FabPatch is built around a simple idea: the gear and clothing you already own should last longer. These rub-on patches make it easy to repair tears, worn spots and small holes without sewing, helping keep well-used pieces in action instead of heading for landfill. Whether it is hiking pants, rain jackets, merino layers, bags or everyday apparel, FabPatch offers practical textile repair patches that support quick fixes at home, on the road or out in the field. For anyone who values well-made gear and wants to get more life from it, FabPatch makes repair feel easy, accessible and worth doing.
At the heart of the brand is a clear commitment to repair, reuse and circularity. FabPatch encourages a more thoughtful way to care for clothing and equipment by helping extend wear, reduce waste and normalise mending as part of everyday life. From discreet fixes to visible mending, the range includes fabric mending patches, stretch patches, merino wool patches and decorative patches that make it easier to maintain the pieces you already rely on. It is a smart choice for anyone looking to reduce unnecessary replacement, support longer gear life and make more sustainable decisions around clothing and outdoor equipment.
FabPatch is a high-quality textile repair patch designed to make clothing and gear repair quick and easy. Instead of sewing or using an iron, FabPatch is applied by rubbing it firmly into place, making it a simple option for fixing holes, tears and worn areas at home, while travelling or out on the trail. The range includes different colours, shapes, prints and materials, so repairs can be practical, discreet or part of a visible mending approach.
FabPatch can be used to patch, cover and repair many types of washed textiles. It is suitable for clothing, bags, hats, gloves, cushions, beanbags, curtains and more, making it a versatile option for both apparel and gear. It works especially well on fabrics that have already been washed several times, which makes it a strong fit for well-used clothing and outdoor gear that still has plenty of life left in it.
Yes, both. FabPatch is designed to be applied to the outside of clothing, and this makes it a great option for visible mending or adding character with decorative patches. It can also be used on the inside of clothing for a more discreet repair. For garments worn close to the skin, softer options such as merino wool patches or stretch patches are often the best choice for comfort.
FabPatch is made for simple, tool-free repair. Peel the patch away from the liner, place it over the damaged area and rub it firmly with a blunt object such as a spoon for one to two minutes. For larger holes, it helps to place another patch or a small piece of fabric behind the damaged area for support. The garment can be used straight away, but the adhesive should be left to set for at least three days before the first wash for the best long-term result.
No. One of the biggest advantages of FabPatch is that it does not require sewing, specialist tools or a traditional repair setup. The rub-on application makes it easy to use almost anywhere, which is particularly useful for quick repairs at home, on road trips, while camping or during multi-day walks where a small tear could otherwise get worse.
Yes. FabPatch can be trimmed to suit the shape and size of the repair, which makes it more flexible across different garments and damage types. It is best not to cut pieces smaller than around 3 cm, as enough adhesive surface is needed for a durable hold. Rounded edges are also recommended, as sharp corners are more likely to lift over time.
The lifespan of a FabPatch depends on several factors, including the fabric it is attached to, how well it is rubbed into place, where it is positioned on the garment, and how soon the item is washed. FabPatch notes that patches have lasted more than five years under heavy use and washing, although results vary depending on the textile and how the repair is treated. Giving the adhesive proper setting time and following the care instructions will help maximise durability.
Yes, once the adhesive has had time to set. FabPatch recommends waiting at least three days before the first wash, as this helps the patch bond more strongly to the fabric. For the Stretch range, garments should be washed at no more than 40°C, and tumble drying is suitable. Dry cleaning and detergents with softeners are not recommended, and care should always be matched to both the patch and the garment.
FabPatch Stretch is weather resistant, making it a practical option for light rain, splashes and everyday outdoor use. It is a great choice for repairing clothing and gear that see regular wear, while still offering the flexibility and soft feel that make it especially useful across active and everyday fabrics.
