While we have friends who’s jackets are held together with duct tape, it’s far more effective, not to mention easier when it comes time to change layers, to simply replace a broken zipper in your fleece jacket. Here’s how.This guide will walk you through the steps necessary to replace the zipper in your Patagonia fleece jacket. We’ll be using a Bernina 830 sewing machine, but the procedure should be similar on most machines with a mechanical stitch width dial. Check your owner’s manual for instructions specific to your machine. In this guide we’ll be using contrasting thread for visibility. When it comes time to do your actual repair, you’ll want to use thread that matches the color of your fabric.

Patagonia fleece repair overview.
-
-
Lay your jacket face-up onto a flat surface like a table. Unzip the zipper as much as possible.
-
Fold open the bottom corner of the jacket.
-
-
-
Rip the seam that holds the zipper in place. This is the outside seam of the two rows of stitching.
-
-
-
At the top of the zipper there will be an area where the collar is folded back over itself. Rip out the outermost seam holding the zipper webbing in place.
-
Both the zipper webbing and zipper should now be free from the jacket.
-
Repeat steps 1-5 on the other side of the zipper. The second side may or may not have webbing.
-
-
-
Lay your jacket out, holding it to full length but not stretched. Measure from the top of the collar to waist.
-
Measure the same length on your zipper from the zipper stop up. Mark this with tailor’s chalk.
-
Measure two inches above that line and make a second mark with your tailor’s chalk.
-
Cut the zipper at the first mark you made. Be sure to cut between the teeth of the zipper to preserve your scissors.
-
-
-
Use end nipper pliers to cut off all of the zipper teeth above the first mark.
-
Cut the teeth in half, and then remove the back half with your fingers.
-
Remove two teeth below the mark on one side.
-
Repeat this step on the other side of the zipper, removing three teeth below the mark instead of two.
-
-
-
-
Backstitch at the end of the zipper to prevent the seam from unraveling.
-
Cut the threads, and free the zipper and webbing from the sewing machine.
-
-
-
Take the jacket collar and open the folded section that you ripped out in step 6.
-
Sandwich the top of the zipper and webbing in between the two layers as you would see it when it is finished.
-
Align the top of the webbing with the border between the fleece and the start of the same type of fabric as the webbing, about 1/4 inch below the edge of the collar.
-
-
-
Change the presser foot to the zipper foot.
-
Sew the edge of the fleece to the jacket as close to the edge as possible.
-
Be sure to backstitch at each end of the seam.
-
