Spent $100 on a brand new winter jacket just today, refused to zip up. The universe has provided a solution.

Zipper is facing wrong way (tab facing up). JFC the lack of attention to details is astounding these days /s
Moosupian
Blob of JB Weld on the bottom with an overnight curing and you're good to go.
k5user
but won't it still pull apart from the bottom ? (The stopper is missing -- see how they pinch it when taking it off the fork ?)
evilcarp
Sow the base after the zipper is back on. You do know how to use a needle and thread don't you?
nevoreJunkie
Loop stitch down the bottom and your can at least step in and out of it. Did in a pinch when we were kids and moms sewingmachine was broken
BidetAdvocate
This is a lie. Dirty lie.

so... how do you hold the fork?/!!
jmulderr
Zipper fucked? Fork it!
baldurthomas
this has potential to work with a little more McGyvering
imnotimpressed
Sound on
Ragingcashew2
Couple drops of clear gorilla glue on the left side will stop the zip from coming complefely off
zanzaboonda
Yes! Not sure why people are so freaked out about it. Lol

Too late.
mricowboy
Is it supposed to be inside out
IJudgeYourFavourites

Man.. I can't recall the number jackets I threw away because of the damn zipper.
MeowMyOvaries
This was my exact reaction
tarataqa
but you need to do this every time you wanna zip up the jacket
Unless you put a pin on the bottom.i it'll look ghetto af but eh
ButterfaceTaintClown
why the music? why?
DoorbyTheHouseShelf
Why did you even unmute it lol? What kind of audio were expecting to need?
WhiskeyQueen
Because actually fixing it would be stressful AF so the music is calming ?
Josiahkf
I cant play good music while I record and share my genius zipper shit with you dorks? deal with it!
CannibalisticHedgehog
Probably because it's fucking tiktok and the poster didn't want the hate/downvotes.
Fishmoonindustry
This music give me a cancer
Yup, me too. I have a deep seated fucking disdain for tik tok purely based on the fact people ply shit music over every fucking video!
Mingopingo
I mean yes but what you gonna do? Do this everytime you need to put the coat back on? The zip is fucked.
Jazzbuh
That’s why I always carry a fork in my ass wherever I go
DickMundee
That's fucking hilarious
jnoahj
Weirdly: HVAC tape. Cut and applied carefully enough I've made a solid facsimile to a lost stopper.
slamorama
You can buy a pack of 50 zipper stops for like $3.
fantau
Guess i shouldn't try to fix it at all, then?
kovarniypidor
IDK why no-one said it, but you just need to properly use pliers and push bottom side hard, and sides a little bit, just for better zip grip
chrismofer
run a stitch or small ziptie at the bottom of one side.
hammersquirrel
May the forks be with you
CertifiedPreOwnedButtPlug
put a safety pin on one side to keep it from falling off.
butcherfan0301
Some super glue at the end will fix that

The pull on the zip is backwards.

you can turn a jacket inside out
Look at the jacket(bottom section).
Flyingfatman
I've seen this fixed by putting a stitch where the stopper was.
s8whiskey
Exact it, I just sew a little stopper at the end and BOOM my old as shit jacket is back in action
ZAPZAPMOTHAFUCKA
I've fixed a zipper like this. Works really well actually.
Faradesti
God fucking damn it, I just threw out a zipper to a favorite jacket that is in the end of it's years. Of course.
TreyRamsay
Yepp
Ive seen this fixed by replacing the zip.
SouperScott
You asked what they were going to do, are you mad that they answered you or something?
Im livid.

Lol
Some people are so poor that they can't afford even basic maintenance. New zip in a jacket costs €25 here. That could be the food budget
Cozziechov
Peasants
€25 for a zip? Wow.
Is that the price of the zipper or to have someone fix the zipper. There's a reason our grandparents knew how to do alot of things- they 1/2
Price of the zipper would be €3-5, rest is labour. Our grandparents knew how to do lots because they were taught to
Were really fucking poor. Our parents had it easy.
AmActuallyACat
Idk maybe put a little binder clip on or something

That sounds really cool. Would you do a post about it please?

Oh how kind! Thank you!!!
Oh I will definitely watch it, though I had meant about being a textiles technician. It sounds interesting!
