ORIGINAL VS LOOSE THREAD

Both the Original and Loose Tatter Patch protect your garment from further damage, once you accidentally put your foot going through a perfect hole or tear. They also allow you to make your own distressed denim look.

The Original Tatter Patch is a sturdy fabric patch that mimics the appearance of distressed thread, with a hint of skin peeking out. It can be cut to a smaller size(s), and the appearance of the skin is a translucent backing that allows your skin to show through the backing without coming through your hole or tear.

The Loose Thread Tatter Patch is a less sturdy version of the original patch that mimics the appearance of distressed thread. This patch can NOT be cut to a smaller size or shape. However, once applied, the translucent backing is trimmed out, leaving the loose thread and your skin exposed and peeking out between the loose thread.

WHAT'S MY SIZE?

Non-stretch or loose-fitting jeans – Measure hole or tear at its widest and longest point. Add 1.50” to the length and width for adhesive bonding.

Stretch or tight skinny jeans – Since Tatter Patch is not a stretchy product it is not recommended for stretchy / tight denim. Causing the patch to pop off tight, stressed areas if applied incorrectly. However, there is a way to apply once you have figured out the right size:

First put your garment on. Next measure your hole or tears at its widest and longest point while sitting down or in whatever position that might cause the patch to pop off easily strain and tightness.

Be sure to add 1.50” to the length and width for the adhesive bonding process.
