Rainy Pass Repair

Tailor

Bob Upton, an apparel design graduate and the founder of Rainy Pass Repair, was an avid skier and outdoorsman who worked at REI and often helped customers with repairs on their gear. One day, among the racks of neon ski wear and huge external frame backpacks that were so popular at the time, he had an idea. He would start a company that could help customers all over the country to fix and modify their outdoor gear. Read more

    They do a great job repairing torn equipment or broken zippers. Repairs made on time and as quoted. Wider range of services than I knew about.

    Repaired my rain gear with a rip above the pocket. Replaced zippers in matching sleeping bags.

    I’ve had hoods removed. And ski pants altered so I can zip around the cuff of my new ski boots. All look perfect! And if you walk in it’s done in a few days!!!

    Had to get my textile motorcycle jacket repaired after an accident caused a seam to blow out. They charged me about $50 dollars to do a flawless repair that you can only notice if you analyze it seam by seam. They are total pros, and definitely the first place to stop to repair your gear befor you lay down $400 for a new piece.

    Sleeping bag from 1980 - flat and filthy - now fluffy and wonderful - like new! Thanks Rainy Pass! That bag has many, many miles and memories - so glad to have it ready for next season! … and the cost was definitely worth it - the bag would be $400-500 to replace.

    I just got back a pair of Outdoor Research pants I needed 4" taken out of. They couldn't be hemmed at the bottom due to a zipper, etc and to add to the difficulty they have an articulated knee. The hem across the thigh is so perfect and exactly matches the design of the pants! I can't believe how perfect they are!!! It's hard to get gear to fit being only 5' tall and I can't wait finally put these pants to use!! Well worth the price! These guys are total pros. Thank you Rainy Pass!!
