Review on 🧥 Dritz 55230-2 Dark Brown Suede Cowhide Elbow Patches, 4-3/4 x 6-1/4-Inch, Set of 2 by Tara Ford

Item damaged by packaging

Excellent elbow pads. It's a nice thick leather with pre-holes for easy hand sewing and I look forward to wearing it over my wife's dark wool sweater. If it weren't for the manufacturer's packaging, I would rate it higher. was uncomfortable and harmful to plasters. A giant staple held them together with a cardboard hat. It was difficult to gently unzip and remove the zipper, and no matter how smoothly this clip detaches, it leaves two very noticeable holes in each patch. I don't know if these holes will be less visible once the patches are in place, but it's a pity that such a good product is immediately (and unnecessarily) damaged by such poor packaging. There is one more thing to note. too much of. The instructions for them state that they can only be dry cleaned and should be worn with clothing darker than the skin tone. Of course, if you deviate from those two rules, it's a good idea to remove the patches before washing - a task that seems ridiculously time-consuming. I would be interested to know whether leather colors are actually washed out during dry cleaning.
