69 Diamond Patch, Embossed Leather

The 69 diamond
Two numbers that need no explanation. A cheeky wink for some, a cult year for others: 1969, the summer the chopper became the symbol of freedom on the road. Everyone reads into it what they want, and that is its whole charm. A patch that makes people smile, and says a lot without a word.

Three colours
Red, brown or white: the numbers and the border are raised, embossed right into the leather. The brown is a special hand-applied patina that gives the leather a beautiful aged look: every piece is unique.

Small size, sew-on
At 37 mm (1.5 in) wide and 65 mm (2.6 in) high, it fits anywhere: on the front of your vest, your jacket, your denim jacket, your saddlebag or your cap. It is easy to sew on, by hand or by machine.

Made in our workshop
In our family workshop, since 1989, every patch is cut from 3 mm (0.12 in) full-grain cowhide made especially for Traveller Shop by a French tanner, then embossed. The colours last: they stand up to the weather and to washing. A thick, sturdy leather that only gets better with the miles. The relief doesn’t really show in the photo: in real life, the design stands out by about 3 mm (0.12 in), and the patch looks even better.
