Hobbit Camping Club Patch

From Nomad Patches

This patch is for everyone who goes out into the woods with their bag full of food, takes off their shoes often, brings a cast-iron frying pan but forgets to bring a tent, or just enjoys meandering slowly while munching on good bread and a bit of cheese. The Hobbit Camping Club is open to all Hobbits, Elves, Dwarves, etc who enjoy a bit of comfort while "roughing it" in the countryside.

Measures 2.5" x 3.5", made in the USA, standard iron-on backing (But we recommend sewing for good measure!)

• Iron-on or Sew-on patch
• Approx 2½" x 3½" inches
• Made in the USA

Illustrated by Spencer Hawkes, in Portland, OR. From the artist: Nomad Patches accidentally started in 2015 when I ended up with extra patches after a family bike tour. I had made a design but had trouble finding a manufacturer that would produce just 9 (the size of our caravan of bike tourers) so I placed an order for 50 and figured I'd give away the rest. It wasn't hard giving them away, and pretty soon I needed to order more! I started an online shop and slowly began adding designs.

Every patch I design is inspired by an adventure I've had. They tell stories and they wear out with the bags and jackets they're on as they travel all over the world. Seeing a backpack covered in patches is like seeing an old map with pencil notes, dirt stains and creases, a record of places it has been. I hope Nomad Patches inspire adventure wherever they travel.
