Does anybody know of anywhere I can get the zip on my boots fixed? The finger tag has broken off and it makes it very difficult/impossible to use the zip :'(

If it's just the tag that's broken, you can put a keyring through the slot on the slider part:

I think that actually makes it easier to use than the original!

Others than that try a cobblers or is swindon there is a place that will do leather work so might be able to put a new zip in the boot for you

We got a new heavy duty zip put in a Sidi boot at a cobllers in Bath.
Cost £20 but a lot chepaer than new boots.

If it's just the tag use a keyring.
We have a few items of clothing like this.

i got the keyring on one of my boots, actually waiting for the other one to break so i can put one on there, its loads easier to pull up
