Old shoe repair places could do it.... When Walter had Western Boot in the mall by our shop, he replaced one of my leather jacket zippers.... very reasonably priced too. Or maybe try Edmonton Tent and Awning .... I'm sure they could do it

there's a lady in Spruce Grove by the CIBC on McLeod Avenue, her name is Sue, and the business name is Galaxy Tailors, I don't know if that's out of your way or not, but I'm told she does excellent work at very reasonable rates.

I had Shelly fix up my dads old suit for this season. She was able to put a new zipper in and stitch up/patch a tear in the leg.

She had a thread a while back about repairs but I cannot find it.... I'll post a pic of the repairs.

Thanks Shelly!
