Description of πŸ‘™ Porcelynne Black Bra Hook and Eye Replacement Closure – 2 Rows – 1 1/2" Wide – Silver Hardware – (1 Pair)

One pair of hook & eye tape contain 2 pieces, the hook side and the eye side. The eyes are generally on the right side of the garment and the hooks are on the left. Our hooks & eyes are heat sealed on the edges. They are made from nylon tricot with bonded edges and have a plush back for comfort. The hooks and eyes can be zigzagged over the edge to reduce irritation from the fuse cut edges for sensitive skin. These closures contain three columns of eyes for adjusting, spaced 1/2” apart. The hardware is nickel free. Besides bra making, hook & eye closures are often found in bralettes, garter belts, sports bras, corsets, bustier, body shapers, athletic and compression garments that require versatility in adjusting sizes. May also be adapted as an extender on existing closures, or to repair and replace broken bra hardware on a bra to give it a second life. Tip: When initially fitting a custom bra, the hooks and eyes should be in their loosest position. As fabrics and elastics wear over time, the additional column of eyes is used to tighten the garment to prolong the life of a bra. Be sure to browse our other lingerie and bra making supplies to complete your sewing project’s needs. The entire Porcelynne catalog can be used to create either new custom lingerie items or can be used to repair damaged bras. During the Covid-19 outbreak, many of our supplies have been repurposed from their original purpose of bra making to make masks with adjustable straps. Check out our entire product line for more supplies to fit your needs.

Good construction, if a bit too thick

The buckles protrude quite a bit and are visible under tight clothing which can be ugly. It's also very thick and hard to see on existing straps.

Pros
  • A pair of Velcro straps has two parts: the hook side and the loop side. The eyelets are usually on the right side of the garment and the hooks are on the left. The edges of our hooks and eyes are heat sealed. They're made from nylon jersey with taped edges and a padded back for comfort. Hooks and eyes can zigzag around the edges to reduce irritation of sensitive skin from the cut edges of the fuse. These fasteners contain three rows of adjustment lugs spaced 1/2 inch apart.
Cons
  • Low repairability

Good construction but too thick

The buckles are slightly protruding and visible under tight clothing, which can be unsightly. Also, they are very thick and difficult to see on existing tapes.

Pros
  • The entire Porcelynne catalog can be used to create new bespoke lingerie or repair damaged bras. During the Covid-19 outbreak, many of our stocks have been repurposed from their original purpose of making bras into masks with adjustable straps.

High quality hook closure

I bought a pair of these to convert my sports bras into hook and eye closures for easier on and off. It worked great for this application. These hook clasps are well made, very strong and good quality. To me, they're not fat at all and don't shine through thin t-shirts. Sewing was easy too. Will buy more of these for similar uses.

Pros
  • Nickel free hardware. In addition to making bras, hook and loop fasteners are commonly used in bralettes, garter belts, sports bras, corsets, bustiers, corsets, athletic wear, and compression garments that require flexibility in sizing. Can also be used as an extension of existing clasps or to repair and replace broken bra hardware to give it a second life.
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
