How can I fix lap-glued seams that have come apart over time?

Hello! My 2010 Patagonia Winter Sun Jacket has stood the test of time and endured the toughest tests. Just recently, the two chest pockets have begun to separate from the jacket at the seams. The seams are lap-glued and I do not want to put needle and thread though the waterproof material. How can I best repair these busted lap-glued seams? Thank you!

Hi Brendan! One item I have found super useful for clothing is hem iron-on adhesive tape! You put it between the two pieces of fabric and iron it. The adhesive melts and holds up super well- even in the dryer. Here's a link to one brand that seems to have good reviews (there are tons of different brands). Hope this answers your question.
