Why repair
Fix it in 60 seconds.

What's in the packet

Clothes Repair Patches for Stretch Fabrics

The Sand packet contains 4 clothing repair patches:

2 repair patches 11 x 7.5 cm (oval, sand)
2 repair patches 5 x 5 cm (cross, sand)

Reliable Repair for Everyday Wear

These clothes repair patches are designed to help restore your favorite garments with a clean, natural-looking finish. The sand color blends well with many neutral fabrics, making it a smart choice for fixing small holes, thin spots, and worn areas without drawing attention. They are especially useful for clothes that need a quick but durable repair, such as jeans, workwear, leggings, activewear, and casual clothing. With a simple application process, they offer an easy way to extend the life of your clothing while keeping it comfortable and wearable.

Flexible Design for Stretch Materials

Made for stretch fabrics, these patches move with the garment instead of feeling stiff or heavy. That flexibility is important when repairing clothing that must bend, pull, or fit closely to the body. Unlike basic fabric fixes, these clothes repair patches help maintain comfort while supporting the damaged area. They are a practical solution for materials that need both strength and flexibility, giving you a repair that holds up during everyday use. Whether the fabric is lightly stretched or frequently worn, the patch is designed to stay in place and support long-lasting performance.

Easy Application and Clean Results

These patches are made for convenience, so you can complete repairs quickly at home without special tools or advanced sewing skills. The process is simple, which makes them a useful option for busy households and last-minute fixes. Once applied correctly, the patch creates a neat finish that helps your clothing look cared for and ready to wear again. Because they are practical and easy to use, these clothes repair patches are a dependable choice for anyone who wants a faster alternative to replacing damaged items. They combine function, comfort, and appearance in one simple repair solution.

A Smart Choice for Longer-Lasting Clothing

Choosing repair patches is an affordable and eco-friendly way to reduce waste and get more use from the clothing you already own. Instead of discarding garments because of small damage, you can fix them and keep them in rotation longer. This sand-colored patch is ideal for people who value both usefulness and a tidy look. It works well for everyday wardrobe maintenance and is especially helpful for extending the life of stretch garments that often wear out in high-friction areas. If you want a simple repair option that supports durability and style, these patches are an excellent choice.

Common questions

FabPatch is designed to last the life of the garment. The adhesive bonds directly to the fabric fibres and holds through normal wear and washing. Stretch is machine washable at up to 40°C. Allow 3 days before the first wash so the adhesive fully sets.
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.

Saved My Favourite!

Crashed my Vespa and put a hole in my very cool, VERY expensive, irreplaceable ski jacket.

Was ready to throw it out and cry.

Instead, used the waterproof version.

MIND-BLOWN. Its now been a year and have used rain and shine and absolutely perfect.

I think it actually makes the jacket look cooler too!

These are like patches from 100 years in the future. The adhesive is magical.

Great product. Only patch I've used on kids clothing that actually works. Well designed also.

Fave pants saved

I LOVE these pants. Well, they were once pants, and then after holes in the knees became shorts. Made from a soft but sturdy linen, I lived in them and cycled in them. Then the holes became too many, and they became my only-at-home pants. Now, maybe too little too late, I've given them hopefully a few more years with @fabpatch.au patches covering most of the holes. (The wear and tear over more than a decade was quite significant!). Wish I'd found the fabpatches sooner....

Fabulous!

So easy to use and the patch has extended the life of my partner's favourite Converse. This colour isn't available anymore so he is very happy he can keep wearing them for the next few years! Definitely recommend if you have shoes that need patching.

Great + simple solution. I used the small patch (little disappointed there was only one small patch in kit) on my Patagonia down puffer jacket + it fixed the issue simple.

Hi Darren, thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review, we really appreciate it. We wanted to mention that the medium and large size patches can be cut down to a smaller size, no smaller than 3cm, which gives great flexibility, we think. Thanks again FabPatch

A great solution to holes

These patches were a great solution to the holes in a pair of track pants. Easy to apply and stretchy :-)

Great product - easy to use and very effective

Great product - easy to use and very effective. I like that they're also easy to cut up to mend smaller holes and save the rest of the patch later.

This is a product that keeps what it promises

This is a product that keeps what it promises in the best possible way! Is so easy to apply and actually sticks to the fabric for good and not just temporarily. I fixed thick jeans, as well as thin t-shirt fabric with them, washed both multiple times meanwhile and they stick and stick and stick... Absolutely amazing!!

We have a dog who loves to scratch our bed sheets

We have a dog who loves to scratch our bed sheets. She has long nails naturally so they leave tears. The patches have been wonderful to repair the damage and have gone through the washing machine and the dryer very happily I’ve used them three times for this purpose and they haven’t failed. I do wait for several days to wash and dry them after application though. They give a flatter repair and less opportunity for her to scratch again.

Fabpatches are the best!

Fabpatches are the best! I first discovered them at a zero waste market and have since bought more for myself and given some to family too.
My husband has actually used them the most so far, as he has trouble with his pants wearing through and splitting down the middle. He's getting so much more life out of them now!!

Car sear cover

I patched a corner of a neoprene car seat cover. It attached very firmly.

1. Clear instructions
2. Arrived in perfect conditions
3. Successfully patched the holes and allowed the shoes to be used rather than dumped.
4. Durability cannot be determined yet.
5. I would have liked more flexibility in range of products offered in each package.

Brilliant solution

Love these patches! I’ve used them to patch up my sneakers which were really torn up from bush walks. Will really extend the life of my shoes. Love the banksia design - would love to be able to order this only or Banksia plus a blue colour patch. But am sure I’ll find a use for the black

Absolutely use this Product!

Fabpatch is easy to apply, and will give new life to old garments. I've used on this product on denim jeans, shorts and even some activewear. A fabulous, innovative, well designed and sustainable alternative to fast fashion and unnecessary landfill.

Fabulous product!

We have a young whippet who loves to chew stuff. Thank goodness for Fabpatch which we have used to repair a number of items- the upholstery on an armchair, a wheatbag and a dog coat. Quick, easy and strong.

really, really great

these patches are fantastic. I had two pair of black leggings that had started to wear through and I’ve patched both of them up with the Shadow Patches. Super easy to affix and they seem really robust, nor have they peeled up around the edges.
It’s great to find a company that’s committed to promoting repair and reuse in a time where fast fashion and consumerism are destroying the planet.

Absolutely love these patches have nearly purchased the whole range. I’m an active outdoor person & have used on tents, packs, & about to patch some hiking boots. Have also used on worn out cuffs of favourite jackets & mend hems on work pants. So easy to use & such an excellent product!

VeRy happy with the result

So glad I stumbled across this product. I don't have time to sew - and haven't picked up the skill as a full-time working mum of a toddler. Fab patch has already breathed live into 4 pieces of clothing in my toddlers wardrobe from from becoming irreparable, as well as repairing a whole in my runners!!

Very quick, simple and easy to use. I've bought 2 packs so they are ready to go. Will be recommending to family and friends!

Kids knees

These have been amazing to find to help me keep repairing the grandchildren's things. I find it difficult to thread a needle these days so these are so quick to use, wear so well and I can keep repairing the holes in knees.
