Before applying any repair patches, please wash the garment. Follow the care instructions inside the garment or visit our website: Washing and product care

How to Apply the Repair Patch

Apply the patch on the inside of the garment. Use an iron and place a piece of baking paper between the iron and the patch to protect your gear.

  • Gore-Tex® Paclite and 2-layer Gore-Tex®:
    Set the iron to level 2. Attach the corners of the patch first to avoid wrinkles. Press the iron down for 7 to 8 seconds. Finish by ironing out any air bubbles.

  • 3-layer Gore-Tex® and Gore-Tex® Softshell:
    Set the iron to level 2. Press down firmly for 20 seconds, then smooth out any wrinkles or air bubbles.
