Reply to comment by DawnQuixote406 in how to patch ember holes in down jacket? by Peacera

Over ten bucks for a single patch that looks like a sticker for children seems crazy to me, though I might just be getting old.

As long as it works, who cares?
That's literally my only concern.

Paying $10 to save a $250+ jacket is a great deal as long as it lasts.

This is my dad’s take and he is almost 80 and loves Costco. On a $398 arcteryx puffer what’s another $30 for patches

Yeah, agreed. Not my thing either, especially at that price. But they seem to be popular!

You mean perfect for patching a kid’s winter coat? And you can get the small ones https://nosopatches.com/product/90s-dazzits/ and if you cut the figures out then that’s 15 of them for $17.99?

Buying them later today!

Ok those are awesome. I love kid's clothes and patterns.

lol I’m buying them for my daughter who is always climbing on stuff and falling down too. They could definitely improve their variety and add more “kid stuff”

Now that you mention it, my kid's funny bandaids don't come off anything in the wash....you may accidentally be on to a cheaper solution!
