If not, then take it to a tailor and have the zipper replaced. I've had this done before when a chintzy zipper broke. It's not that expensive. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/defective-zipper-on-jeans#post-88143 Sat, 22 Aug 2009 16:57:20 +0000 marianna 88143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wore my skinny jeans for the first time yesterday and discovered an annoying problem: The zipper doesn't stay up. Luckily I was wearing a tunic so no one saw, but they're brand new jeans so I was disappointed!</p> <p>The jeans are from Torrid, which is a plus-size store and not necessarily good quality. I am wondering if maybe the zipper is of cheap quality and I should get it replaced, or should I exchange the jeans and try a different pair? They're definitely not too small, as I sized up because they're skinnies (they're actually a little loose in the waist).</p> <p>Any ideas? I felt really great in them and want the zipper to work! This is actually not the first time I've come in contact with shoddy jean zippers -- what gives? </p>
