Leather & Suede Zipper Replacement

A broken zipper shouldn't mean the end of your favorite leather or suede jacket.
Most local tailors struggle with heavy leather or delicate suede because they lack the proper machinery and needles. We are different. Our master sewists specialize in leather repairs, carefully removing your old, broken zipper and replacing it with a brand new, genuine YKK® Metal Zipper—the gold standard for durability.
📦 Round-Trip Shipping is Included!
The price you see includes a pre-paid shipping label to send your item to us, and the return shipping back to you.
What Is Included in the Service?
We don't just "patch" it; we rebuild it. This service covers the replacement of one zipper on your garment (Main Front, Pocket, or Sleeve). Every service includes:
- The Zipper: We provide a brand new, heavy-duty YKK® Metal Zipper (we stock Brass, Antique Brass, Nickel, Black, and more).
- The Removal: Careful removal of the old zipper to protect the leather or suede hide.
- The Stitching: We strive to use the original needle holes whenever possible to maintain the authentic look of the garment.
- The Finish: We match the zipper tape and thread color as closely as possible to your original design.
Have a complex jacket or unsure about the price?

Which Shipping Option Should I Choose?
Please select your preferred shipping method using the buttons above:
- Email Label (+$0): Best value. We email you a label to print. You print it and tape it to your own box.
- Send Me a Box (+$25): We ship you a "Shipping Kit" with a collapsed box and a return label.
- US Mail Label (+$2): No printer? We print the label here and mail it to you via USPS. You stick it on your own box.
- Cleaning and Repair (+$0): Select this option if you are purchasing a Cleaning Service at the same time (so you don't pay for shipping twice).
Common Questions:
Will the new zipper look exactly like the old one?
We use high-quality YKK zippers that likely match or exceed the quality of your original. We stock all standard metal finishes. If you have a unique vintage zipper, we will match the style as closely as modern inventory allows. It is possible, in some cases, to special order zippers. Please send us a photo and we can provide an assessment.
Do you fix the slider or replace the whole thing?
This price covers a complete replacement of the zipper tape and slider. If your zipper teeth are missing, the tape is torn, or the insert/box is missing, the whole zipper must be replaced.
