[pct-l] backpack repair sources?

[patti kulesz]

Clayton...sorry about the pack...I don't know that you will find
someone to do that if Lowe doesn't guarantee their work for
life...which really sux for anyone who buys their packs. But now any new prospective buyers WILL know. I work in a store similar, but way better, to REI and I will surely pass on the bad word. We don't sell their packs...now I know why. Anyways, you could try the people we use for repairs, but I can't make any promises that they will be able to replace the shoulder straps. Everything else they are awesome at, they also clean sleeping bags too!

I picked up a Lowe backpack that is old but in reasonable condition.  The
shoulder straps are in good shape but the foam inside has hardened and is
crumbling.  I contacted Lowe and they don't offer replacement items for
their "older packs".  Anyone have suggestions for repair/replacement
sources?
 
I'm in SF Bay Area, but could mail out.
 
Thanks,
