The Art of Fashion: Ellis Ricketts’ Custom Leather Vest for Broken Wings Apparel

At Broken Wings Apparel, we are redefining the intersection of art and fashion, one unique piece at a time. Our latest creation, a custom leather vest designed by our sole designer, Ellis Ricketts, exemplifies this vision perfectly. This biker-style vest is more than just an article of clothing; it’s a wearable masterpiece that combines practicality with profound artistic expression. Here’s the story behind this exceptional piece.

A Masterpiece in Leather

Crafted from high-quality Hot Leathers, this vest is built to last. Its biker-style design features 10 pockets, including dual concealed carry pockets, providing ample storage without compromising on style. The side lace adds a touch of rugged elegance, ensuring a perfect fit while enhancing the vest’s edgy appeal.

The Artist’s Touch

What sets this vest apart are the custom patches designed by Ellis Ricketts. Known for his ability to blend art with fashion, Ellis has outdone himself with these intricate designs. The vest features eight patches, each meticulously crafted and sewn on by Leather Goods, a renowned leather shop in Toronto, Ontario.

Front and Center

On the front of the vest, two patches catch the eye immediately. The first is the symbolic fly logo of Broken Wings Apparel, a design that has become synonymous with our brand’s ethos of resilience and transformation. Next to it is a patch that simply states “Broken Wings,” a reminder of the strength and beauty that come from embracing one’s imperfections.

A Canvas on the Back

The back of the vest is where Ellis Ricketts’ artistry truly shines. It features three patches that, when put together, spell out “Broken Wings Apparel.” This triptych of text serves as a bold declaration of the brand’s identity. Flanking this centerpiece are two large, intricately designed horsefly wings. Originally hand-sketched with a brush pen, these wings symbolize freedom and the ability to rise above challenges. At the very bottom of the vest, a variation of the Broken Wings logo with two smaller fly wings completes the design, adding a touch of subtle sophistication.

Imported Excellence

All patches are embroidered and imported from Italy, ensuring the highest quality and attention to detail. The combination of fine Italian craftsmanship and Ellis Ricketts’ visionary designs creates a product that is both luxurious and meaningful. The patches are not just decorations; they are works of art that tell a story of resilience, transformation, and the beauty found in brokenness.

Function Meets Fashion

This custom vest is a perfect blend of functionality and fashion. The numerous pockets make it practical for everyday wear, especially for bikers and adventurers who need to carry essentials. The concealed carry pockets add an extra layer of utility, catering to those who value both style and safety.
