Storage Pocket Patch: Hobo Symbols and Markings
Encrypted payments processed through trusted providers. We never store your card details.
This patch contains useful symbols, signals, and markings to be referenced in survival scenarios. The Hobo Signs and Symbols are helpful in finding medical aid, avoiding dangerous areas, or finding a safe place to shelter for the night.
FEATURES:
- Built-in Storage Pocket: The "hook" side contains a laser-cut slit allowing you to access a nearly 2" x 3" x .25" open storage area.
- Secure money, medication, fire starter, notes, bandages, and more inside the compartment.
- Items stay put inside and will not fall out during wear or carry. The "hook" side attaches to clothing, hats, backpacks, etc.
- The Display side is built from PVC and is double-stitched to the "hook" backing, increasing resistance to wear and tear from repeated access to the storage pocket.
- Size 2.1" x 3.1" x .25".
The Ground-to-Air Signals can be used to summon rescue and assistance from passing aircraft, but could also be improvised in other messaging situations. The Urban Search and Rescue Markings can be interpreted to determine if the building is safe to enter (for shelter or scavenging of supplies).
