A pre-expedition gear check is a minimum to do. While checking my down-suit I found out that the zipper was broken. Disaster struck, black clouds, who in our lowland has any experience changing
zippers in down suits. I quickly learned that they come in all lengths and colors and lucky for me there is this seamstress living close by. She found it extremely challenging replacing the
zipper of my trusted bodywarmer and she did a damned good job. So for any of your mending jobs visit "Het Knoopje" in Elewijt.
