Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Nick in North Face Sallopettes

Hi All

I have a nick on the lower leg of my NF sallopettes. Anyone have any ideas of how to repair this? Is there some form of patch that I can apply over the area to repair it?

Many thanks

This stuff is clear, and has stayed on so far after several trips: http://www.amazon.co.uk/McNett-Tenacious-Tape-Fabric-Repair/dp/B000KBH7S2/?tag=amz07b-21

Second vote for tenacious tape. Used it on a. Pair a few years ago and it did a great job.

If you can keep it neat and tidy then seam grip/seal will give as close to invisible repair as you will get doing it yourself.

In my experience Aquasure is way better than Seamgrip

And when you're done store it in the freezer.

Hi all

Thank you for the replies - really useful. Have opted to try the tape option as seems less mess involved !!

All the best

I have one I've ignored for two seasons now, with no ill effects. I think it makes me look gnarly. Little Angel

I think I did it by lazily treading on my bindings to take the skis off (ie, it's a cut made by a sharp ski edge).

Now srsly..

Many goretex things arrive with patches. Try your local shop. May sell something.

Otherwise duct tape.

Wasn't quite sure what to expect either - I also thought that there maybe a photo of 'Nick', but I am really glad I clicked on here as my daughter's Regatta all in one suit has ripped at the seams and I've now ordered some Seam Grip to fix them (I was just going to bin them!)
