Typically on the 1st nice day of the year the, already, iffy main zip on my suit failed whilst I stood on the drive next to my bike frown

Can anyone recommend a decent company to send them to for repair?

Another option www.garforthcobbler.co.uk very good work and fast.

I've always called in with leathers but I'm sure they do mail order.

Try Rachel Dobbs in Long Buckby. Her work is first class

http://www.dobbsleathers.co.uk/

Her father set up Dobbs leathers in Northampton in the 1970's so tons of experience and her prices are very sensible.

We use these guys for a lot of repairs, they do a very good job better than OEM's in some cases.

Ha ha. Surprised it took that long for that kind of comment to come up.

Alas it was a knackered zip that I should have sorted last year once the weather
turned. Nothing to do with holiday weight... Honest cry
