Help! Pulls in thread Spanx Air Essentials

I love the air essentials sets I have. Lighten comfortable and flattering. I’m a size 16 and get compliments all the time when I wear them.

But for the love of go, what up with how delicate the fabric is? The material gets snagged on everything & threads get pulled.how do I fit them or prevent them all together?

It looks like this is a poly/rayon/spandex microknit. It's going to be like heavier pantyhose.

I doubt that there's a way to prevent it from snagging or to repair pulls completely. If you get holes, you'd need to use something like fraycheck or acetone free clear nail polish to stop a run, but that won't be invisible.

Actually thank you but this is a jogging suit. I emailed and they suggest a snag repair kit.

A snag repair kit is not going to address the problem of the material being snag prone - as well, these kits are usually meant for sweater knits, so I'm not sure it will fix your problem :(
