Textile jacket repairs

[geordie458]

Hi all. Had a bit of an accident today, put my jacket on a chair, little knowing it was very close to a heater. Well the upshot is my Rukka jacket has a very nice hole in the outer layer and part of the elbow armour has melted too. Does anyone know of anywhere that can repair these type of jackets and hopefully make it waterproof again please? Ive heard of a company in Aldershot called nine lives, are they still trading? Anyone had good dealings with them?

Cheers all.

Used them in the past for leather repairs, and they were good. A while ago, when they were in Guildford though.

Hideout Leathers may be able to help. They sell Rukka too, so may be able to give you good advice, whatever happens.

Sounds like a claim on the old house insurance,
