How do you replace a broken zipper than?

  I expect the same way you do now

    Right now zippers have a piece of fabric. You can sew it with any machine or even by hand. This new one requires a special machine to sew it.

      I bet it could be done by hand by an experienced hand

        and turn a 5 minute task into a half-hour one.
        • iancmceachern 1y ago
          Which is fine?
          • em-bee 1y ago
            it makes a difference if the repair costs $5 or $25 and if it can be done on the spot, or if i have to wait until tomorrow.

              $25 to repair a zipper in 1 day is pretty great, I would.be very happy with that

  Good question. They have a new Juki machine to sew these on directly, but I can't tell whether it will be practical to sew on by hand. I expect most tailor and seamstress shops won't be taking our loans to buy machines just to sew these new zippers in one size.
