    Knee slider VelcroŽ replacement for suit

    Technically it's called hook and loop as VelcroŽ is a brand name but does anyone know where to find the replacement loop pads for knee sliders or at least material that I can cut myself?

    Re: Knee slider VelcroŽ replacement for suit

    Try to look for a cheap back support brace , I have 3 or 4 old ones. But for your suit go buy a new one , you can't buy good velcro for the price of a back brace. And if you find velcro that big with self adheasive ,DON'T USE IT , even the best adheasive does not stick long on flexable serface , and if you try to sew with the glued velcr , it sticks to the needle and thread and makes a mess. I have personal learning experiance with this mess. The back braces I used to wear , I would get at home depot or walmart , and the velcro seems to last

    I have a guy who is close to my location that I wanna use but sourcing this material is something new for him. I chose to do the footwork on this so he can concentrate on repairing my tore up Kobe in addition to modifying the Teknic I also gave him.

    I decided to give him a try on a couple of my spare suits to test his quality. I'm hoping it works out since he's about 20 minutes from me and his prices on repairs and lettering is very good.
