If you’re looking for a quick solution to revive your flared, mom, or boyfriend jeans, and you’re not comfortable with thread and needle, fear not! The solution is simple: grab an instrument commonly used for packaging or assembly work and let’s get started!
Using Duct Tape to Repair Jeans with Holes in the Crotch
Whether the hole is small or large, there’s no need to sew it up conventionally as it may reopen quickly. One of the easiest solutions is to use a piece of duct tape.
- Turn the jeans inside out, stretch the fabric, and cut any excess threads.
- Place a folded towel inside the jeans, specifically on the tear.
- Gather the edges of the tear, place a strip of tape over it, and pass the tip of a hot iron.
- Remove the tape, protecting your hands, releasing a light layer of glue.
- Place a piece of jeans of the same color inside, ensuring a 2cm margin.
- Use the hot iron again until the piece adheres, then cut off the excess fabric.
There you have it – your jeans are ready to hit the town!
