. I have been using patches to keep it from literally falling apart for the past few years, but the every day wear and tear is getting out of hand more quickly than I can keep up with it. Am I just fucked? I would just buy a new vest and transplant the patches but it's become dear to my heart and I want to save it if at all possible. I come to you from /o/ in my time of need. if you have any advice on re-enforcement fabric or anything, I would appreciate it.

I have been exclusively using a needle and thread to fix holes the whole time.

First replier, please let me know how fast the board usually replies. I'm not a regular here.

patch it up from the inside and then get a dope lining on it.

Like use patches on the inside to keep everything lined up? What's a lining?

Different anon here. What he meant was to patch up your jacket from the inside by using large denim patches. The lining is essentially the stitching of different parts of your jacket. Imo your best option at this point is to bring this to a repair shop or a tailor

lining is the pattern fabric in pic related. it would be a cool unique way to hide the patch work underneath imo. but yes, you would most likely need a tailor for that part. find one and see what fabric options they have and pick something you like.
