Looks a bit out of my (lack of) skill set. Well done you for taking it on!
I asked Hideout for a rough price - via their website - so far sod all reply.

I stupidly offered to repair my partners bike boots because a velcro zip cover came unstitched after it was caught on something. I could not touch anything else for days after and that was even with using a thimble! Never, ever again.
It all had to be by hand though, my cheap Chinese no brand Sowing Machine could not punch through the leather. The motor stalled!
