England: Snaggletooth, the face of Motörhead since 1977

Official Motörhead England sew-on patch – 7 × 10 cm

🇬🇧 This official Motörhead patch celebrates Snaggletooth, one of the most iconic mascots in rock history. Combined with the word England, the design pays tribute to the band's British roots and to the visual identity that has accompanied Motörhead since the very beginning.

Snaggletooth: far more than a mascot 🤘

Created in 1977 by artist Joe Petagno, Snaggletooth—also known as the War-Pig—quickly became the official face of Motörhead. With its boar tusks, razor-sharp teeth, spiked military helmet and hanging chains, this hybrid creature perfectly embodies the raw, uncompromising world imagined by Lemmy Kilmister. Over the decades, it has become one of heavy metal's most recognisable visual symbols.

The word England proudly highlights the band's origins, founded in London in 1975, and celebrates Motörhead's place among the greatest names in British rock.

Detailed patch description 🔍

The design relies on a striking black-and-white contrast. The classic Motörhead logo dominates the upper part of the patch, while Snaggletooth fills the centre with its metallic face, curved tusks, sharp fangs, spiked helmet, heavy chains and small hanging skull. The word England, rendered in the same Gothic lettering as the logo, completes the composition at the bottom.

💡 Did you know?

Contrary to popular belief, there isn't just one version of Snaggletooth. Throughout his collaboration with Motörhead, Joe Petagno created numerous variations of the character, changing certain details while preserving the distinctive features that make the mascot instantly recognisable.

This patch showcases one of those classic interpretations and reminds us that, even more than the band's logo, Snaggletooth has become the true face of Motörhead, instantly recognised by fans around the world.
