Etxeondo : Pad Replacement for Bibs ??

Are there any companies that have a Pad replacement service for Bibs ? If so, am looking for recommendations and contact details....

Why not just buy new Winter Bibs, you might say? Well I have a nice matching 2 piece Etxeondo jacket / bibs ensemble and the Chamois Pad inside the Bibs is "tired" (ie no longer comfortable). So figured just a refresh of the Pad inside the Winter Tights would be the best fix for these otherwise superb Bibs.
I have contacted Etxeondo directly and they do not have such a service, nor could they suggest anyone.

Does anyone have any suggestions / addresses of a Pad replacement service ?
Thanks
Paul

    Can Exteondo not just provide you with a new insert, you can take that to a decent seamstress who will stitch the new one for you? You want the same insert but new, surely ...

    Thanks for the reply.
    Exteondo could not supply a new insert (I did contact them on this...).
    There are replacement pads available on the market (eg from Louis Garneau) but am looking for a service to do the replacement.

    Well, as I say what I would do is to get hold of an insert and take it to do myself. Most towns should have a good seamstress or similar. I have a lady I go to for alterations to my kit and suchlike, knows what she's doing and is reasonable.
