Leather jacket, a raincoat or bag wears out over time: scuffs, tears, scratches appear, the lining comes off. At the Azhur atelier, we take in such items daily. Leather clothing repair is almost always possible if the damage does not affect more than 30% of the surface. Here are the main types of work we perform.
The zipper is the most vulnerable part. Its replacement costs from 5,000 ₸ and takes 1–2 days. We use metal or plastic sliders, matching the color to the leather. Important: when replacing the zipper, we do not damage the leather — the seam is laid along the old track.
A tear on the sleeve or back can be stitched so that the seam is almost invisible. For this, reinforced thread and a special needle are used. Price — from 3,000 ₸ per 1 cm. If the leather has split along the seam, the cost is lower — from 1,500 ₸ per seam.
Scuffs on the collar, cuffs, and elbows are common. We restore color using aniline dyes that penetrate the leather structure. Cost — from 4,000 ₸ per area. Full repainting of a jacket — from 12,000 ₸.
If the lining is torn or worn out, it can be replaced in 1–2 days. Price depends on the material (satin, viscose, polyester) — from 6,000 ₸. We match the lining to the color or contrast as you wish.
There are dozens of workshops in Almaty, but not all take on leather. Our craftsmen specialize specifically in this material. When choosing an atelier, pay attention to three criteria: experience with leather, availability of special equipment, and warranty. We provide a warranty on all types of repairs — from 1 month to 1 year.
Ask the master how many years they have worked with leather. At Azhur, each master has at least 7 years of experience. We can show before and after photos. Ask to see examples—this is the best way to assess quality.
Leather requires industrial machines with Teflon feet, special needles and threads. We use Japanese Gutermann threads and German Schmetz needles. If a master works on a household machine, there is a high risk that the seam will be pulled or the leather will tear.
We offer a 6-month warranty on seams and a 1-year warranty on dyeing. Repair times range from 1 hour (button replacement) to 3 days (full repainting). Urgent repairs (same day) are possible with a 50% surcharge.
The price depends on three factors: complexity of the work, type of leather, and urgency. On average, repair of a leather jacket costs from 3,000 to 25,000 ₸. Below is a table with current prices from the Azhur atelier.
| Type of work | What’s included | Time | From, ₸ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zipper Replacement | Removing old zipper, installing new one, selecting slider | 1–2 days | 5 000 |
| Tear repair | Stitching, reinforcement, seam masking | 1 day | 3 000 |
| Color restoration | Cleaning, applying dye, fixing | 1–2 days | 4 000 |
| Lining replacement | Removing old lining, cutting and sewing new one | 2 days | 6 000 |
| Taking In to Fit | Shortening sleeves, taking in sides | 1–2 days | 4 000 |
Thin leather (patent, nubuck) requires more careful handling and special threads. Repairing thick leather (motorcycle jackets) is more difficult, with prices 20–30% higher. If the item has many decorative elements (zippers, rivets), the cost increases.
Standard turnaround is 1–3 days. If urgent (within the day), a 50% surcharge applies. For example, replacing a zipper in 1 hour would cost 7,500 ₸ instead of 5,000 ₸.
Proper care doubles the lifespan of leather items. At Azhur, we often see how improper storage and cleaning ruin expensive jackets. Here is what our masters recommend.
Leather does not like humidity and direct sunlight. Store clothes on wide-shouldered hangers (to avoid shoulder deformation). The closet should be dry. Do not use plastic covers—leather needs to breathe. Better use a cotton or breathable synthetic cover.
Don't try to glue a tear with superglue—it will ruin the leather. Bring the item to us: we'll assess the damage and suggest the best repair method. The sooner you come, the easier and cheaper the repair will be.
Repairing a leather jacket costs 3–5 times less than buying a new one. The average price of a new leather jacket in Almaty starts from 80,000 ₸. Even major repairs (replacing zippers, lining, dyeing) cost no more than 25,000 ₸. The savings are obvious.
If your jacket costs 100,000 ₸ and the repair costs 20,000 ₸, you save 80,000 ₸. Plus, the item lasts another 3–5 years. We often repair jackets that are 10–15 years old, and after repair they look like new.
Leather clothing molds to your body over time, becoming comfortable. A new jacket may fit worse. Repair allows you to keep the fit and comfort. Our craftsmen restore even vintage items—as long as the leather is in good condition.
Buying new items requires resources (water, energy, transportation). Repair reduces waste. One repaired jacket means 2–3 kg less trash. Choosing repair shows you care about the environment.
Leather clothing repair in Almaty is an affordable and fast service that extends the life of your items. It's worth contacting professionals at the first signs of wear: scuffs, tears, faulty zippers. Repair costs are 3–5 times lower than buying new, and turnaround times start from 1 day. Choose a workshop with experience in leather, specialized equipment, and a guarantee. Proper care and timely repair will help keep your favorite jacket for years.

I bought a vintage leather jacket from the 80s at a flea market. It was in terrible condition: scuffed elbows, broken zipper, a hole in the back. I hesitated to buy it—but the price was a steal. I decided to take a risk and brought it to Azhur atelier. Master Elena Tsoi examined the item and immediately said everything could be fixed, but the zipper needed replacing and a patch needed to be inserted. A week later, I got the jacket back—it looks like new! Elena matched the thread and leather so perfectly that the patch is almost invisible unless you look closely. The zipper now glides smoothly—I didn't even expect that. Now it's my favorite piece, and I'm very grateful to the master for her work. The only downside was having to wait a bit longer than promised, but it was worth it.

I had a favorite leather glove that I accidentally tore on a nail while fixing a fence at the dacha. I was very upset because these were my father's gloves, a keepsake. I decided to try repairing them at Azhur atelier. I went to master Sergey Kim—he looked carefully and said the seam could be neatly mended, but for strength, a small patch would need to be applied from the inside. I agreed. Three days later, I picked up the glove—the seam is almost invisible, and the patch doesn't bother me at all. Now I can wear them again, though, of course, there's a mark in a visible spot, but that's part of the story now. Thank you to Sergey for his professionalism and human touch.
My leather backpack served me faithfully for three years, but recently the seam on the strap burst—the bag became uncomfortable to carry. I was about to buy a new one, but decided to drop by Azhur on a friend's advice. Master Aigerim Nurlanova examined the backpack and said the seam along the entire strap needed reinforcement to prevent it from splitting again. Four days later, I picked up the backpack—the seam is even, strong, and the thread matches the color. Aigerim also cleaned the leather, so the backpack looks fresher. The price was quite reasonable, cheaper than a new one. Now I plan to wear it for another couple of years. Thank you to the master!
I came in with a leather briefcase that was given to me for my anniversary—it was almost new, but I managed to scratch it on a table corner. The scratch was deep, showing the white base. At Azhur, master Timur Ospanov suggested painting it and applying a finish coat. I was worried the color wouldn't match, but Timur assured me he'd find the perfect match. Five days later, I got the briefcase back—the scratch is invisible, the surface is smooth, even to the touch you can't tell. Very high quality. The only thing was I had to leave the order for a week because they were busy, but the result was worth it. Now I recommend Azhur to all my friends.

I have a leather coat that I bought at a thrift store—it was almost perfect, but there was a small hole on the sleeve, probably from a hanger. I really wanted to wear it, but the hole looked messy. I came to Azhur atelier and met master Olga Pak. She suggested stitching the hole with a fine seam and toning it. I agreed, though I was afraid it would be noticeable. A week later, I picked up the coat—Olga did everything neatly, the seam is almost invisible, and the area where the hole was is now smooth. I've worn it several times, and no one notices the repair. The price was also pleasing—only 5,000 tenge. Very satisfied!
I'm into motorcycle sports, and my leather motorcycle jacket tore at the shoulder after a fall on the track. The jacket is expensive, branded, and I hated to throw it away. Friends recommended Azhur. Master Sergey Kim looked at it and said a patch could be inserted from the same type of leather, but the texture would need to be matched. I left the jacket for two weeks. When I came to pick it up, I was pleasantly surprised—the patch is sewn in so that it's almost invisible, and the seams are double-stitched for strength. Sergey even gave care recommendations. Now the jacket is back in action, though there's a mark, but that even gives it character. The price was 12,000 tenge, which is cheaper than a new one. Highly recommend!
Had leather shoes stitched—the seam on a boot came apart. Done firmly, invisibly. Price 2,500 tenge. Recommend.

Had a leather skirt repaired—needed taking in at the waist. Done well, but had to clarify the fit twice. In the end, it fits perfectly.
Motorcycle jacket tore at the shoulder. Andrey An did a double stitch, sturdy. Now only here.
Had a leather bag repaired, the handle tore off. Done firmly, even reinforced the seams. Six months passed—everything's fine.

Kozhanye perchatki porvalis — zashili idealno. Ne zametil shva. Spasibo masteru!
I brought in a leather jacket with a torn sleeve, thought I'd have to throw it away. Sergey Kim made the seam almost invisible. Thank you!
I brought in a leather jacket with a cigarette burn. Thought it couldn't be saved. But Olga Pak did a textured patch, almost unnoticeable. Super!

I brought leather boots to the 'Azhur' atelier where the strap with buckle had torn off and the sole was worn out. Master Sergey Kim said the strap could be sewn back and the sole replaced with a new one. The work was done in 5 days. The boots now look great, the strap holds firmly. But there's a small downside: the color of the new sole is slightly different from the original, although Sergey warned that an exact match might not be possible.
My husband tore his leather jacket on the back, I came to the atelier. Andrey An matched the thread color, the seam turned out neat. It's hardly noticeable.
I came to replace the zipper on a leather jacket. Master Timur Ospanov fitted it perfectly, the zipper works great. The price of 3500 tenge is quite reasonable.

The sleeve of my leather jacket tore at the seam. The atelier sewed it for free, amazing!
A leather bag was worn out at the corners. The atelier glued and painted it, now it looks like new. Yelena Tsoi recommended a special leather conditioner.
Remont kozhanoy kurtki — zamena podkladki. Sdelali khorosho, no nemnogo dolshe obeshchannogo. No kachestvom dovolen.

Kozhanaya obuv — razoshelsya nosok. Master Andrey An sdelal nevidimyy shov. Teper noshu s udovolstviem.
The button on my leather jacket broke and the pocket tore at the seam. The atelier sewed everything for free. Great service!
I ordered repair of a leather briefcase — the paint was worn off at the corners and there were scratches. At 'Azhur' atelier, Aigerim Nurlanova consulted me, she suggested painting the briefcase in the original color and treating it with a protective compound. The work took 8 days, the result exceeded expectations — the briefcase looks like new, the color is even, scratches are invisible. Aigerim also repaired the clasp that wasn't closing properly. The price was lower than I expected.

A dog tore a leather glove, I had to find a workshop. Aigerim Nurlanova sewed it so that the seam is almost invisible. Very satisfied.
A leather jacket shrank and lost its shape after rain. At 'Azhur' atelier, they steamed and stretched it, now it's like new. Only I waited a bit longer — 4 days instead of 2, but the result was worth it.
I had a leather jacket that got white streaks and stains after rain. I tried to remove them myself, but it only got worse. I came to 'Azhur', master Yelena Tsoi looked and said it was salt stains, needed cleaning with a special solution. She also treated the jacket with a water-repellent impregnation. After 3 days, the jacket looked perfect — no streaks, the leather was soft and shiny.

My leather backpack tore at the corner — caught on something sharp. I was worried I'd have to buy a new one because the backpack is comfortable and beloved. At 'Azhur' atelier, the master said they could put a patch from the inside and sew the tear. The work was done in 4 days, the patch is almost invisible from the outside, only if you know where to look. The price is very affordable.
