Motörhead – Core 50th Anniversary Back Patch (Official Printed Sew-On Back Patch)

Celebrate fifty years of one of heavy music's most influential and enduring bands with this official Motörhead Core 50th Anniversary back patch. Created to commemorate the band's remarkable 1975–2025 legacy, this striking collector's piece features a triple golden Snaggletooth design alongside the iconic slogans "Born To Lose, Live To Win" and "Vive Ut Vincas" ("Live So That You May Win"), honouring the uncompromising spirit that made Motörhead a global rock 'n roll institution.

Material, Production Quality & Application

This official back patch is manufactured from durable, heavy-duty printed fabric specifically selected for battle jacket construction and long-term wear. The material provides the structural weight required to sit flat against denim, leather and canvas garments without bunching while remaining flexible enough for comfortable hand or machine sewing.

The artwork is applied using a high-definition screen-printing process that captures the intricate details of the triple golden Snaggletooth artwork, anniversary graphics and commemorative text with exceptional clarity. The printing process ensures excellent detail retention while maintaining durability through years of regular wear and collector use.

The perimeter features a fully overlocked (oversewn) edge which helps prevent fraying, creates clean stitch lines and ensures long-term structural integrity when mounted to jackets, vests, backpacks and other custom apparel projects.

Ergonomic Dimensions & Fitment Guide

Back patches require precise dimensions to fit properly within the rear panel of standard battle jackets and denim vests. This patch features a traditional ergonomic taper, narrowing slightly towards the base to align naturally with the seam structure found on most denim and leather jackets. Length (Vertical): Approx. 35cm (13.5") Top Width (Horizontal): Approx. 29cm (11.5") Bottom Width (Horizontal): Approx. 26cm (10.25") This proven geometry maximises rear-panel coverage while preserving space for shoulder patches, side patches and other custom battle jacket layouts.

An essential collector's piece for dedicated Motörhead fans, battle jacket builders and heavy metal collectors. The Core 50th Anniversary design celebrates the band's extraordinary legacy established through landmark releases such as Ace Of Spades, Overkill and Bomber while honouring the enduring influence of Lemmy Kilmister and one of the most important bands in heavy music history.

Equally suited to collectors of classic heavy metal, speed metal, hard rock and NWOBHM-related memorabilia, this anniversary back patch serves as a fitting tribute to a band whose influence continues to shape generations of musicians and fans worldwide.
