Introduction
After a long time of use, the buckles or buckle loops can show sign of damage. These are often very simple to replace and repair, and in this guide we will demonstrate a common example from ski trousers. (but it is appropriate for many other products types too)
Ce dont vous avez besoin
-
-
The buckle stitching is broken, and the buckle has fallen off
-
Note: if your buckle has actually broken or snapped, use a "seam ripper" tool, or small pair of scissors to carefully cut the threads holding the seam together. Then remove the defective buckle and obtain a replacement.

-
-
-
Insert the buckle in the fabric loop
-
Check that the position is correct, and that the other half of the buckle will clip on correctly.
-
It is easy to sew the clip in back-to-front - so one extra check before stitching is worthwhile!
-
-
-
Fix the buckle in place, by sewing along the seam with the sewing machine.
-
Place the assembly under the sewing machine, depress the foot, and made a straight stitch from one end to the other
-
Repeat the process 1-2 times for extra durability; and add a lock stitch on both ends
