What a great invention! I am happy to say i was able to try this product for free and have come to realize how often i can see this product being useful. I love the fact that it is adjustable and removable, thus not permanent. I have recently used it on my child's pant halloween costume as it was too long. At first i was not sure on how to use it, but once trying it out, i was able to shorten the pants and it is nice knowing it can be undone. It turned out to be easy to use as it was great to be able to customize it and if done incorrectly, could remove it and try again; i was impressed with the result. This definitely saves me from having to get it hemmed and this way, so easy to remove and to gain the length back. It was definitely effortless and efficient as it took little time. I would definitely purchase this product as it would be handy, especially in a quick fix predicament.
I had to use this product on my grandma's pants the other day. It was very easy to use and so far has stayed put! this product works great.
I love the Scotch Essentials Adjustable Hem Tape. The fact that I measure 5"0 is the biggest reason I need this tape. I think it is a pretty cool concept and love the results. It's very easy to apply the tape and helps me save money buy heming my pants on my own instead of bringing them to a seamstress for hemming.
The only thing I did not like about this product is the instructions on the packaging. I do not think that the instructions are very good. The pictures are very small and you cannot really tell what they are showing. It also does not tell you how many strips to use. I ended up using 2 strips per pant leg but I think 4 strips would have been better. I will be trying 4 strips next time. 2 Strips did the trick but I find that the pants tend to slip a little on the sides (since I put the strips on the front and back of the pants).
Another little problem I found was that everytime I put my pants on, my toes get stuck in the extra pants that are folded on the inside.
Overall, this is a definite buy for me :) It does the trick when you are in a hurry and don't want to go see a seamstress.
This product is genius. I always have the problem where I wear sandals or flats in the summer causing my pants to be too long. In the winter, it's too short when I wear heels or boots. Very easy to use and now I don't have to buy a second pair of pants for just the length. Should be in all clothes stores.
Was sent this by chickadvisor to try it, it worked well like it advertised; Would recommend this to anyone looking at this to buy.
This is an amazing product that I will be keep in my sewing kit at all times. It is so fast and easy to use and lasts!!! I have tried other hem tapes in the past that fall apart after only half a day.
If you have growing kids Scotch Essentials Adjustable Hem Tape is an incredible invention!
My guys seem to grow like weeds, and buying new pants is not always an option. This Adjustable Hem Tape is exactly what I need; it grows with my kids : ) It is so easy to use, even the kids can help! Just last week I bought a pair of pants that were too long in the leg, so I measured the length of the pant, placed the tape at the right length and folded over the pants pressing down firmly ( or you can use an iron for crisper results) it took no time at all and they look great. The best part is in a few weeks when my son grows again: i don't buy him a new pair, I simply can do it over again! With out all the fuss of actually sewing. Scotch Essentials Adjustable Hem Tape is a Fantastic time and money saver!
This product is a work of a genius. It is clear and peels off easy. I like that I could apply to hem my Jeans and curtains. I did not want to cut my curtains or jeans. Thank you @ChickAdvisor for allowing me to try this amazing product! I have always disliked sewing. I no longer have to worry about my pants being too long.
Many a time, if my pants were too long, I would grab whatever tape I happened to have on hand (ie. scotch tape, packing tape, duct tape) and apply it to the inside of my hem to shorten them. Well, thanks to Scotch Essentials Adjustable Hem Tape, those days are over! This product is amazing and so easy to use! I applied 2 hem tape strips to each pant leg, which was probably overkill but I'm dealing with an active 5 year old boy so I wanted extra security. Peel off backing, apply to hem, peel off double-sided backing, fold up pant leg, press and voila, problem was solved. No one would ever notice. NO bunching at all. I have about 7 pairs of pants, mine & my son's, that require use of this product. I will most definitely be purchasing this product again and highly recommend it! It really is worth every penny!
