If your zipper tends to divide or if the teeth won’t close correctly, a quick change of the zipper slider will most likely fix the problem. Beware that this is the bigger size of our zipper sliders, see picture. The size is compatible with zippers most typically found as front zippers on our Jackets. It’s an easy DIY, and we’ve made a short explanation video to help you out.

This "Spare parts - repair Zipper slider set" is a highly effective and convenient solution for repairing broken or malfunctioning zippers, primarily on jackets. Its standout features include its high quality, perfect fit for specific Norrøna jackets (like the Lofoten and Lyngen), and the ease of installation, often aided by provided repair videos.
The most frequently mentioned activity in the reviews is repairing jackets, specifically extending the life of beloved and well-used outerwear. Customers successfully used this set to replace broken zipper sliders, fix improperly working zippers, and even revive old jackets that would otherwise be unusable. One reviewer highlighted its use for a jacket with "70+ ski days a year," demonstrating its suitability for heavily used gear.
Customers praise the product's ability to make an old jacket "like new again" and appreciate the environmental benefit of repairing rather than replacing. While installation is generally described as "easy" and "quick," one reviewer noted it was "a bit tricky getting on" and recommended using needle-nose pliers for assistance. The product's comfort level is not directly addressed, as it's a functional repair part, but its successful installation ensures the original garment's comfort is restored.
In conclusion, this product is highly recommended for anyone looking to repair a broken or faulty zipper on their jacket, especially Norrøna brand jackets. It's ideal for environmentally conscious individuals who prefer to extend the life of their gear rather than discard it. While generally easy to install, having needle-nose pliers on hand might be beneficial for some users.
