Vinyl Jacket repair

24th Jun 2024

Hi, ive been at this for months trying to find someone willing to repair, my apologies if already messaged. My cat has clawed and holed my brand new not cheap pvc /vinyl adidas jacket at the back and the arm and I'm desperate to get it fixed without pieces taken out inside or stitching but I am having no luck finding anyone willing to repair it, being pvc not real leather. If you are equipped with vinyl/faux leather repair, filler kits, I could send it off via post or bring it tp you if near manchester city centre. It's a few small puncture holes and a couple light scratches on a black faux leather jacket. Small job, I know but I can't seem to find any leather garment repair companies willing which I've found a bit ridiculous with all the repai kits with tutorials I've found stating that it can fix vinyl aswell to do it but I do not trust myself to do it with a kit without making a mess of it. There is 4 tiny punture holes on the back and arm and 2 scratches on the back. Can send additional info and images if able to take on. Many Thanks, Lucia Hughes

Hi, sadly my cat has clawed and holed my brand new expensive pvc leather adidas jacket at the back and thw arm and i was looking at an approximate cost on getting it fixed, I don't pieces taken out inside or visible stitching as it would ruin the jacket, is this possible? After visiting a couple locally who originally falsified that they could do it via email, I think the pvc fabric would need to be replaced even though the holes are small. Regards Lucia Hughes

£150

Bolton, Greater Manchester

8th May 2023

Basically I have an ADIDAS neon and green kagool can you make it more equipped with 2 waterproof pockets on front legs front drape area (keep zip same) and theme it like a green Marvel Doctor strange Baron Mordo Drape but more a hydrophobe jacket. For instance I would like the same collar reinforced shape as Doctor Stranges collar shape around 30cm above neck but the kagool itself should act as a mini trench coat I am 6 ft but jacket/kagool can drape 40 cm below waist 32 inch (w) by 34inch L (leg). If you keep the same colour scheme and similar fabric thats great but I am looking for a fashionable cosplay for ocasional nights out. Anywhere from £110 to £150 for novelty. Thank you so much 💓 - Due date: Flexible
