Title: Replacing the velcro on pads
Post by: richthekeeper on February 01, 2019, 01:12:39 PM

Anybody have any tips on how to replace the Velcro on pad straps?

My blank bats pads are still in great condition and are super comfy, but the Velcro is falling apart so the straps aren't so secure anymore. I think if I could replace the Velcro I could prolong their life. Any suggestions?

Any decent tailor should be able to assist if they can work a sewing machine. You can buy white 20mm wide Velcro by the metre pretty cheaply.

You could also buy the velcro and get a cobbler such as Timpsons to do it
