Anyone have any recommendations on patches to use on rain gear? My Yukon pants had a rough go of it in Alaska and have tears and punctures in them now. Only use in Alaska once a year and don’t want to outright buy a new pair.

Thanks!

I have had good luck with tenacious tape. Less well on stretchy th8ngs. It last longer on the inside of the garment.

Had one big rip in a jacket that I hand sewed and seem sealed. It was ugly but worked fine.

Thanks for the recommendations. Tenacious tape didn’t cross my mind.

I have used tenacious tape on my rain gear with great success. If it doesn't stick great, I've used some seam sealer on material such as my gaiters.

shoe goo is another option depending on the material. that's kind of a go to for waders.
