Leather repairs (UK / London)

Does anyone know of a good and not too extortionate repair service for my leather jackets - one very old and battered Alpinestars which needs a bit of TLC (leather treatment) and new (non-metal) zips, and the other a fairly new Furrygan where the main zip and one cuff zip are broken (really bad quality zips).<br><br>MTIA

Hideout leather in Essex have a very good reputation and aren't too far away from you. They make leathers for a number of police forces in the local area.

I went in there for the first time this weekend to buy a furygan vented jacket and they seemed very nice.

Thanks Phil - I actually found somewhere in London via my hairdresser (and I'm bald ;))

I'll let you all know how I get on - she quoted me around £80 to replace 3 zips and sort a small tear which seems very good value. Turns out the original zips on my Furrygan were plastic, and she's replacing them with metal YKK zips (safer as you may know).
