About Us

Join the Repair Revolution

Our Story

We are sisters and best friends, Sophie & Megan, from Melbourne, Australia.

While traveling in Finland, and needing to repair wear in pants, Sophie discovered FabPatch, the perfect solution to repairing on the go! With FabPatch having exceeded her expectations under the rigours of travel and constant wear, she told Megan about her exciting discovery. With us both having a pile of damaged clothes we were unable to part with, and excited by the prospect of being able to repair them, we jumped online only to find FabPatch were not available in Australia. This is when an idea was born, we would contact the designers in Finland and bring the product to Australia. Even though we had no experience in retail, being an architect and a secondary school teacher, we believed so deeply in the quality of the product and aware of the horrible statistics around textile waste in landfill, we wanted to do something to help make change. We also knew that there were other Australians who wanted to extend the life of clothes and textiles who just needed an easy and practical way to do it, so they too could be part of the solution.

So, we put together a proposal and our company Sisko was born, to bring FabPatch to Australians. Sisko are importers and Sales Agents of FabPatch. Our mission is to make FabPatch relevant to our society through partnering with Australian designers and artists who love to illustrate the beauty and breath of our country.

Oh, and if you're wondering about the original pants, they're still going strong after more than 2.5 years and 3 additional repairs!

The FabPatch™ Story

In 2017, two Finnish mothers stumbled upon a shared issue: their ever increasing pile of clothes in need of repair. Wasn’t there a way to mend clothes nicely, easily and quickly – without sewing, ironing or glueing? Frustrated by the lack of suitable solutions, they took matters into their own hands and crafted an easy-to-use textile repair innovation. This venture grew into FabPatch, a tribute to collaboration and a commitment to extending the lifespan of beloved garments. FabPatch is today’s solution to an age-old problem – the right innovation at the right time.
