Try your local cobbler. I had a suitcase zipper and carry handle repaired by one in NST a few years ago.

Meaning, this may be a job common cobblers do, where ever they may be.

Think he means shoe repair shop.

I wou;d expect any sort of sewing shop could deal with. Found outside/near many 7-11s

In Patong, there's a shoe repair shop that can do heavy-duty sewing. It's a fairly large shop on Phisit Koranee Rd - the name is something like "Mr. Fix". Did a great job of re-bonding and stitching up my athletic shoes. I wouldn't be surprised if he can do zipper repairs as well.

Yes, shoe repair. Sorry, I thought everyone knew what a cobbler was.

Not many around in Farangland any longer. I think they disappeared around 19??
