Hoodies (hooded sweatshirts), sweatpants, bags, and comfortable everyday wear have been essential parts of our wardrobes for years. However, even the most beautiful sweatshirt can be ruined by one tiny detail – a frayed drawstring.
Whether you are a dressmaker creating a new clothing collection or simply want to bring your favorite hoodie back to life, high-quality cord ends are the perfect solution. In this article, we will take a look at why hardware material matters and how to properly install knot-fixation cord ends at home.
- Thread: Pull the drawstring through the cord end (from the narrow opening to the wider one).
- Tie: Tie a tight knot at the tip of the drawstring. Trim any excess length.
- Hide: Pull the drawstring back – the knot will completely disappear inside the cord end. Done!
Why ordinary plastic no longer works?Most mass-produced garments come with cheap, molded plastic cord ends. The result? After just a few washes in the washing machine, they crack, break, or simply disappear.The cord ends available in our store are made in Latvia using precise 3D printing technology and PETG material. Unlike ordinary plastic, PETG offers three essential benefits:
- Impact resistance: They will not break or crack, even during active sports or if you accidentally step on them.
- Heat resistance: Garments can be safely washed up to 60 degrees and tumble-dried – the cord ends will maintain their shape and color.
- Wide range of colors: 3D printing allows us to create cord ends in a wide variety of colors to perfectly match your fabric or sportswear.
