    Question Where to find replacement zipper?

    I'm trying to find an extra full circumference zipper for my leather jacket (I have an extra for the pants side, but I need the side with the zipper pull), but it's just way bigger than anything I can find in stores. I know it's a 34" zipper, but that's about all I know. Anybody know a good place to get one? I tried looking online, but I don't think any of the ones that I find will work. I'm looking for somebody that knows something that will work for sure. The pants are AGV and the jacket is Fieldsheer, but I imagine any of the large tooth zippers found on most jackets would work.

    I e-mailed AGV and Fieldsheer and they never responded.

    What I'm trying to do is build an adapter because the zipper on the jacket and the pants start on opposite ends, so I want to sew the two spare zipper parts together. I'm trying to make it so that my perforated jacket can mate to my pants to make a nice 2 piece summer suit, and I don't want to rip the zipper out of the jacket or the pants just to turn it around.

    Find a decent tailor. When I popped the zipper on my suit I brought it to a local tailor and they took care of the details of finding a replacement zipper and whatnot.

    I brought my race suit to the dry cleaner and they fixed my zipper for $20. Denno was pissed
