Default New zip on leathers

Anyone got a rough idea how much it would cost to put a new zip on a set of one piece leathers?

Main zip - full length of the body.

Cheers,
Phil

Depends on whether you take it to a bike shop or a general little sewing repair shop.

I was speaking to a guy at the weekend who took in some leather bottoms and a leather jacket that didnt zip together. It cost him £15 so that they zipped together. Hope that gives you an idea.

I paid ?35 for a new zip on my jacket, that was done at a place that make leathers and it was a chunkier zip compared to the original

Ive just paid £55 to have linings put into my pants. Terrible job and definitely wont be going back. Might have to get a new set altogether
