About Us
"At Paddy's Patches we provide Patch-On Personality, Iron-on Attitude & Sew-on Style!"
Welcome to Paddy's Patches, a patch store inspired by the enigmatic character of Paddy, a young man who lived during the 1916 Easter Rising in Ireland. As a boy, Paddy had always been fascinated by the soldiers who marched through his village, their colorful uniforms adorned with intricate patches that he could only dream of having.
As he grew older, Paddy became more and more determined to collect as many patches as he could. He spent hours scouring the battlefield, trading with soldiers and bartering with anyone who had a patch that caught his eye. His collection soon grew to an impressive size, and he became known throughout the village as the Patch Man.
But Paddy's obsession with patches was not limited to their physical appearance. He saw in them a symbol of bravery, loyalty, and the ties that bind people together. As he continued to collect patches, he also began to immerse himself in the stories and histories behind them, determined to uncover their secrets.
Despite his love for his collection, Paddy knew that he had to make a difficult decision. He had always dreamed of leaving Ireland and starting a new life in America, and he realized that selling his precious patch collection was the only way to make that dream a reality.
And so, with a heavy heart, Paddy sold his entire patch collection and set sail for America. There, he started a new life and is said to have became one of the most respected rare coin collectors in the country.
