A couple of the 'laminated' seams on the inside of my goretex jacket are starting to loose their tapes.

Can anyone advise me on how I may be able to repair them? The jacket is out of warranty by about 6 years, but still works really well!

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

you can either get the seams retaped at an outdoor store (not sure how much it would cost) or you can buy seam sealing tape and do it yourself. It would require heat as a catalyst, ie a blow dryer or somethign similar - dont use an iron or anything too hot.

Either way, it's an easy enough job.
