Repairs and Alterations

Thurston Bros. started with a mission to repair and refurbish diamond-in-the-rough leather jackets from America's rich motorcycle history!  While our business has shifted to creating the next generation of vintage jackets with Aero, Thedi and Vanson, we still have a passion for working on leather jackets.  If you are in need of a zipper repair or replacement, lining repairs, leather patching or anything else to keep your jacket in wearable condition, contact us at sales@thurston-bros.com for an estimate.

General pricing range (will vary based on level of difficulty); pricing includes labor and materials unless otherwise specified:

Zipper replacement (front/main zipper)--$150 to $225

Sleeve zipper replacement (per sleeve)--$60-$110

Pocket pull replacement--$50 to $65; full pocket zipper tape and pull replacement--$80-$100

Sleeve shortening (button cuff, straight cuff, zip sleeve, etc.)--$150 to $250 for both sleeves

Lining patching and repairs (currently we are not able to offer full lining replacement)--$50 to $150

Other work--decorative or racing patches, snaps, buttons, seam repair, replace pocket bags, add interior pockets, leather hole/abrasion repair, and much more!  This is not a complete list of the repairs and pricing.  Please inquire at sales@thurston-bros.com to get an estimate for your repair.
