SINGER Denim & Twill Iron-On Patches Combo, 8pc Assorted

Worked great applies well

I like the variety of colors and sizes. Best for things like punctures or tears. For areas that fabric has worn out, the patch works but eventually a nearby area gets too thin and tears. Then the item becomes a rag.

These are iron-on twill patches for jeans and slacks. You get black, khaki, navy, and a medium-denim. I've never needed to patch jeans before, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but my husband somehow wore a large hole just below the waistband of his work jeans, right under the belt loop. I was worried the patch would be obvious and ugly, but much to my surprise, it wasn't! You can hardly see it. First, I cut a patch that's about 1/2" wider than the hole. I trimmed the loose threads around the hole, then I used a hot iron to press the area, smoothing the fabric out and preheating it. Before sticking the patch on, I slipped a scrap of muslin underneath, so I wouldn't accidentally adhere the patch to my ironing board. Turns out, I didn't need it, but it's a wise precaution to take. Once everything was ready, I placed the patch over the hole and covered it with the iron, holding it in place for 45 seconds, as directed. It adhered quite nicely, with no peeling or loose edges. And best of all, the denim blends in with the jeans, so you can hardly tell it's there! The hole is still visible from the inside of the jeans, so I don't know how it's going to hold up in the long run. (If necessary, I'll come back and update my review.) The packaging did warn that the patch could come loose in the wash, so my husband is under strict instructions to inspect the patch, making sure it's still secure before tossing the jeans in the dryer. I have visions of the patch loosening, then sticking to something else from the dryer's heat. But then, I'm paranoid like that! (As mentioned above, if there's any problem with the patch, I'll come back and revise this review.) I was pleasantly surprised with how nice these patches turned out. The one I put on my husband's jeans is barely visible, and it saved them from the donation bin. I'm hopeful that my husband will get at least another year's wear out of them. The only thing I didn't like was that the patches were stapled together (with industrial staples) in two different places. It was a pain to remove the staples, and I didn't care for the tiny holes they left behind. Other than that, though, I'm happy with this product. Four stars and recommended to anyone who needs to repair a small to medium-sized hole or frayed spot in jeans or work slacks.

These patches are great and I love that they come with some larger patches for more "adult sized" fixes. My son and husband are always going through the knees in their pants so we use the big ones for my husband's pants and the small ones for my son's pants. It's way easier to use these iron on patches than it is to try to sew a patch in by hand. So far they've held up very well. My only recommendation would be to patch the whole area where the hole is, not just the hole. Typically the fabric around the hole is pretty worn out too so if you leave it exposed after ironing on the patch it becomes the new weak spot and it's likely to tear again.

as others have said, using a "glue" to assist slowed/stopped the peeling off on every wash/dry cycle. on itself it won't last that long... the knees break for a reason, and these definitely won't stay put for more than a week before starting to peel off if you have active kids. they DON'T break, and that's a big plus, but they do peel off with hard use and during wash/dry cycles. Supplementation with stitches and "glue" seem the best combination. Not an all-in-one solution, but works very good with small, cheap additions. Recommend, but caveat emptor.

Easy to iron on and it stays on

Don’t waste your money on this item. I have used iron on patches for years and this is the first time I have had them actually peal off as soon as the clothing was put on. I won’t even give this a one star! I had to in order to make this review.

A+

Bien

Nicht gut geklappt

El tamaño adecuado para mi equipo. Satisfacción al 100%!!!

Pegó un día y se despegó en la primera lavada.

They work ok, re ironed them several times but they keep pealing off after a few days of use.
