Stand proud among the initiates of the deep with the ultimate symbol of maritime tradition. The Ancient Order of the Shellback PVC Patch honors the rugged transformation from a slimy "Pollywog" to a trusted, battle-hardened "Shellback." Having crossed the Equator under the watchful eye of King Neptune and his royal court, you have endured the historic "Crossing the Line" ceremony—a time-honored naval tradition spanning centuries. This patch is a badge of honor for sailors, marines, and coast guardsmen who have paid their dues to the deep.

Molded from ultra-durable, weather-proof PVC , this 3.5-inch patch features a professional hook-and-loop backing , making it the ultimate addition to plate carriers, flight suits, cruise jackets, or gear bags.
