REMA patch kits are the gold standard. But in my experience, any patch kit where you have to scuff up the tube and use glue with the patch is good enough.

Assuming you have fresh glue, good scuffing technique, and patience (use your cell phone timer and surf the web for five minutes while waiting for the glue to dry) what can possibly go wrong?
