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

Bibs repair?

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.

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.
December 12, 2021 at 8:16 am #2080843Just 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.
