Sew in zippers?

[hunting1]

Anyone out there know where you could get waterproof pit and leg zippers installed in rain gear? I have some discontinued light weight truly waterproof rain gear, but it sweats you up. Thanks, just tired of playing with all the other stuff.

There used to be a place in Colorado I think called Ironworks or Ironman or something like that where they did high quality repair and alteration work for outdoor gear.

I will try to find the contact information for them if they are still around.

Thanks! I have just come to the conclusion that if it is truly waterproof you are going to sweat or it breathes, but eventually leaks. The Sitka is just too much, etc.....

Go to any Auto Uphostery shop and ask them, my friend has done all kinds of sewing unrated to autos. Worth a try in asking around your area.

The place I was thinking of was called Mountain Mend in Boulder but they are out of business.

Try rainypass.com or campingrepair.com
