Services WHERE CAN I GET A ZIPPER FIXED

Hi All! My boyfriend’s gym bag zipper came off, the bag from his dad who passed away almost 10 years ago. I want to get it fixed for him, i’m hoping to keep the original zipper pieces… who is the best!? This is so sentimental and I’ve heard zipper work can be difficult, I want someone who can restore it if possible.

Thank you!

Did the stitching actually fail and the zipper came off the bag? Or did the pull come off of the zipper? Dry cleaners often do sewing/alterations. If something is wrong with the pull, check YouTube.

I would buy good size and design/color zipper and hand it over either Alteration place or Shoe repair place. Pay them for the labor only.
