Patched a hole in sleeping bag, so far, so good

My son got his sleeping bag stuck in a zipper on his pack, when pulling the bag out, it tore a chunk out of the sleeping bag outer. We cut one of these patches in half, stuck one part on the inside and one on the outside and it was good to go! So far, so good. If you cut these in half, be sure to round the square corners so they're less likely to peel off.

Miracle solution!

My son busted the seat out of his fav Prana pants, and his climbing partner got tired of looking at his butt. These flex patches continue to hold up even after a long trip, 100 pitches...

Would be good, but

1 year ago

The material itself is strong, but the tape got a memory seam in the middle from the backing, attempting to repair my air mattress with these just gave a track for air to leak up because of the semi elastic nature of these, putting it tight just made it curl up in the middle and air leaked out. I had some other gear aid patches I got to patch some holes in a quilt and they worked without issue

Happy with this product.

My 225 pound son's Eno got chewed by a squirrel, and I LIBERALLY used two sizes of this tape to repair. With much care, he has safely been able to use his hammock again. I am buying more to repair a dog bed.

Patched up my air mattress - works like new!

3 years ago

Put this patch on a hole I had on my air mattress and it works like it’s brand new again! Way better to spend a couple of dollars on a patch (that you can cut and use small pieces of over and over again) than buying a whole new air mattress!

If you need to patch some gear

5 years ago

I had a small tear in a pretty new puffy. Was able to make a repair that is pretty much invisible with these. Good size to cut your patch and have plenty left over.
