Help sew up my rucksack
£15
Cambridge Heath, Greater London, E2
27th Sep 2024
I have a Roka rucksack. The front pocket has a tear along the bottom so you can't use it. Other than that, the rucksack is in a usable condition, and I like to keep items in use as long as possible I am looking for someone to repair the tear. It's not a massive job, but the material is like rain jacket material, so needs to be good strong stitches that won't break it further, with a patch probably? I'm no expert! I am based in SW London and work in central London, so can discuss drop offs etc
