    Help...I need a jacket repair

    Got to work this morning and couldn't undo the main front Zip. It was ruin the Zip or wear the jacket forever!! A couple of the teeth had fallen off jaming the zip so it was stuffed anyway.

    Where is a good place to have the zip replaced in a leather jacket in the Rotorua area??

    Thats a hell of a lot to replace a jacket zip. Should only be 60-70 bucks. I do them if you cant find anyone closer. Courier costs are reasonable.

    StoneY? Shame on you dude! You know I do repairs....just waiting for you to get those duct taped trou to me. QMoto has asked if I will do repairs down this way for him, they are retailers not machinists.

    Ended up costing me $50.00 bucks at local Dr Shoe.

    Its an old Jacket and one I wear for round town and short trips so didn't want to spend a heap on it. they did a reasonable job.

    Only problem is now that the two options to Zip it up depending on body size is now reduced to one. Thats ok though as I don't think I will be losing a heap of weight anytime soon yes I chose the larger option for replacement.

    Although not local - I can recommend The Leather Shop in Porirua. They replaced the both sets of velcro on both gloves plus provided some ankle straps for my leather pants - all for $40. Well sewd on.
