First, is your sewing machine tough enough to handle the thickness of the jacket and/or jeans? Most are, but just test the garment and the zipper under your zipper foot and try stitching, carefully, to see how your machine handles the thickness.
Oh My, I just finished replacing a zipper on a sweatshirt. I told the customer that it would be $25 and suggested he might like to just purchase a new sweatshirt. Nope he wanted the zipper replaced. On the other hand I had a customer ask to have a zipper replaced in a several hundred dollar parka and he balked at the price. Go figure. I too am looking forward to your tutorial, I always learn something new from you! Thanks!

In the video to Repair Zippers That Separate or Come Undone, I showed you how to fix a separating zipper on my jacket. However, the FixnZip works on other zippers that keep splitting! Zippers on a tent, backpack, or sleeping bag. The only difference is that those have closed-end zippers. It makes installing the FixnZip is just a little different. FixnZip has a video showing you how to fix a closed-end zipper here.

Thank you! This was great - I ordered the knippers and replacement parts for a jacket of mine that I broke, as I know my children will be breaking there's sooner or later. It cost me $10 instead of $40+ to replace a jacket.

The zippers on my sons' coveralls were no good. I ordered heavy duty two-way zippers. Oh MY are they great. I spent the better part of Sunday afternoon replacing the leg and chest zippers on their coveralls and all I can say is thank you thank you thank you thank you. Nice heavy duty zippers for guys that work hard. I have told everyone that asks where did you find those zippers about you. THANK YOU
My zippers arrived much faster than I ever expected. The quality far surpassed my expectations considering the low cost. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they are EXACTLY what I need and the colors are great!! I'm using them on bags, pouches, etc. for knitting. I can find no rough spots to snag yarn - an important feature. The backing material is lightweight just like I had hoped for. Your company will definitely be our future zipper source!
Picture it: you're wearing your favorite pair of jeans or your best jacket, and the zipper breaks. Heartbreaking for sure, but is your garment necessarily ready to be tossed? Absolutely not! While zippers can be a bit tricky to repair, it can be done with a little skill and know-how.
If the repair is not covered under warranty, we'll be happy to repair it for you. There will be a reasonable cost involved, but we'll notify you first of any charges. Be advised that repaired garments most likely will not appear brand new. We accept Visa, MasterCard and American Express for repairs not covered under warranty. Note: the only things that last forever are death, taxes, and a love for skiing. If you've had your jacket over 10 years and a zipper broke, we suggest it's time to treat yourself to a new jacket.
Anyone who has ever experienced a broken zipper on a favorite pair of jeans, jacket, backpack, sleeping bag, or anything that relies on a zipper to keep shut knows the frustration a broken zipper can cause. It was working for you for all that time, and then suddenly decided to come off the track, get stuck, or stop moving as smoothly as it once did. Unfortunately, too many people toss out their items when the zipper breaks, without realizing that you can fix them. If a stuck zipper is preventing you from using one of your items, read on for some tips on how to fix a broken zipper, as well as how to prevent it from breaking again.
Now that you have the slider back on, locate the position where you will be replacing the stopper. Use your needle-nose pliers to pinch it into place. This will prevent the new zipper slider from falling off.

The type of coat or jacket is extremely important when considering alterations. Most outerwear can have alterations performed, however, there are some exceptions. Any jacket or coat with a down-filled interior (puffers, ski jackets, or parkas) is very difficult to alter. However, this type of outerwear can have repairs completed on its exterior (buttons, zippers, and lining). Types of outerwear that are easier to alter:
Most seamstresses or tailors provide these alterations on a wide range of coats and jackets, however, some linings may be eligible to be replaced. We recommend bringing in the garment to your alterations provider for them to take a look at the jacket or coat and evaluate the repair. Keep in mind that the cost of lining replacements and alterations is also more expensive than other coat or jacket repairs. Depending on the garment, lining replacements for coats can cost $90 or more.
Hemming a jacket or coat can cost anywhere from $25 to $45 depending on the garment and the alterations. Tapering a piece of outerwear can cost between $25 and $50 depending on the length of the coat. 2ff7e9595c
