Coat Zipper

[live4christp1]

Okay DISers I know somebody here will know how to fix this.

This morning DS put coat on and I went to zip it and the little slide thingy was gone. Checked the zipper and there are no bad spots or teeth missing.

Is it possible to buy a replacement part to go on. I am not talented enough to replace the whole zipper so lets not go there.

TIA

Okay, I did find online that you can order the replacement slider but they come in many different types and sizes. Since the original is lost (probably at school) how do I figure out what size and type I need.

Cristy -- can you take it to a local dry cleaners? I think ours would fix it for about $5-8. good luck!

That's a great idea! Thanks so much for suggesting that. Would probably come out cheaper doing that than running around trying to find the size I needed. It's not a really expensive coat but he loves it (Tennessee Titans) and I really don't want to have to buy a new coat right now.

Thanks again!
