I was hoping the patches would be larger than they actually are, because of the money I spent on them. However, if they perform as well as they say, they are worth it. They are very sticky, but if you aren't very good with fiddly things, taking the backing off of these is no easy feat. I had no problem with it, but they are not designed for easy removal. So far, it has stuck to the jacket, but I have yet to put it through the wash. I will update after washing the jacket in a few hours time. It does have a sort of carbon fiber look about it, and it does mostly match the gloss of the jacket. It's good enough that I won't be worried about it not matching or feathers coming out any more. I will report on the functionality once it is washed, too. Size wise, they are small, the largest maybe being 2 inches oval. But since they are small, they are light. And easy to pack while camping or hiking to repair your down items. Read more
These patches work just fine, and were easy to use, but the assorted sizes means there are many patches that are tiny - about the size of a dime. I'd buy them again, but wanted to warn folks that they are small. Read more
Quick and easy, use a safety pin to peel off the backing. Read more
I followed instructions which are very simple, and my patch lasted a little over 24 hours!!! I had to buy some fabric glue and now my second attempt at patching seems to have adhered. Read more
The self-adhesive feature is a game-changer. Applying the patches is a breeze; simply peel off the backing and press them onto the damaged area. The adhesive is strong and creates a secure bond, giving me confidence that the repair will hold up, even in challenging conditions. The self-adhesive nature also eliminates the need for messy glues or time-consuming sewing, making it a quick fix solution. Waterproof and tear-resistant properties make these patches stand out from the competition. I tested them in various weather conditions, including rain and snow, and the patches held up flawlessly. The waterproofing prevented any moisture from seeping through, keeping me warm and dry. Additionally, the tear-resistant material proved its worth when facing branches and rough terrain, ensuring the longevity of the repair.

The packaging includes clear instructions, making the application process foolproof even for those with minimal DIY experience. The variety of colors available is also a thoughtful touch, allowing users to choose patches that seamlessly blend with their jacket's fabric.

I've had a small tear in the end of 1 sleeve on my nylon jacket for over a year. I was thinking I would have to buy a new jacket but fortunately I found this product. It blends in just about perfect. Even knowing that it is there I don't notice it unless I'm specifically looking for it. It is sticking great, especially for the spot I installed it. It wrinkles with the rest of the sleeve and is durable enough where my teeth haven't torn it like I did with the nylon. I previously had a stroke and have to remove that sleeve by holding the end with my teeth while I pull my arm out. Read more
My wife's winter jacket had three small tears in it. This kit worked great! They come in various sizes which was what I needed to repair her coat. One, as you can see, was really a tiny tear, and the smallest patch was perfect so it wouldn't spread. I just poked the stuffing back in, kept the jacket as flat as possible, peeled off the back and stuck them on. Honestly, you really have to look for the patches on her coat in order to see them. The color match for this olive green was so close. The only tiny little trouble my big hands had was to peel off the back in order to stick them on. Their adhesive is really terrific! You just have to be careful you don't let the patch touch itself on the sticky side. We were truly pleased with this product! Read more
