Jackets, outerwear and waders

As GORE-TEX® fabric repair specialists since 1986, we are your best option for any repair or modification on waterproof garments. Every patch and zipper replacement is sealed for a factory finish look and full performance.

Waders, rain pants, ski and snowboard shells, down jackets, hunting apparel and motorcycle gear all come through the shop every week. If it is a technical fabric, we know how to work on it.

We replace zipper sliders or full zippers, all while keeping a FACTORY FINISH look. If your zipper separates when you close it, we most likely only need to replace the slider. If the teeth or tape are damaged, we replace the zipper.

For down garments we use premium recycled 800 fill down and lightweight down-proof ripstop nylon for patch repairs, so the restored piece lofts and looks like it did new.

Authorized GORE-TEX® Repair Service

Certified by W. L. Gore & Associates to repair GORE-TEX® products. Every patch and zipper on a waterproof garment is sealed for full performance.

Questions about jackets, outerwear & waders

Do you only fix GORE-TEX®?

No. We repair and alter all other waterproof-breathable fabrics, coated fabrics, synthetic fabrics and some cotton and natural fabrics.

Can you patch down items?

Yes. We patch and repair down garments and sleeping bags, and we replace zippers on down items.

Will the patch match my jacket?

We always aim for a factory-finished look, but fabrics and parts applied to the outside of an item will be visible and we cannot guarantee a perfect color match. If color matters to you, ask for an email with color options before we start.

You guys repaired a black Mountain Hardware shell jacket for me. Both the pit zippers were coming apart. You did an awesome job. The craftsmanship is outstanding. Thank you

I just received back the jacket I sent you for repair. Two things: First, holy moly, that was fast!! Second, you did an amazing job. The repair is unrecognizable as a repair, just perfect, and the zipper runs smoother than I recall it running even when new.
