Patagonia Nano Puff ® Jackets have a wonderfully soft feel and a pampering warmth which means we want to wear them for everything we do. Unfortunately, sometimes they get ripped or torn by a sharp object like snowboard edges or gnarly brush. While patching your jacket with repair tape will hold for a while, and is a great way to repair when you’re on-the-fly, eventually you’ll want to put a real patch on the jacket. For details on patching a Patagonia down jacket check out our Baffle Repair Guide.
For replacement parts or further assistance, contact Patagonia Customer Service.

-
Inspect the damage on your jacket. Clip any dangling threads or fabric using small scissors.
-
-
-
Grab your repair tape.
-
Flip the repair tape to the back side.
-
Using a permanent marker, draw an oval slightly larger than the hole.
-
-
-
-
Using your fingernail, or a pin, peel the backing off the tenacious tape, so that you only have the clear sticky layer.
-
-
-
Lay the tape over the hole and press the tape down with your finger.
-
-
-
Use a fingernail or spudger to work out all of the air bubbles under the tape. Continue rubbing the tape until it is well-adhered.

I followed this tutorial and used Tenacious tape by Gear Aid because it claims to not leave a residue behind if removed. That was a bad idea. I am now ready to upgrade this patch to a sewn one and removing the tape is absolutely leaving behind a residue. Really annoyed right now.
This is really helpful, thanks.
