nostr:npub1v0tfjv5ahr3c260jtzdk5w48krerrnkg8fmcnc5lpguk0qda04eqzm3m3e , I am looking for someone near me (Milan, Ohio) who can re-connect the "loop" on the top of my daughter's LH cowgirl boots. It is at the top of the boot, on the RH side of the leg. The boots are made by Ariat (style 10034163 - if that is helpful). It looks like you do high-end work, so I"m not sure this would be a good investment as she is close to outgrowing the boots. Thank you for your time and thoughts! I can send pics if it is helpful...

Josh there is a leather shop in toledo i took some boots to for restitching, family owned, real small cobbler shop. If you call ahead they might be able to Stitch on the spot if youre in Toledo at some time. My son has been experimenting with leatherwork in the last couple years, he may be able to do a small job. We were just at Edison for track and I wanted to check out place, but I drove the bus so couldn't leave.

Top was a kit he made for me. Other 2 are just leather he cut and handstitched himself.

Thank you! I reached out to nostr:npub1v0tfjv5ahr3c260jtzdk5w48krerrnkg8fmcnc5lpguk0qda04eqzm3m3e and he gave some pointers (shared a video of sewing a seam with leather. I was over-complicating how the repair might be done. All this is is sewing back a loop on the side of the boot. I originally thought the seam was separating.

I’m going to find the right type of thread and try to do the repair. The wholes are already there. What could possibly go wrong? LOL

BTW… there used to be a guy on Kelly Road (about a min east of EHOVE) who did leather work. I thought about stopping at his house to see what style of work he did. Sign is gone now.

I have never worked on boots and it is hard to tell without a picture, but if stitching is the only thing to repair, it is something you could nost likely learn to do yourself. All you need is 2 needles and a thread.

You don't even need to do it perfectly if the eastetic of the stitch is not paramount.

Thank you for the pointers! For some reason I thought this would require a sewing machine of some sort. I guess I was over-complicating it. Is there a particular type of thread I should look for?
