If anyone has a pair of Sidi boots that are headed for the trash can, I have a broken zipper on a pair of my Vertigo boots. Perhaps someone could cut out the zipper slider and send it my way for a few$$ and maybe I'll get lucky and be able to repair these at home. thanks mike |

I've always had them done by cobblers. Get the best quality zipper you can. |

Yep, Just to clarify, the zipper itself is perfect. The metal slider broke. (Not the pull tab) all the "teeth" are perfect. So I don't need the full length zipper thing. Pretty sure I can get it back together if I have a part in hand. My local shoe guy, who has re-soled a few of my other Sidi boots doesn't have a slider that will fit and there is no sense in spending the money for a total zipper replacement if all I need is a good slider |

Is there any name or brand on the zipper or slider? |

Still looking for a Sidi zipper if there's any out there. Tried several of the zipper repair kits and none work on Sidi. thanks mike |

Have you contacted Sidi to see if they sell repair parts? Or a local Sidi dealer? |
