A shout out to the sewing people on my f-list

[gurdymonkey]

My sister produced a pair of low rise jeans with a blown zipper and asked if they could be salvaged. I cannot find a 4" metal toothed jeans zipper anywhere for love or money. Obviously jeans manufacturers have the things or they wouldn't be making these pants. Anybody know where I can find or order one?

What kproche said.

Otherwise, do what I tell the husband when he blows zippers out.

Say, "You know it's not worth my time to pick out old zipper all carefully and putting in a new zipper into old pants takes more time than it does for you to go out buy a new pair. Why don't you take these to a tailor? or throw them out and get some new ones?"
