  • Areet, would appreciate some repair advice.

    The older Blackburn saddle pack is almost entirely supported by one webbing strap. Despite careful use one end has pulled away - so the whole thing’s destined for the bin unless I can repair it.

    The issue is that the material it attaches to partially tore. I’m not sure it will hold any new stitches without a patch.

    This material is also backed by a red liner with a plastic insert sandwiched in between.

    Any advice on how best to attempt to sew the webbing back on? Try patch the material it attached to before? Or go all the way through the plastic and red liner? Thanks!

  • Go all the way through. You will struggle to repair it as-new; as soon as you disassemble the bag layers it will never go back the same again.

    Get someone with a shoe patcher or bar tacker to stitch through, then use seam seal on the inside.
