Product Information
Full details
The David Bowie Rebel Rebel Pin Badge is designed for dedicated music fans and collectors who want to celebrate the legacy of the legendary artist through a subtle, stylish accessory. Its primary benefit lies in its high-quality construction and iconic aesthetic, which serves as a perfect decorative accent for denim jackets, bags, or hats. While it is a durable and eye-catching piece, users should note that as a 45mm metal pin, it is best suited for sturdier fabrics rather than delicate silks to prevent sagging or material damage.

FAQs
What material is the pin made from?
The badge is crafted from durable zinc, chosen for its structural integrity and ability to maintain a silver finish.
Is this an officially licensed product?
Yes, this is an officially licensed David Bowie product, ensuring authentic design standards.
How wide is the badge?
The badge measures 45mm in width, making it a noticeable but not oversized accessory.
Can I wear this on a leather jacket?
Yes, though you should be aware that the pin will leave a small hole in the leather, as is standard with all pin-back badges.
Does it come with a storage case?
The pin arrives mounted on a branded backing card, which serves as both its display packaging and a safe storage medium.
Is the backing clasp removable?

Troubleshooting
Pin rotates on the fabric
Ensure the butterfly clasp is pushed all the way onto the post. If the fabric is too thin, add a small piece of stabilizer or felt behind the fabric where the pin is placed.
Clasp feels loose
Carefully pinch the two tabs on the butterfly clasp together slightly to increase the tension of the internal locking mechanism.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-quality zinc metal construction
- Sturdy and secure butterfly clasp
- Iconic, recognizable design
- Perfect size for versatile placement
Cons
- Requires sturdy fabric due to metal weight
- Single-pin design can rotate if not tightened fully
- Silver finish may scratch if stored with other sharp keys
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To attach the pin, simply push the sharp backing post through your chosen fabric and slide the butterfly clasp onto the post until you feel a secure click. For maximum longevity, avoid exposing the zinc metal to harsh chemicals or excess moisture, which can degrade the silver-colored finish over time. If the pin becomes dusty or collects fingerprints, gently wipe it with a dry, soft microfiber cloth to restore its shine. When not being worn, it is recommended to keep the badge pinned to its original backing card or a dedicated pin display board to prevent the clasp from becoming lost.
