My vest was gifted to me by my community on 3/18/2017. There are so many reasons why that was an emotional day, it's a day I will remember for the rest of my days.


I don't wear too many pins on my vest, all of my run pins, friendship pins, etc. I keep on a dedicated pinboard on the wall of my dungeon. The vest is already physically and psychologically heavy enough.


I guess I don't follow the traditional left side/right side placement of emblems, like so many things on my Leather path I do what works for me, what feels right to me, what makes sense to my neurodivergent brain.


Here is a breakdown of the elements of my vest


  1. This symbol represents our polycule

  2. This is the logo of a group that I helped run for years in Jacksonville called Alternative Lifestyles Enthusiasts (A.L.E.)

  3.  Ritual Steel - this is my ritual family

  4. Asshole Merit Badge - I worked hard to earn this!

  5. I have a babygirl who calls me Daddy

  6. My property's alter is this wyvern

  7. A partner of mine has a proclivity for a certain kind of man, so this represents my inclusion in this elite group

  8. My Name - this is special to me, when I was gifted this vest it came with this on it, it was handcrafted by one of my metamours who also whether he likes it or not was a mentor to me.

  9. My Pronouns - I made a concerted choice in 2020 to start actively stating my pronouns as a way to normalize the practice

  10. Green laces - my favorite color is green and so when the vest was gifted to me it was gifted with these green laces in it

  11. Fuck Racism - because of course! Also, this logo is the logo for one of my favorite bands called Fishbone

  12. I mean ... it speaks for itself

  13. I am sure I am on government lists somewhere based on the things I deep dive on the internet

  14. Disability Pride - I am disabled, not always visibly, it is an important part of who I am and how I navigate the world

  15. M/s - I proudly engage in power exchange dynamics, regardless of the depth of exchange, the depth of intention remains

  16. Leather Pride - I am proud to identify as a Leatherperson, my Leather path is my own and I am grateful to have people who understand it and support it

  17. House of Just logo - this symbol represents our House, it was designed by a former partner who understood who we are and what we are about and I love it

  18. I am embarrassed here, I don't remember who this patch was from. I seem to recall acquiring it at Southeast Leather Fest years ago, I believe it was a fundraiser for someone's title run. If someone knows/remembers or if it is yours ping me on Fetlife please

  19. The is a map of the United States and every time I visit a new state to teach or support the community I color in that state

  20. This summarizes my play style pretty succinctly


In the inner pockets of my vest are almost always the following

  1. A handful of House of Just pins to give away when the urge strikes me

  2. Several pairs of nitrile gloves in case I need to handle some sort of emergency

  3. A stack of 3" x 5" index cards, for taking notes (I feel naked without an ink pen in my pocket)
