Does anyone patch trousers? Are there good iron-on patches out there?

My DT2 has a brand new pair of gorgeous Monsoon cords, which now have a hole in the knee. The iron-on patches I can find online are only black, white or denim. Does anyone have a recommendation?

i patch ds' school trousers as I can never find his size in the shops. I get them from john lewis, they do a few different ones.

Could you accessorise them like boden knee patch cords?

Maybe.....DT2 is a boy though. I'd need to find stars or pirates or fire engines

H&M do patches.
DS has disney cars on one and skateboards on another. They have footballs i think also.
They are beside the socks and belts

If the hole hasn't got too big I iron on patches to the inside - I've used John Lewis school trouser patches. Seems to stop the hole getting bigger but doesn't have to match or look good.

Brilliant, thank you both, just what I need!
