Torn To Threads - Gear Repair
Gear repair for climbers, hikers, surfers, cyclists, runners and anyone else who adventures in the outdoors. I repair wetsuits, backpacks, jackets, trousers, that annoying zip that never quite works and more.Based in Pembrokeshire, West Wales.
Repairs for surfers.
I repair leaky, ripped and worn wetsuits with a specialist professional blind stitch sewing machine. Maybe it's a split seam, a fin slice or worn through knee. I can also repair swimming and triathlon wetsuits, changing robes and more.
Repairs for hikers.
Broken buckles, a pack with a hole worn in it, torn rain jacket, etc. I can repair all that. If you need an emergency repair half way through hiking the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, give me a shout and I'll do my best to get you back on the trail as soon as possible.
Repairs for climbers.
Down jackets with leaking feathers, torn bouldering pads and your favourite climbing trousers are all items I can repair.
Repairs for adventurers.
I can repair tents, sleeping bags and many other elements of adventure gear.
Repairs for cyclists.
Jackets, shorts and other cycling outerwear are all items I can fix as well as other bits like bikepacking bags or panniers.
