ripped my leather couch (the color is black) and would like to try a repair kit. I have not looked into having it professionally repaired or redone yet. It has not flaked off at all, but 3 "triangles" remain (in tact with the rest of the area) where the initial tear occurred. Is there a kit where I can fold them back together and repair the tears?

Unfortunately, it did not occur during a freak sex accident

If you don't have a pro do it, use this:

3M 08579 Leather & Vinyl Repair Kit

The the tear occurred at a stress point, it will be difficult to repair. The black color will help.

If you want to easier repair (but less likely to be successful IMHO):

Leather Doctor

I've used the 3M leather and vinyl repair on leather door panels and other applications where the leather is not being strained with weight or pulling (for example, leather seat backs and arm rests).

My experience is almost all automotive, though I did fix an office chair that had a tear.

You'll be able to repair it with this as good as anyone else. Otherwise have the panel that's torn replaced.

Black duct tape would look pretty sweet
