SINGER Instant Fix Double-Sided Hem Tape - 3/4" w x 5 yds

I bought a jumpsuit and there was a shipping mishap, so it was delivered two days before the party I was going to; too late to bring to a tailor. I used this to temporarily hem the bottom. Following another reviewer's advice I put on the night before and did not wear right away. I had no problems with the hem moving or coming down, and I did a lot of walking and dancing. The material I used it on was a polyester/elastane blend. While I will be bringing this to a tailor to permanently shorten, I would not hesitate to use this again if necessary or to recommend to anyone. One con was that it was a little hard to separate the tape from the backing, but I found that if I did it slowly, and not remove all of the backing at once, I had more control over it and overall it was even. So turning it inside out, on each pant leg I did one long strip on each side (back and front), folded it over, and pressed it smooth. It was easy to fix any mistakes or areas that were not smooth. Great product!

It works great, just as promised. No iron needed. Very easy to use. Came in the mail very quickly.

A little hard to separate tape from paper, but once done worked well as substitute for hemming pants.

Did not work as described. You are better off using double-sided tape for a temporary fix.

Works great. Beats getting out the sewing machine.

I ruined a $2,000 gown with this stuff. Specifically purchased this tape because it was “removable”; I borrowed the dress from a friend who is a few inches taller than me and needed a temporary adjustment to the length. This seemed to fit the bill perfectly —and my hope was that it would keep the dress in better condition by not poking holes with safety pins. In terms of application and stability, it worked great — but the removal has been the bane of my existence, and my latest attempt to get it off (after trying four different methods, I resorted to goo gone) ruined the fabric of the lining. This is obviously a nightmare scenario as I now have to explain to the friend from whom I’ve borrowed, and come up with a replacement solution. So yes, it is a tape that provides a hem, and in that way it lives up to its promise. But buyer beware: be prepared to give your item a permanent hem because the gunk from this tape is *never* coming off of whatever fabric it touches.

SINGER Instant Hem Tape, 3/4-Inch by 15 inch I have used on many of my clothes that need hemming and it works great.

It's a Singer product. I don't question their quality. I just expect it to be of high quality and have never been let down.

Muy buen producto, me sirvió mucho! Llego muy bien! Tamaño perfecto!

This product is great. I did not have time to have my suit altered before an event. This did the trick. I used the tape the night before I wore the suit pants. The product is very sticky, so you have to take your time using this. You can unpeel it quickly if you mess up on it and repressed the right length. The only challenge for this was peeling off the second side of the tape. I haven't washed the pants yet so I am not sure how it will come off. Conclusion: If you are in a situation and don't have time to get something tailored. This product is your best friend

Works very well. Used to turn up some heavy curtains so the bottom no longer drags on the floor.

Bought it to hem white trousers. I didn't realise that it came off when washed. Given that it was for white it had a very short shelf life as I had to wash them after wearing them once or twice. I think any double sided tape would have worked just as well as it is a very temporary fix.
