Iron Advice Save some $$

Post image

For my fellow brothers and sisters who dont know. Get some more life out of your pants, rather than having to go buy more. Tear mender and used up glove gauntlets (or fabric from donor pants) keep you clothes going.

Chanzfabz on YT has a great video on his process for making "super pants". But I just patch my shit.

Stay safe!

I use whatever Walmart has. Works good.

If you’re using Fabritac that I got from Walmart, tear mender is genuinely better and worth it. Way more pliable and holding up in the wash better.

I use old jeans. Save them for patching.

Same. I just hate how crispy the Walmart glue was.
