Milt Sparks belt repair? Udate last post.
So I bought an 1-1/4" MS belt probabaly 12/15 years ago. It has been my daily wearer pretty much since I bought it. Still in great shape. Well today my pup chewed on the very end of it. Has damage. Just the last inch of it. So I think it would be something that could be repaired. And no, it isn't any to long as it is! Eek

Any one know if they would repair.
In the moment I wanted to beat the little dog with it. Of course I didn't. An now we are working on restablishing best buddy status. Mad

Contact them. They have a pretty solid reputation for customer service.

If the damage is minimal, not extending to past the first hole from the end, I don't see why it couldn't be cut off, reshaped and the edges smoothed up and re-stitched. More than that and it's done. Sparks might very well do that for you. It would only cost you a phone call to find out.

how about having a local leather/shoe repair cut and re-stitch it?

Maybe lose 15 lbs and cut off that last inch? I know, easier said than done, mostly joking.

Thanks guys, I did call and discuss and yes they will repair for me for a nominal fee.

All is good with me, the belt and my lil' buddy Wink

Fortunately I do have another MS belt to go to!

I did send my belt to Milt Sparks for repair. They did a great job for a fair price and turned it around in about a week. Just wanted to say some great service from a great company.

Thanks Milt Sparks crew!
