tried a shoe repairer, quoted me $70 - $80, 1/3 of the cost of the boot for 1 zipper! :shock:

Setup australia haven't contacted me back either,

all i can say is stay away from SETUP boots!!!

There's an old bloke in the Wynyard arcade who does great work and is always reasonably priced. I don't know if he'd do a zipper but it might be worth a shot.
