Repair FAQ
Do you repair brands other than The Leather Base?
Yes! We repair all premium leather garments regardless of brand, including vintage pieces and designer labels.
How much does leather repair typically cost?
Costs vary based on the work needed. Simple zipper replacements start around $75, while full restorations can range from $200-$500+. You'll receive an exact quote before any work begins.
How long does repair usually take?
Standard repairs take 2-3 weeks. Complex restorations may take 4-6 weeks. Rush service available for urgent needs.
Is my garment insured during shipping and repair?
Yes, all garments are fully insured from the moment you ship until return delivery. We provide prepaid, insured shipping labels.
Can you resize a vintage leather jacket?
In most cases, yes. Leather can typically be taken in by 1-2 sizes. Letting out depends on available seam allowance. We'll assess feasibility before quoting.
