One of the taped seams on my MT500 waterproof shorts has started to peel away, is there a way I can repair it?

You can buy the repair tape from good outdoors shops.

Or you can try ironing it back on - the tape is held on with a heat melt glue. Just separate it from the iron with silicon or grease proof paper and have the iron on * or **.

Disclaimer: If you melt your shorts it's your own fault ๐Ÿ™‚
