Official VMM-163 Evil Eyes Skeleton Ridge Runner Horse Leather Patches — Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 163 Ridge Runners Leather Patch
Ride like the wind on leather wings.
Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 163 (VMM-163) "Ridge Runners" operates the MV-22B Osprey from Marine Corps Air Station Miramar, California, as part of Marine Aircraft Group 16 (MAG-16), I Marine Expeditionary Force. This premium leather patch features the Evil Eyes skeleton horseman design — a dramatic artistic interpretation that combines the squadron's "Evil Eyes" callsign with the Ridge Runner identity and a spectral horse motif.
VMM-163 carries the unique dual identity of "Evil Eyes" and "Ridge Runners," with patch designs that reflect both aspects of the squadron's personality. The skeleton rider on horseback evokes the frontier spirit and untamed energy of the ridge-running tradition — fast, fearless, and unstoppable across any terrain. In the modern context, VMM-163's MV-22B Ospreys are the ridge runners of the sky, racing across mountains, deserts, and oceans to deliver Marines into the fight. The leather medium elevates this striking design with premium craftsmanship and a rugged aesthetic that matches the squadron's aggressive spirit.
This leather patch combines artistic flair with military heritage in a truly unique collectible.
Perfect For: VMM-163 Ridge Runners/Evil Eyes veterans, MV-22 Osprey enthusiasts, leather military patch collectors, and artistic squadron design fans.
