FAQs
How do I clean the pockets?
The pockets can be machine washed at up to 30 degrees Celsius. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach.
Can these pockets be used on heavy fabrics?
While the pockets can be applied to medium weight fabrics with the iron-on adhesive, for heavier fabrics, it is recommended to reinforce the bond by machine stitching around each part.
What colors are available?
The Hemline Iron On Secure Pocket comes in a set containing both black and white pieces.
What kind of garments can I use these on?
These pockets are ideal for shirts, working apparel, overalls, work coats, and uniforms made of light to medium fabrics.
How long does it take to apply?
The application time depends on the garment fabric and iron. Typically, the iron-on process takes just a few minutes, according to the manufacturer's directions.
What if the pocket starts to peel off?
If the pocket starts to peel off, you can re-iron it, following the original instructions. Reinforcing with stitching is also an option for increased durability.
Troubleshooting
Pocket detaches after washing.
Ensure the iron-on adhesive was properly activated during application. For heavier use or fabrics, consider adding stitching around the perimeter.
Hook and loop closure doesn't stick properly.
Make sure the fabric surfaces are clean and free of any treatments or finishes that might interfere with adhesion. Ensure that the correct iron temperature was used for the fabric type.
