“Dear PoPville,
I have a leather jacket I bought sometime last century. While the leather has held up remarkably well, the liner is of course a very different story. I’ve sewn up so many holes and rips, the inside is as much thread as fabric now. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good leathersmith that can reline an old jacket? I’d hate to have to start breaking in a new jacket, but I’d really like to have usable pockets again.”
