Hi, can these be used on polyester/cotton hiking pants (current 1/2" snap leaves waistband too loose)? Thank you

If you can poke a small hole through them, you can use these. I put them on leather so I think you can with poly-blend stuff.

I think so, if you have a medium build. I don't think the elastic is too strong to prevent that. They're lightweight, so they shouldn't bind too much either. All the best to you!

I have only used this machine on lightweight cottons so far. You may have to adjust the tension if your jeans are very heavy.

Haven't had them long enough to say, but for coarse fabrics like denim, I'm sure they'll work. Cotton or wool, maybe. I have some hangers similar in design, but about twice as thick. They work pretty well.

I doubt it - unless you're using snaps that are the same marine size and grade on the clothing. If you are, then it should work just fine.

yes, but they are too long and not adjustable so do not hold the pants leg tight

I have not yet had a chance to test drive these particular pants, though I am working on it. That said, these are nylon. I hear that before Underarmor invented wicking sportswear fabric, nylon was terrible stuff. I even believe it, as I had a horrible nylon sweater that would make me sweat in negative temps. However, nylon and polyester and other synthetic fabrics are in most athletic clothes, and they are both comfy and breathable, as well as quickly wicking away moisture. (And, in the case, moisture is sweat from hiking.)

in my opinion, no! i used it on a pair of lightweight dress pants and 1x in the wash, they came completely apart!! i know i did it right. i have used hem tape many times before. do yourself a favor. opt for the heavy duty stuff. this is a joke.

It works for me. Basically each bar will hold one pant/jean. However it doesn't work well on shorts or oversize pants. I wear 32/33 length pants btw.

MY guess is that they will not work on stainless steel snaps since the insert in the pliers is made from some type of plastic and would not be hard enough to bend stainless steel.

Hi, I dont see why not.. as long as the fabric is penetrable which I am sure what you are referring to would be. If they dont tear or rip easily then it should work just fine. One piece goes thru the fabric (sharp pointed piece) and the other piece snaps on and can be a tight or loose fit depending upon what your needs or preference is.

I would say yes, the second time I used the tape was for cargo pants that are too long for me. It held up great, just have to watch the seams, I wouldn't put the tape directly on them.

I would hesitate using it on something that delicate. It left a ring on my polyester pants. However, it came out in the wash.

I think a lot has to do how one is built and how the pants are made. In my case I normally wear a women's 24 in jeans. I have tried on jeans that are too tight and say 24. I have a bigger rear end, smaller waist, and my legs are smaller compared to the rest of me (that changes without notice!). They fit me pretty good in the legs but they wouldn't snap due to the top part being smaller on me. They are not hemed and I wish they had been, I hate hemming pants but one does what one must. I hope this helps and good luck to you.

Whoops, I made a mistake, my pants are not 1000 Denier (duh), but the Ripstop material, which is still very tough material. Anyhoo, you won't have a problem with them.

I use these for my pants & haven't had any issues with my pants sliding off.

Probably, but I've always worn it on the waistband of my pants...the extra fabric there helps to keep it from slipping off.
