Leather zip repairs
I have a pair of Alpinestars leather trousers and an RST leather jacket. I would like to get a new zip put on them so I could join them together. Because I've lost weight if I crashed now these trousers would end up round my ankles.
Anyone know where I can get this done? Cheers

Re: Leather zip repairs
I've used these before, impressed by the quality of work:

Re: Leather zip repairs
Might I recommend some pies as well mate? If the trousers are too loose, getting a zip fitting is just addressing the symptoms. You need to address the cause of the problem, and this case, pies are what you're after. I would recommend Steak and Ale.

Re: Leather zip repairs
Had a chicken pie, chips, 5 cans of Guinness and 3 cookies tonight. Reckon they'll be a snug fit by tomorrow
