          Spent my vacation with an friend who has a few pair.. He wears his Iron Hearts to work. He's worn out the cuff in the shop and had to sew the two halves back together.. Check those Superblacks still dark and an awesome tight weave..

              Your welcome. When I get more time I'll go though and do all the common repairs.

                            i figured fire & brimstone shouldn't be a problem & took a walk through HELL. . .

                            guess that boiling lake was a bit much

                            thanks again to jaco.  that's the old patch.  would have replaced with a 666 patch but one wasn't available at the moment, & if you know anything about me from the forum i am inpatient as hell.

                              Something really bad is happening at the crotch area….

                              Should I repair myself or send them to the tailor?

                                        hey jimmy, it was a literal boiling soak to make sure i got all shrinkage out of my devil's.  the denim & all the hardware besides the patch was fine.

                                          I broke the zipper on my Wings and Horns jacket and I was wondering if someone involved in the industry could advise me on how difficult a repair would be.  The pull tab on the slider broke off and the first tooth is also loose so the entire zipper would have to be replaced.

                                          I talked to Giles briefly about this at the party and he showed me a tool which can remove the rivits.  Would a normal tailor be able to do the replacement?  Also, how hard would it be to get new rivits and a new zipper equivalent to the Riri which is currently there.

                                            I was quoted roughly $50 to fix a similar issue.
