Hi all,
Last sunday, after a beautiful day on botany the zippers of my prolimit session bag were not working.
Both sides of the zippers are opened all the time. The bag is only 4 months old !
Do you guys have an idea to fix that ?
I got two zippers fixed up by the guys at Baracouta sails recently.
It was pretty cheap to replace the slide on one bag , and to have the entire zip replaced on the other.
It's a worry though that your bag is only 4 months old and the zippers are stuffed.
If it does not have a warranty you could try taking it to a seamstress person who may be able to open the stitching up and thread the zip back together for around $10-15?
I am no sewing etc expert, but I thought when you move the slider and the zip doesn't close it means it si worn out. Usually takes a long timke for that to happen.
Therefore, they have used a low quality (or defective batch) of zippers if it wore out in 4 months?
I'd be taking it back for refund / exchange regardless of warranty - Sale of goods Act, item was of unmerchantable quality at the point of sale .... proven by the fact that zips on bags for watersports don't wear out in 4 months.
