How to fix broken zipper slider

How to fix a broken zipper slider without hastle?
If you have a a bag, backpack, jeans or a fleese with a broken zipper slider, even if you think they're beyond repair, don’t get rid of them just yet. Repairing a zipper slider may not be possible, but replacing it is easy and usually successful. With a little bit of guidance and some basic sewing skills you might be able to fix the zipper in just a few minutes, it's not a time consuming job at all. Give it a try before your favourite bag or a piece of garnment lands in the bin.

If you have other zipper problems, you may also check my videos how to solve them:

As the British would say, "Brilliant!" I was just about to give up on a broken zipper (slider snapped off) when I saw your video. I've got the replacement zipper already and should have this done in a day. Saves me the cost of a replacement case.

This was a great video and saved me a lot of money because I had a custom guitar bag with a broken zipper so thank you! If I was going to add anything to the video it would be to make sure the slider can move easily up each side individually before trying to zip them. I got stuck on some thread that I didn't see and struggled with it for several minutes before realizing that I didn't trim the thread well enough.

En una tienda del mercado venden los carritos sueltos, mejor ahí qué la Parisina por ejemplo fue en mi caso la solución

So you start off with a pack with a broken zipper and end up with a pack with a dodgy hand sewn repair and another pack where the stitching has been cut?

Why not gently prise open the gap between the top and bottom plates of the donor zipper, feed the two sides of the zip on the pack to be repaired into the sides of the zipper and (again) gently squeeze the top and bottom plates back together?

No slicing open the stitching on either pack and no needlework to be done.

What about the slider that broke? I came here only because of that

[babycakes]

So you ruined whole small backpack for a slider? You could buy a slider.

There has to be a simpler method than having to cut the tread and then re-sew, afterwards.
