1. Estimated Prices by Body Part

Contents	Estimated Prices (Tax Included)	Comments
Repair of small tears and fraying (1 to several spots)	¥1,100〜	If you get minor issues—like small tears around the neck or crotch—fixed while they’re still minor, it’s a great value.
Repairing Cracks in Neck, Wrist, and Ankle Ribs	¥3,300〜	Areas prone to wear and tear from frequent removal and installation. Early repairs help prevent water intrusion.
Knee Pad Replacement and Extensive Reupholstering	¥5,500〜	This is an area that often gets worn down from friction with the leash or board.
Replacing the fabric around the seat	¥5,500〜	We often receive requests from people who experience significant friction during takeoff.
Zipper Replacement (Back Zip, Front Zip)	¥7,700〜	The cost varies depending on whether only the slider needs to be replaced or the entire unit needs to be replaced.
Size adjustments (such as adjusting the width and length)	Custom Quote	Since adjustments for changes in body shape vary by panel, we will provide recommendations based on your photos and measurements.

*Please note that the above is merely an example. Actual prices may vary depending on the type and thickness of the fabric, as well as the extent of the damage.

2. Common "Repair Combinations"

Option 1: Neckline repair + repairs around the crotch and buttocks

The most common issue is a combination of cracks around the neck and fraying or tears around the crotch and buttocks.
Since these areas bear the brunt of the strain during paddling and when changing clothes, it’s common for them to show signs of wear at the same time.

Option 2: Replacing knee pads and repairing small holes at the same time

In many cases, we repair small pinholes around the knee pads at the same time as replacing them.
We often hear customers say, “Since I’m sending it in anyway, I’d like to have those small holes I’ve been worried about fixed at the same time.”

Option 3: Zipper Replacement + Other Minor Repairs

While our main service is zipper replacement,
we often repair other small tears at the same time, figuring, "Since we're sending it to the factory anyway."

3. Things that would be helpful to know when requesting a quote

• When did you buy the wet suit? (A rough estimate of the year is fine.)
• Which season do you mainly use it in (e.g., for the dead of winter or spring)?
• Points of particular concern (in order of priority)

If you could provide this information,
it would make it easier for us to suggest several options, such as "fixing everything" or "keeping it to a minimum. "

4. Don’t base your decision solely on price; consider how much you plan to use it as well.

Even if the damage is the same,

• Do you want to use your favorite bottle for as long as possible?
• Is it enough just to get through this season?
• Are you planning to replace it and just want to make the bare minimum repairs?

The best repair option will vary depending on the situation.
As a repair shop, we aim to provide recommendations that take into account not only the cost but also how you plan to use the item.
