{"product_id":"saddleback-mountain-embroidered-iron-on-patch","title":"Saddleback Patch (Saddle Outline) — modern","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Saddleback patch, the same saddle-over-a-peak device stripped back to outline — brown saddle, white ground, black keyline, die-cut to shape with SADDLEBACK across the middle. Modern stitching, clean edges, never worn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCleaner than the version before it, with the tooling and the stitching detail stripped out and the shape left to carry it. That is almost always the sign of a mountain that has just hired somebody who went to art school.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBoth versions are better than what most ski areas settled for. A literal object, drawn plainly, beats a generic peak every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe two of them together make a small case study in what happens when a ski area in the seventies decides it ought to look more professional, and spends money accordingly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEmbroidered, die-cut to shape. Modern production. Photos are the condition report.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ropetow Vintage Co.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55537898815793,"sku":"RV-ME-089","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/2048\/7473\/files\/ropetow-vintage-co-saddleback-mountain-patch_e0d01b27-0c2d-4cf9-bb90-b5e270f75760.jpg?v=1785622223","url":"https:\/\/ropetowvintage.com\/products\/saddleback-mountain-embroidered-iron-on-patch","provider":"Ropetow Vintage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
