Hi,

Ive got a set of Shift leathers which dont have replaceable knee sliders, just some plastic bits stitched on.

Is there anyone who can sew on the velcro bases for sliders onto the knees in Auckland??

cheers

She also finishes around 2.30pm on some days, so yeah, ring first is your best bet.

Highly recommend her, she's done several bits of work for me.

Yep, she's in St. Kevin's Arcade and comes highly recommended.

I was amazed that such people still exist.

Charged me $5 to stitch a zip.

Also tailor makes leathers to order.

Thats a good price. Did she replace the whole zip or just fixed it? I went there the other day as my zip completely broke off and needs to be replaced with a YKK one and was quoted something like $85

Couldn't you have spent 10 seconds searching the forums first?
There are at least 3 threads with all this info.:Oops:

+1 for Kerrie at MSW. Did a fantastic job on my leathers after I was unceramoniousl knocked off at the last AMCC round. A 150+ get off can make quite a mess of a set of leathers and she did an awesome job of tidying it all up, even stuck my name on em in the form of a patch. All for a little over $200.
