MATCH 'N PATCH Realistic Leather Repair Tape - Durable, Easy-to-Apply, Professional Grade, Versatile Use, Designed in North Carolina for Furniture Restoration & DIY - Dark Brown, 2.25 inch x 15 feet

I received a leather couch, second hand, so I wasn't really willing to put a lot of money into repairing it. My dog does not take kindly to fireworks and ripped the heck out of the cushions. Laurel I ordered was for a dark brown couch and it matched perfectly. More importantly, it is thin enough to be smooth, while at the same time, extremely strong and durable. It is very easy to use and the box gives you a wonderful tip of putting a little oil (I used vegetable oil) to wipe on the scissor blades so that they don't become gummy from the adhesive. It cuts extremely well and the adhesive adheres to the leather flawlessly and holds up remarkably well. I highly recommend!

I have purchased many brands of leather repair tape on here and all have been a complete waste of money - until now.This tape is awesome. It does not peel, is an order of magnitude stickier than the rest, and matches perfectly. All the other varieties seem to be the same faulty tape, differently branded; this is unique, and a lifesaver.

I want to start by saying that I tried two different leather/vinyl patch kits before I bought this tape. One of them I bought on Amazon (see my other reviews). Because the tear in my bench was at/near seams, the patch kits that involve putting a fabric substrate under the tear and using a vinyl adhesive DON'T WORK. In fact, after applying all that vinyl glue, the tears looked even worse than they did before. This tape was sort of my last hope of covering up some big ugly rips and keeping it from getting worse.Our 4 year old son is autistic and jumps off of EVERYTHING. ALL. DAY. LONG. This leather/vinyl storage bench (which we use to store all of his toy trains and tracks) clearly just couldn't handle the amount of climbing on a jumping that it has had to endure over the last year even though it's of pretty decent quality (purchased at RC Willey). We're thinking of sending him on a college tour to teach frat boys how to trash houses more quickly and efficiently. In the meantime, if my husband and I threw out and replaced every piece of furniture that our son has destroyed, we would be bankrupt by now, but we also don't want our home to look like a dumpster.Enter this 'last hope' tape. After the epic fail of the early attempts to repair the tears using kits, I had VERY low expectations of this product. I figured if it sort of matched and kept the tears from getting bigger, it would be a win. In short, I was very delightfully surprised and pleased with the result! Before I go any further, let me just get your expectations where they should be. This is leather colored tape. Period. Ok? Are we on the same page? Great. Let's continue. My storage bench is a dark brown leather/vinyl, so I bought the dark brown version of the tape. The match certainly isn't perfect, but close enough! The tape is more chocolate colored than our bench which has a little more red tones in it, but I doubt anything else would be closer. See pics.What I love about this tape is it's completely idiot proof, which I always appreciate. If you can be trusted with scissors, you can use this product. Fixing my tears was so quick and easy and I'm really pleased with the result! Up close you can definitely see it, but from 10ft away it's invisible (and I have 20/15 vision in both eyes)! See the pictures I included of up close vs 7ft away vs across the room. Guests in our home probably won't even notice it which was not the case before! Also, there is a leather-like grain printed on the tape. It's not extremely pronounced but I think is a nice feature.What I don't love as much about this tape is1) It isn't a perfect color match, but again, is close enough. I think they would do well to offer more colors with subtle differences in tone.2) I had hoped that, like duct tape, it had more of a thick "fabric" feel to it, but on the contrary, this is very tape-y tape.3) I would've loved for the underside/sides of the tape to not be white. The white edges, while very thin, are definitely visible up close, and should it start to peel up in the future will be very noticeable.All in all, for $9 I'm thrilled with the result and would ABSOLUTELY buy this again and recommend to other buyers, assuming you have appropriate expectations (that it's TAPE not leather or vinyl). This has saved what was an eyesore piece of furniture and will enable us to keep it at least another year or so. So far it has held up to our son climbing and jumping and he hasn't even noticed it! I hope this has helped some other poor soul in the same situation!I did NOT receive this item free or at a discount

I'm disappointed in having to leave less than a 5 star review for this particular tape. I've purchased the wood-grain colored tape to cover cords on my hardwood floor and it worked amazingly well. So much so that when I decided to move furniture around and had to remove the tape, no residue was left behind. It lifted right up. Yet the sticking power on this tape was less than satisfactory. The leather color is superb...so if you're purchasing this to use on a leather flat surface, you'll be fine. But I had to use this to seal areas on a leather couch that my dog got a hold of - it was the cushion edges part of the couch. So although from a distance, the leather matched up surprisingly well, the sticking power was sub-par. I found after a few days, the edges would roll up a bit. It's now just covering it and has no sticking power at all. It's been cold so it's possible in the warmer months, the sticky residue will hold better. So the long and short of it is if you need these tapes for flat surfaces, it's a 5 out of 5. For uneven surfaces, beware.

I was hesitant to throw away our not-so-old sofa, so I started looking for something to hide or cover the tear. That’s when I stumbled upon this product—I never even knew such things existed!It matches my sofa color perfectly, the adhesive is strong, and it’s easy to use. I highly recommend this product—now my sofa will last even longer. Very happy!

One of my bags was torn up and falling apart. I retaped the outside, and created new holes with proper rivets to hold the straps in place. Looks great, very happy to recommend to anyone who needs a quick patch.

We have a recliner that was developing cracks and little tears, so I bought this tape to patch them. The color was almost a perfect match and it stuck on well, covering the tears and cracks.I was very happy with it at first, then after about aweek and a half of normal use, I noticed the tape was cracking and splitting too.There isn’t much tape on a roll, so it doesn’t cover much and it is expensive for what little you get.I ended up having to use duct tape over this tape and the duct tape is holding up better, but doesn’t look nearly as nice.

We don't use our couch often, but one of my dogs had rubbed his face on the corner til the leather was gone. Our love seat, we live in as by seen by the coloring wearing off. Our couch/loveseat is what called "Chocolate Brown", so I ordered the dark brown tape. Almost a perfect match and I'm guessing after a few months, you won't be to tell on the corner that we taped it. Even the "print" on the tape matched!! Extremely pleased with my purchase!! It's thick like duct tape and super sticky too, so be careful! Plenty of tape for several small repairs or maybe a couple of bi repairs.
