My much loved Swanni jacket (2XL, Red Black Check, bought in Kaikoura, NZ in 1999) has gone the way of all flesh...
Well, the zip keeps popping open at the bottom and undoing all the way up to the zip toggle... While it's not often used as an extreme condition, last resort coat - it hangs by the back door, and is used when I fetch the dogs, fill coal buckets, chainsaw timber for the stove, work in the garden nip to the shops...
I guess it needs a zip replacement; anyone got any recommendations - is it find a dressmaker who can purchase a huge YKK zip and ask sweetly, or does anyone know of a recommended repair by post place?
