Industrial sewing and heavy-duty repair, serving Fruita and the Grand Valley.
Fruita has built a national name on mountain biking — 18 Road, the Kokopelli, the Lunch Loops a few miles east — and the town's bike-shop and outdoor-gear culture runs deep. It's also one of the closer towns to the Ruby/Horsethief stretch of the Colorado, which means rafters and river guides cycle through gear at a steady summer clip. The growing food and wine economy adds restaurant and commercial canvas to the mix. Whatever you're riding or running, gear here gets used hard — and getting it fixed locally rather than mailed away saves the kind of time that matters when the next trip is on the calendar.
Don't see what you've got listed? Ask anyway — if it's stitched, there's a good chance I can fix it. Looking for something not on the standard menu? Custom builds and modifications are available across the Western Slope.
I run Western Slope Stitchworks out of Montrose. I've been sewing for years, working on everything from outfitter canvas to hunting packs to shop upholstery.
I'm a fisherman, a hunter, and a jiu-jitsu guy, so I know what gear gets beat up and how it needs to come back. Fast turnaround, honest pricing, no upsell.
Fruita sends through a heavy mix of mountain-biking gear — pack rebuilds, bikepacking frame bags, hydration sleeves, and torn bike-touring shelters — plus rafts, dry bags, and frame bags from the Colorado River crew. There’s also a steady stream of UTV and side-by-side seats from the desert traffic out toward the Book Cliffs. Same shop, same machine, same person — all of it gets handled together rather than rotated through subcontractors.
About 1 hour 15 minutes north.

Standing next to a torn wall tent, a blown-out hipbelt, or a UTV seat that won't survive another summer? Send me a picture from Fruita and I'll come back inside 24 hours with a real number and a turnaround date.
