Wear the scene that started thrash with the Metallica Bay Area Thrash Back Patch, officially licensed by Rockoff, woven on a 95% cotton 5% polyester blend. Honours the San Francisco Bay Area metal community that produced Metallica, Exodus, Testament and beyond.

The Bay Area thrash scene of the early 1980s was the crucible for some of metal's most aggressive music. Metallica relocated from LA to El Cerrito in 1983 and the rest is history. This patch is shorthand for that whole era of garage shows and tape trading.

Sized large for back-panel battle-jacket use. Sew on with heavy thread for permanent placement.
