If the jacket is expensive, it may be worth your while to have it professionally
repaired. check with the manufacturer of the jacket. Also, Campmor has what
I have found to be a pretty good repair dept.
If it is a cheap one, then sew it up and seal the new seam if it is on the
top of the arm.
Happy trails
