Repairs & Resizing
In addition to our made-to-measure and custom design services, Vanson also offers expert repair and resizing services. The Unit Number embossed into every garment enables us to pull up the original patterns used to make your jacket. Additionally, we track any repairs and modifications made to each garment, so we can rebuild or remake the garment at any point in time.
We will repair crash damage and replace zippers and snaps to the point where any damage becomes virtually unnoticeable. Aging and cosmetic blemishes can also be rectified using our Wash + Re-dye Service. Graphics and Logos can also be changed or replaced as desired.
We can also open up or take in your Vanson jacket if you’ve changed physically since the time you purchased your original Vanson.
While most repair and resizing work is fairly straightforward, every situation is unique and will be evaluated and priced out on an individual basis.
You can return your Vanson jacket for repair or resizing through your dealer or by sending it directly to us.
