Why repair
Fix it in 60 seconds.
Wear it for another decade.
Most things we throw away don't need to be replaced — they just need the right patch. FabPatch is built to last the life of the garment, soft, flexible, and designed to bond so well it becomes part of the fabric.
60 sec Time to complete a repair
40°C Machine washable · lasts the life of the garment
$250 What your shoes cost. Saving them costs less than a coffee.
Australians send 220,000 tonnes of clothing to landfill every year. Every FabPatch repair is one less item in the ground. You're not just fixing shoes – you're choosing to keep them.

What's in the packet

Black shoes just got their stealth fix

The Shoe Repair Kit contains 6 patches:

2 patches 5 x 3.5 cm (black)
2 patches 6.5 x 4.5 cm (black)
2 patches 7 x 10 cm (black)

Built for the wear shoes actually take

Scuffed toes, split seams, worn heels, a hole where your sock keeps peeking through. FabPatch Shoe Repair handles the inside and outside of a shoe, so sneakers, school shoes, hiking boots and work boots are all fair game.

Rub on, walk out

No glue, no stitching, no trip to the cobbler. Rub the patch on firmly for a minute and it's done. Give it three days to fully set before you take it out for a proper test.

Blends right in

On black shoes, the repair all but disappears. On anything else, it reads as a deliberate detail rather than a fix. Either way, your shoes stay in the rotation instead of the bin.

Materials

A durable, abrasion-resistant and water-repellent polyamide-elastane blend (91% polyamide, 9% elastane), suitable for use both inside and outside the shoe.

Common questions

Denim, jersey, fleece, cotton, nylon and woven and stretch fabrics. So activewear, kids clothing, jeans, jackets, backpacks, and trainers. Works for both external visible repairs and discrete internal repairs. For wool and knitwear use the Merino range. For heavy outdoor gear, tents or raincoats use the Extreme range.
Yes. all patches can be cut to any shape or size with scissors, keeping a minimum dimension of 3cm for sufficient adhesive bonding. This makes one pack suitable for multiple repairs of different sizes.
Place a small piece of fabric, sandwiched between the patch and the garment repair or place a patch on the outside and one inside the fabric.
Stretch is water resistant — suited to general clothing, activewear, denim, and backpacks. Extreme is fully weatherproof — built for tents, boots, raincoats, and gear that gets heavily wet or takes hard wear. If in doubt: heavily wet or hard-wearing → Extreme. Everything else → Stretch.
Wait 3 days before the first wash as the adhesive needs time to fully set. Machine wash up to 40°C, no bleach or fabric softener. Safe to tumble dry and iron.
Yes. Stretch patches work well applied from the inside for a discrete repair. The material is soft enough to sit against skin comfortably.
