A place to learn about Everything in Hook and Loop!™
Custom patches are a fast and easy way to customize jackets, sweaters, shirts and even pants. This is why they have become a favorite of the military, law enforcement and athletic organizations. Combining patches with hook and loop fasteners makes them easy to remove for cleaning the garment, or to change out when needed. With that in mind, here’s how to make custom VELCRO® Brand patches.
Since its invention back in the 1940s, VELCRO® Brand hook and loop fasteners have proven remarkably versatile. From hanging art to closing spacesuits, hook and loop fasteners have found applications in all sorts of areas—including beauty. For example, VELCRO® Brand rollers are known for their ability to add bounce, volume and curl to straight hair. What’s more, they can work with or without heat. Here’s a look at how VELCRO® Brand fasteners work, and how to use VELCRO® Brand rollers.
The ability of VELCRO® Brand hooks to cling to fabrics makes the product both handy and versatile. However, like so many other useful tools, VELCRO® Brand hooks can sometimes need maintenance. In this case, their propensity to hold on to hair, lint and dust can be problematic, unless you know how to remove hair from VELCRO® Brand hooks. And, it can be much easier to do when you understand how it works.
The hooks and loops we know as the VELCRO® Brand fastening system have a myriad of uses, ranging from hair curlers to spacesuits. Ironically though, the system’s mechanics make it vulnerable to failure. The hooks lose their ability to grip if they get clogged with hair, dust, or lint.
We all know and love VELCRO® Brand hooks and loops for their versatility. The uses are almost limitless, as long as you pay attention to the way it works and what it likes to do. In this case, if you’re wondering will VELCRO® Brand hooks stick to felt, the answer is an absolute yes — as long as you’re using the right kind of felt, and the right kind of hooks.
