Any suggestions for where to buy new zipper top stops?

I have the same question. Where can I get the pieces I need? My zipper slider fell off the bottom of my jacket, too, and so I do not know exactly which one to replace it with (even if I knew where to buy it!)

Same problem here. The zipper slider fell off the bottom of the jacket. Is it even possible to get replacement parts for a zipper?

I found everything I needed on sailrite.com. Good luck with your repair.

Now I need to find a top stop and a replacement zipper, and that snipper tool.
