anyone buy clomid online and got pregnant As someone who loves spending time outdoors, I was excited to try out NoSo Patches when my puffy jacket developed a tear. The patches are designed to repair holes and tears in outdoor gear, and they lived up to their promise.

http://ramblingfisherman.com/2011/10/stamp-river-fishing-report-oct-12-2011/ What I appreciated most about the NoSo Patches was how easy they were to use. After cleaning the area around the tear, I peeled off the backing from the patch and applied it to the damaged area. The adhesive was strong and durable, keeping the patch in place even during outdoor activities.

I was initially concerned that the patch would compromise the insulation of my puffy jacket, but I was pleased to find that the NoSo Patch was thin and flexible, adding no extra bulk to my gear. Plus, the patch came in a variety of colors and patterns, allowing me to choose one that matched my jacket or added a fun pop of color.

After using the jacket with the NoSo Patch on a cold and windy day, I was impressed with how well it held up. There was no loss of insulation or feather leakage, and the patch stayed in place despite the harsh conditions. The patch also showed no signs of peeling or wearing away after multiple washings.

Overall, I highly recommend the NoSo Patches for repairing holes in puffy jackets or any other outdoor gear. They are easy to use, durable, and do not compromise the insulation or appearance of the gear. NoSo Patches are an excellent solution to extend the life of your outdoor gear and save money on costly repairs or replacements.

Pros:

Versatile, adhesive, and washable

Cons:

Need some smaller patches in each pack

review-noso-puffy-patches<h5>Coverage</h5> <p>The patches provide ample coverage for even large tears (up to 4.5 inches), which is awesome. However, in the event of a smaller tear, it'd be nice to have a couple of smaller patches in the pack. The smallest patches are currently two inches wide, so it'd be nice to have something one inch or less.</p> <h5>Design</h5> <p>The patches come in a variety of shapes and colors. Some of my favorites were the fish and mustaches, but there are also standard cross patches, as well as hearts and stars. I think it'd be nice to see a couple more patches that represent popular oudoor activities, too. Perhaps, mountains, ski boots, ski hat, a snowboard or mountain-bike helmet? Animal shapes would be cool, too. A spirit-animal pack?</p> <h5>Anti-gumming/fraying</h5> <p>To test this out, I washed my Patagonia nano puff which I had mended using two NoSo patches and so far, so good. The stress of the wash didn't affect the patches' adhesive properties at all.</p> <h5>Washability</h5> <p>Again, the machine wash (on delicate) went well. The patches stayed put and there was no moisture leakage into the tears.</p> <h5>Value</h5> <p>At less than $15 a pack, NoSo Puffy Patches are certainly affordable. They'll actually save you money, too. The patches will prevent you from dropping another $100 to $200 bones on a new puffy sans holes.</p> <h5>Use</h5> <p>This versatile product is for anyone who uses a puffy of any kind, that includes jackets, mid-layers, vests, sleeping bags and nano-puff camping boots and mittens.You'd be hard-pressed to find any outdoorswomen without at least one puffy product. The NoSo patches are also handy in repairing a variety of other items including backpacks and outerwear. It's a great addition to any camping box, too, as you never know when tears can strike. </p>
