go to http://www.jpcycles.com
they sell all kinds of different studs, etc. i know i've seen them for saddlebags but i'm sure they do them for jackets too.
the best place i have ever found though, is to go to a large motorcycle swap meet. they have them by the hand full at any i have ever been to.

my suggestion is to not worry about trying to fit some fashionable biker image. That seems like all the motorcycling community worries about these days is if they fit the badass image. Patches are supposed to represent the places you have been and the events you have attended on your bike. buying them at a store because you want some "old school look" makes you a poser. People are so worried about how much their bike costs or what brand it is or how cool their "biker gear" looks on them. Ride, and ride alot. Mileage is more impressive than some fabricated image.

if these are the ones that push through the jacket and then you fold the tabs backwards to hold them in place, they are dangerous the tabs may well stick into your skin if you fall off hope you don't .
the studs on the outside will make you slide more but the tabs will cut your back to pieces and you're back will look like its been through a shredder yes it looks good having studs but also think of the safety aspect first .
keep those wheels upright my friend and safe riding to you

Try the high street instant shoe repair places. That's where I got some studs a while back. They had a great selection in chrome and brass.

Micheal's Arts and Crafts. They sell anything from glitter to flowers to spikes and conchos and a kit to install them with. I paid $10 for a concho for my bike and they had a pkg of 5 for $5

You should be able to get them from some of the high street shops that sell arts and crafts stuff.
