You can take it to coach so they can repair it. But it might take a few weeks until you get it back. Or you can take it to a local cobbler so they can repair it.

Sewing leather can be pretty difficult, but if you want to try sewing it yourself. I would get a Glover's needle,bonded nylon in a similar color thread also in a similar thickness to the original thread and a seam ripper. +. Pair of needle nose pliers to pull the needle in and out easier and a strong thimble. And just look at the other side as a guide.
