FAQs
Can I use these on light-colored clothing?
While the pads are black and best suited for dark clothing, they can be used on light colors if the garment lining completely obscures the pad.
Are these permanent?
No, they are designed with hook and loop fasteners specifically so you can move them between different garments as needed.
How do I clean the pads?
Hand wash in cold water and air dry. Always keep the hook and loop fasteners closed during cleaning.
Will these fit a coat with a standard sleeve head?
These are designed for raglan sleeves, which have a diagonal seam. They may not provide the intended shape on a standard set-in sleeve.
Can I trim these pads to a smaller size?
Trimming is not recommended as it may compromise the structural integrity and the placement of the internal fasteners.
Troubleshooting
The shoulder pad keeps shifting or slipping
Ensure the hook and loop area is clean of lint or debris and press firmly to re-engage the fastening mechanism.
The fasteners are snagging on the garment fabric
Check that the pads are correctly aligned and not protruding beyond the seam allowance, or place a small piece of matching fabric as a buffer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To attach the pads, simply align the hook and loop surface with the designated area inside your garment. Because these pads use a non-permanent attachment method, they are highly compatible with multiple pieces of clothing. For care, it is recommended to remove the pads before washing the garment to prevent the hook and loop fasteners from snagging or filling with lint. If the pads require cleaning, gently hand wash them in cold water and air dry, ensuring the fasteners are closed to maintain their grip strength.
