my RST textile jacket main zip has failed, only discovered when i hoped on the bike for first time last week! typical.

normally i would take into work and get someone to look at there, but most of the factory staff are furloughed still.
i have been ringing round local tailors, but none seem to be open in any capacity at the moment.

i don't want to have to buy a new jacket, when only issue is the zip, but struggling to get repaired
anyone know of any online tailors that can repair motorcycle gear? or recommended any places that are still taking in work?

thanks

If you were local to me I have a friend that could help, she put a new zip in a leather jacket for me, Have you tried Timpsons? Assuming thet are open.

i didn't know this was something timpsons did to be honest, i will check to see if the ones near me are open and offer this
thanks

How about contacting RST themselves? Most manufacturers offer repair services.

Lass in Stonehaven does a good job but probably not open until the end of April.

Most useless post, ever.  Sorry!

No worries mate ..

Couldn't make the waist band of my RST trousers a bit longer could he?

They appear to have shrunk over lockdown.

To be honest they were snug to begin with.
