Leather Clothing Zip Repairs & Replacement | FAQs

If the zip is fully intact but jams or separates, replacing the runner may be an option. We can only confirm this after a physical assessment. Broken teeth, torn zip fabric or significant rust or corrosion require a full zip replacement.

We match replacement zips as closely as possible for size, shape and colour, rather than promising an exact match. We can usually transfer the original puller or tag to the new runner or zip. If this is not possible, we use a generic, non-branded replacement.

Send photos of your garment and damaged zip for a quote. Cost depends on the size, location and complexity of the repair, including whether we need to open the lining for access. Runner-only repair suitability needs a physical assessment, not just photographs.

We offer consultations at our Melbourne workshop and an Australia-wide postal service for leather jacket repairs. Send photos of the garment and damaged areas to our team to get started. We need to inspect the zip in person to confirm whether runner replacement is suitable.

We can assess torn leather and worn seams alongside the zip repair. Depending on the damage, our leather clothing services include restitching, tear reinforcement and panel replacement. A repaired tear may still have a faint join line; the surrounding leather’s condition helps determine the appropriate approach.

We replace damaged pocket zips as well as jacket zips. We can also add zips to items that did not originally have them, subject to assessment. Send photos of the garment and the area where you would like a zip fitted.
