Title: Leather Repair
Post by: xkidx on February 13, 2017, 09:34:37 AM

So the zipper on my leather jacket broke and I don't want a new jacket yet.  Anyone know of a decent leather repair shop?  I live in Coppell, just north of Dallas.

Thanks,

Ditto that for Houston.

I'd offer but I don't have my leather sewing machine just yet.  Maybe in a couple or few months.

A leather shoe repair shop should be able to this or even a saddle shop.  An industrial walking foot machine is needed with a strong amp motor to push the needle thru the leather.  Most those places should have it.

I have a friend that has sewn on patches to my leather vest etc...let me ask if she can do a jacket.
She lives in Trophy Club...not too far from you.
