Red, Yellow, and Brown – Made to Stand Out!
We usually aim to make repairs as unnoticeable as possible, but here we want to highlight different mending techniques in a playful and striking way.

All yellow and brown details are repairs or adjustments we've made. There are also a few hidden repairs that you’ll spot if you look closely. Scroll down for more detailed images.


The Child
The child’s jacket has been fitted with new zippers, and around the pocket, we’ve pressed on a stylish gold-glitter frame that also reinforces the area. The hood has been updated with new Velcro.
The jeans have been repaired using a Japanese stitching technique called Sashiko. With the fabric on the inside, the repair is both stylish and durable, ready for new adventures.

The shoes were first washed to restore the shine to all the white details. Then, new soles, a new heel strap, and new Velcro were installed. To top it off, we applied fresh black dye to the leather and added a pair of new yellow shoelaces.
 
The Woman

The female mannequin is heading out into the snow. Her ski boots reveal that skiing is on the agenda. Since the zipper on her jacket was broken, we have installed a new spiral zipper from YKK.
The down jacket had a few damaged panels that we repaired with red fabric. On the back, we found a small hole, which we patched with a stylish reflective band inspired by Dalarna.
On ski clothing, the pant legs often wear out at the bottom. Here, we reinforced the right leg opening with a new edge, while the left leg features a larger patch covering a hole caused by ski boot buckles catching. On the back, we replaced the Velcro.
The ski boots are staying in action a while longer. Here, the left boot has been fitted with a new Aquaguard zipper, which offers better protection against moisture.Finally, the mittens have been fitted with new Velcro and straps featuring an inspiring pattern.
The Man
On the male mannequin, we have installed a new zipper on the vest. We use YKK zippers, known for their high and consistent quality.
The image also shows an almost hidden repair on the shirt, where we've used a piece of original fabric to patch a hole.
Below is a detail of the Peak Performance vest. Two of the down panels have torn. One has been repaired with yellow fabric to highlight the repair technique. Two steps up, you'll see a similar, nearly invisible repair using original fabric.

For Peak Performance garments, we have a great ability to repair with original materials, which in many cases is a cost-effective alternative to buying new.
Zippers wear out, but in most cases, they can be replaced. Sometimes it's enough to just replace the slider, but often we need to replace the entire zipper. Here you can see a pocket zipper on a pair of functional pants.

Finally, a boot that has received new lining.
