Are you from the sunny state of California? If you are, you might want to add a California Patch to your jacket. These State Rockers look great on sleeves or across the front of a jacket or vest. Each state rocker has the name of the state in bold white letters on a black background. The patches are arched so they fit better on shoulders.
California is the most populous state in the United States, and it's the third largest in size. The capital is Sacramento, which is one of the eight largest cities in the state. California is called The Golden State, and it joined the union in September of 1850. It's the 31st state.
California saw a huge population increase during the California Gold Rush of 1848. Thousands moved across the country to make it rich panning for gold. Of course, few actually made enough to truly become rich, but once they reached California, most of these gold hunters decided to stay in the beautiful state.
Today, California is known for a number of things. Los Angeles is the movie making capital of the U.S., and almost every major motion picture studio is based in or around Los Angeles. Because of this, many movie stars live in the state, especially in high-priced areas like Malibu. Silicon Valley is home to many technology-related companies, and it became the center of the industry during the late 90s and early 2000s.
The state has a lot to see and do, from the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco to the giant Redwood trees in the northern part of the state. Beaches, mountains, wineries, Disney Land, these are just a few reasons to love California.
