    The seam at the bottom of my black Eskimo bibs has come apart. Flex Tape,Flex Seal or a patch? Which will work best?

    Several years ago I had a pair of Ice Armor bibs patched at Tarps Inc. in Savage. The patch still looked good after about 5 years when the rest of the bibs were falling apart. The seam they resewed was still waterproof after the repair.

    Why not bust out your 7th grade Home Ec skills and just sew it?

    I sliced mine pretty good with my auger and brought them to a local Tailor in town. 10 bucks and it was repaired nicely

    I took mine to an Amish place out near Osakis that advertises boat tarp production.

    A younger guy named Samuel fixed up a mild tear in the seat my North Face bibs, two mild tears in Striker jacket cuffs, and replaced a leg-length zipper on a pair of Cabela’s bibs for $40 total. Really nice work.

    Just the local seamstress, I brought my new carhartt bibs that had a zipper go bad, in to a local lady I found on Google and she fixed them for 20 bucks. That’s including cost of full hip heavy zipper. She is now the lady I bring stuff to like that. She is in Wyoming mn.
