Hi ladies
I can't sew at all, sadly. I just got a great deal on school uniform pants for my son, but the pants don't have reinforced knees. I wanted to know if there was such a thing as an "iron-on" knee reinforcing patch I could put on the inside of his new pants? Or, if no such thing exists, I am happy to buy patches and have a friend who can sew put them in for me (or get my very reasonable local tailor to do it). What would you suggest? I would love to be able to buy the actual patches on amazon but got overwhelmed looking there at all the options. Many thanks in advance for any advice you might have! ![]()

I tried it once (iron on patches on the insides of new pants knees) and the patches just peeled up gradually over many washes. I'm not sure what brand they were or anything, but I haven't bothered again.
