You can buy leather or faux leather chair mending kits online or at local home improvement stores. We found one online and it worked great! You cannot tell there was ever a problem. We also fixed our son's leather coat tear with it. You can find then at Walmart, Home Depot, Lowes, Amazon and many other places.
Easy Peasy - especially if it is a clean cut. Make sure the tear is clean. Take a toothpick and dip it in some glue like E6000. Run the toothpick with the glue on it along the cut edge and push the edges gently together. Gently push the edges together so they are flat, wiping off any excess glue. Work slowly and gently until the cut virtually disappears. Do not move the leather for about 24 hours, then you are good to go.
