Rothco GI Style Sewing Repair Kit

Field Sewing Repair Kit

A popped button or a split seam is a small problem until you are days from home with no way to fix it. The Rothco GI Style Sewing Repair Kit packs thread, needles, buttons, snaps and a pair of scissors into a compact OD green nylon pouch that clips to a belt or pack strap. It suits hikers, campers, hunters and anyone building a bug-out bag who wants basic clothing and gear repairs covered.

Features

• Six Spools Of Thread — Two gray, two olive drab, one white and one black spool cover most civilian clothing and military-colored gear.
• Hand-Sewing Needles — Several needles in different lengths handle both fine stitching and heavier fabric.
• Needle Threader — A thin wire loop pulls thread through the needle eye, which helps with cold fingers or poor light.
• Folding-Size Scissors — Small orange-handled scissors with metal blades cut thread and trim frayed edges.
• Replacement Buttons — Two black and two white four-hole buttons replace lost buttons on shirts and trousers.
• Sew-On Snap Fasteners — Four metal snaps restore closures on pockets, flaps and cuffs.
• Thimble And Safety Pins — An orange plastic thimble protects your fingertip while pushing a needle, and three safety pins make quick temporary fixes.
• Tape Measure — A short inch-marked tape measure is included for sizing patches and seams.

Pouch And Carry

Everything stores in an OD green (olive drab) nylon pouch styled after GI-issue field pouches, with nylon webbing reinforcing both sides. A flap with a metal snap keeps the contents in, and a small grommet at the bottom lets water drain out. On the back, a black plastic slide clip fastens the pouch to a belt, pack strap or load-bearing gear.
