Review on Revive Your Zipper with Zipper Rescue Zipper Repair Kits: Trusted Original Made in America Since 1993 for Outdoor Adventure by Hannah Curi

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent quality spare parts, the set is superb, the price is more than justified!

I came across this kit while looking for zip repair parts for my favorite parka. Although I don't use this kit at this park we have some vests and coats that can still be used but the zippers failed when the locking mechanisms on the sliders fell apart. This kit consists of fully assembled replacement sliders and crimp end stops. Most sliders are made from high quality YKK parts. The kit comes with instructions but there are some great videos on the company's website showing the relatively simple process of cutting off or prying off the old end stop, fitting the correct replacement slider and crimping the new end stop. In less than ten minutes I replaced two broken pullers on two pieces of outerwear and their zippers are working perfectly again! Add to the satisfaction that this is a small American company that puts out quality kits.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • A dubious purchase for the elderly
