Zipper is one of the essential fasteners in fashion industry without which most of the apparels will be incomplete. Inspect your wardrobe once and it shall be full of zips! Jacket, Denim Jeans, Bags, Shoes, Wallet, Purses and the list goes on.
And when your favorite jacket’s zipper get broken, oh your heart gets broken too. That is when you go to a Tailor to get it mended. So, appreciate your zippers for doing a great job, at least for today.
Background Check!
Elias Howe may have invented the first zipper and got a patent for what he called the “Automatic, Continuous Clothing Closure” in the 1800s. However, neither did he market his product nor did he get any recognition for it.
Therefore, National Zipper Day helps to put the humble zipper back in the spotlight, even if just for one day. And recognize the expert involved in the invention of such a useful fastener!
Happy Zippers Day!
