    Leathers repair

    I busted up a zipper and tore some of the strechy material on my MotoGP leathers, do I need to take them anywhere special to get them fixed, or can any good tailor do it? I think the zipper with need to be replaced, and the material patched somehow.
    Thank god for this little break so I can finally get some maintenace things done.

    Leathers repair

    I have taken mine to the local shoe repair shop and they have done a great job. They use leather to patch the holes (no roo hide for repairs) and have repaired the stitching around the zippers.

    Overall, I would not recomend this suit, maybe the more expensive Roo suit that Moto GP sells is better, but this one is almost disposable.

    Leathers repair

    Yah, I meant I have the kangaroo one, it held up fine. It wasnt very high speed, just the strechy part ripped and some teeth in the zipper broke so it cant zip
