brotherother Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Hi, Does anyone know of a place in Chiang Mai to get a belt fixed, specifically replacing the buckle? TIA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JingerBen Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Leather Craft. Sridonchai Rd. on the same side as Suriwongs Book Store but closer to the SE corner of the moat. I will be having some work done on one of my good belts soon. I've just passed by and it looks like a nice little workshop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jak2002003 Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Wish you better luck than I had. My best belt buckle broke. Could not find anyone to fix it. Went to many places that were recommended. No one was interested. Bought a new good quality one from a leather goods shop. About second week of having or I put it on for the 3rd time and the buckle fell apart. Took it back to the shop and they refused to fix it, give me a new one, or give me a refund. Told me once it's left the shop they won't do anything. So annoyed.

The Hammer2021 Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Brand new beautiful belts are for sale by the hundreds at most markets. I have never heard of having a belt repaired. However, if you have a beautiful buckle and you wanted it put on a new belt any street cobbler could do it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bummer on the replacement mate ... it doesn't sound like you bought a "new good quality one" seeing as it broke a few weeks after you bought it. Robinsons are more expensive as a local go to, but sell decent quality range from which to choose on a lot of clothing and accessories, and if there's a problem they'll be far more likely to replace/exchange. If there are any bootery's as Thai's often call them - shoemakers, (don't know CM that well) they might be a go to for repairs and new belts.

AustinRacing Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Done it a few times myself. First I bought a new belt. Replaced my old buckle with the new one. Did the same with the leather. It looks brand new now. Easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
