Broken Zip on Riding Boots

[Gingerwitch]

Has anyone ever found somewhere these can be repaired? I have a pair of rather expensive black long riding boots (had em 12 years now and they are still perfect) except tonight i managed to shear the little tag off the back - do i go for a saddler or the cobblers (and i am not being rude)

Local cobblers. Most of them will do riding boots no problem.

yeah, we go to our local cobblers

found that timpsons or other places like that arent as heavy duty as you need

I'd definitely use a local cobbler, a well known chain ruined my mountain horse long boots for almost the same price that I could have bought a new pair for and when I complained they were most unhelpful.

My long leather boots zip broke a couple of weeks ago, I will be going to a local cobbler and use them for summer more. As I have an xmas present of new Mark Todd winter boots, if I actually have a horsey to ride that is.
