Have a textile motorcycle jacket that wants a new zip on it. It was expensife and although it is quite old, it seems a shame to chuck it away. I have very fond memories of it.
Are Scottish Mountain Gear the people to talk to or would you send it elsewhere?

They've sorted a few items out for me in the last year or so including a new pocket zip on my Goretex snowboard jacket, a resole of a couple of pairs of Five Tens.
They're brilliant. A bit old school to deal with, expect paper forms and a bit of silence while they're working on your stuff, but the quality of work was excellent - I really couldn't fault them.
+1 for Lancashire Sports Repairs. Did a good job on a rucksack for me a few years ago, and this thread has reminded me it's the go-to for a new zip on an elderly softshell jacket that needs sorting.
+2. Was my first thought when seeing the thread title. Also, they're within kicking distance if there's a problem, I could walk there from work. It feels like a family-run business of passionate experts.
Aplkit were advertising repairs when I was in there today
I had a waterproof zip sorted on a Wingnut by Scottish Mountain Gear after advice on here. They did a smashing job. Must and Henri Lloyd have both repaired kit I've had from them for either a very reasonable fee or completely free of charge, so also consider contacting the manufacturer of your jacket - they might just be able to help.
Always had great service from Scottish Mountain Gear. Would wholeheartedly recommend them.
Lancashire Sports Repairs it is...cheers.
