Product Information
Full details
The Iron Maiden Purgatory Eddie Pin Badge is an essential accessory for metal music enthusiasts and band memorabilia collectors looking to showcase their fandom. This officially licensed, 3D-molded zinc badge captures the iconic Purgatory-era Eddie character in striking detail, providing a durable and secure way to personalize jackets, bags, or display boards. While it serves as an excellent collector's item, users should note that the 50mm width and 3D detailing may make it heavier than standard flat enamel pins, requiring a sturdy fabric base to prevent sagging.

Can I wash a jacket with the pin attached?

Is the design flat or 3D?

Troubleshooting
The pin keeps drooping or sagging on my jacket.
The badge has some weight due to its zinc composition. Try attaching it to a seam or using a small piece of heavy-duty fabric backing on the inside of the garment to provide more stability.
The butterfly clasp feels loose.
Use a pair of needle-nose pliers to gently squeeze the two sides of the butterfly clip closer together to increase the tension on the pin post.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To attach the badge, simply hold the back of the butterfly clasp, push the pin through your chosen fabric, and snap the clasp onto the post until you feel a secure click. For long-term care, keep the pin in a dry environment to prevent any potential oxidation of the zinc alloy. If the surface becomes dusty, use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to wipe it clean. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the painted details of the 3D design. If the butterfly clasp becomes loose over time, you can gently squeeze the two metal tabs together to restore the grip tension.
