so apparently $50 Hollister jeans cant hold up, because now right on corner of my back pocket, a hole which started and used to be small has now stretched to literally the size of a quarter or bigger.
ive been puttin duct tape on the inside to cover it when i go to school & work.. but it looks kinda retarded.
wut can i use to cover it?
someone said patches.. but unless im stupid that would be like a patch over the outside right? which would look pretty dumb on my butt.

Here's something my mom did when hers were starting to rip.
She went to Wal-Mart, bought a patch and I believe she brought them to the dry cleaners and had them sew it in. Or another simple thing to do is to just bring them back and tell them that they ripped. Unless they are older, then you cant.
Maybe you could duct tape the patch on the inside of your jeans. [ xstephh34x's advice column | Ask xstephh34x A Question ]

There's a place that i read about where they sew up your jeans for like $7 an inch so if you only need one inch, that's about the price of a patch anyway. that's basically your only alternatives besides sewing denim material to the inside so it shows on the outside and it's not an akward color. <3 [ LoveNJstyle's advice column | Ask LoveNJstyle A Question ]

If you are capable of hand stitching (which isn't hard) hand stitch the patch to the inside of your jeans - or just stitch the hole together.
Neuronautas answered Friday June 1 2007, 3:09 am: A patch is the only way to cover it. And you don't need a sewing machine.
And why exactly would a patch look retarded? especially compared to duck tape.
