Clothing Repair/Patching
Posted: Tue Feb 11, 2020 1:09 pm
I've got some REI Talusphere rain pants that have acquired some holes in the knees. I need to patch them up. My initial reaction was to just duct tape them shut like the Engineering Flowchart says, but I figure I'd ask around if anyone had any good experiences with the various patch kits (like this one, or that one).
I bought them on REI used for like $40, and I wear these things pretty often. They're a great wind & snow barrier in addition to rain. And they zip open on the sides, which makes for easy venting while I'm ski touring or climbing. So I suppose I want something a little more durable than just tape.
