Hi,
I have a gore Xenon jacket, its a few years old but in excellent condition. Except that now the insert pin at the end of the zip has come off. The zip still works fine, but if I carry on using it the fabric will start to fray and make pin replacement impossible (if its not already).
I know there are specialists that can replace the zip, I have been into town and they say £18 for a new zip - but Im not sure I trust them with goretex. I would really just like to replace the pin if possible.
This is the bit thats missing from a stock photo...
Anyone know if it is possible to replace just the pin? Or have you had a zip replaced by a specialist or high street place?
