Rubberised patches - who was the first?
Would I be correct in saying that the Soviets were the first to come up with
rubberised patches? Following the end of the Cold War rubberised patches were also used by most ex Soviet republics and several ex Warsaw Pact countries. Russia and the Ukraine however are moving towards embroidered patches.
Another user of rubberised patches were the South Africans bit the “Tupperware” patches were a mix of rubber and some other material. Did any NATO member have rubberised patches?
Thank you.
