Welp, here goes my confidence in wearing an eye patch. And yeah, I don't have one eye and for the longest time think that it'd be cool to wear one.

My dude - eye patches are cool. I only had to wear one for a few weeks, story in my other comment, but for real an eyepatch is an awesome opportunity.

Get - or make - yourself a nice eye patch. Own it. Don't settle for plain black or tan. Get it embroidered. Bedazzle it. Get yourself patches in different colors and patterns.

An eyepatch is always gonna be noticed, so don't try for subtle. Lean into it instead and make it fucking awesome.

My wife is an embroiderer, so I actually like the idea, thanks!

Please do wear one if you want to! That guy made my day; he looked like a badass.

It’s such a rare thing to see, you’ll probably get a few jokes. But also some really fun interactions I imagine. If nothing else, you’ll give some kids a fun story to tell about that pirate they met :D

Wear one, but occasionally switch eyes, see if anyone notices

Now that would be a real challenge!
