Our unique design allows you to either sew or safety pin the sweat pads securely into place without stitches or safety-pins being seen on the outside of the garment.

Sweat Guard sweat pads have a "raised seam" specifically designed to aid quick and invisible attachment. This "raised seam" runs from top to bottom, along the centre of the sweat pad's backing layer.

The photo to the right shows the raised seam of the white sweat pad being attached to the raised side-seam of a red top.

Beware of pads which use adhesive - due to the heat and moisture of the armpit, many will peel away within hours.



 
The photo to the left, shows a red top turned inside out, with the sleeve pointing upwards and the body section in the bottom half of the photo.

First safety-pin the raised seam of the white sweat pad to the raised side-seam of the top in 3 places. Alternatively, attach by sewing the two seams together.











Next, use the raised arm-seam of the garment to safety-pin through the backing layer of the sweat pad. Repeat this at the other side of the pad. Alternatively tack-stitch.

In summary, when safety-pinning, only 5 pins are used for each pad.

3 pins are used running from the top of the pad to the bottom.
1 pin to attach the left side of the pad.
1 pin to attach the right side of the pad.
