Repair Patches

If you've got a hole or two in your gear, consider adding adhesive patches to your rep kit.

Available in clear or colored versions, these patches provide durability against moisture, punctures, Rep Kit saltwater, sunlight and temperature extremes.

If your kit does not contain any of the above products, consider adding a bag with waterproof Aquaseal wader repair sealant.
