the zipper on my Sparco jacket is toast. I called Sparco to inquire on a zipper and they said the only way to get it is to have us sew one in for you and it's a hundred bucks.
Curious to know what others have done in the past.
I did find a source though..https://discoveryparts.com/nomex-suit-care/4477-sparco-nomex-replacement-race-suit-zipper.html

Source the part and find a seamstress, or maybe a tailor. Might want to get an iron-on SFI sticker as well.

I had a local seamstress/tailor replace the zipper in my jacket. You can get nomex thread from Profox racing.

i just had to replace the zipper on mine two weeks ago. just get the length and go buy a new zipper and swap them out. anyone that knows how to sew can do it pretty quick and easy.

Had issues with every sparco jacket I’ve had, find a seamstress and have a good one sewn on. They for sure don’t use a good quality zipper.

The zipper on my $700 Sparco lightweight -15 Jacket failed in less that 2 years. The zippers failed on both my Sparco -5 jacket and pants in about 2 years

I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER SPARCO JACKET OR PANTS EVER!!!!
