Rugged Thread Broken zipper? We'll fix it! Rugged Thread, based in the outdoor mecca of Bend, Oregon, can repair just about anything! Give us a call and give us a try.

We repair, sew & tailor active outdoor gear and clothing: snow sports, moto, cycling, hunting, fishing, camping, backpacks, tents, sleeping bags and more. Bring us your outdoor apparel and gear, whether for snow, cycling, camping and hunting, along with your backpacks, tents, rope bags, chainsaw pants and sailboat sails. Rip-Repair-Rewear: Just like it sounds, we fix zippers, replace Velcro, snaps and straps (webbing) and repair rips, holes and seams on active outdoor clothing, down jackets, bags and backpacks, tents, sails and heavy duty canvas covers. Many repairs are simple, and can be done while you wait for $15-35. Others are more complex and cost upwards of $40-60 or more. Compared to buying new, we think you'll find this is a great deal. We can fix it!

"Repair is an often-overlooked aspect of circularity. For YKK, repair, along with durability, are two key components in our long-term goal to become a circular company."
- Brian La Plante
Senior Manager Sustainability
YKK Global Marketing Group

Circularity doesn't happen in theory- it happens when we work together. We're teaming up with YKK to show how high-quality hardware and skilled repair can keep gear in use longer. You'll see YKK in new storytelling that shows the role of repair in reducing waste and extending the life of the products we love. Grateful to be building a more repair-forward outdoor industry, together.
