Get ready to celebrate National Zipper Day on April 29! Did you know that zippers have been around since the late 1800s? The original version of the zipper was actually a hook-and-eye closure, but it wasn’t until 1913 when engineer Gideon Sundback improved upon this design and created what we now know as today’s zipper. From clothing to luggage, zippers are all around us and there’s no better reason than National Zipper Day to appreciate them!

Who doesn't love the convenience of zippers? Zippers make putting on and taking off clothes and accessories a breeze since you can easily pull them up to fasten or down to unfasten. They're also great for sealing bags and containers, making it easy to store items away and keep them safe from dirt and dust.
You don't have to sacrifice style for convenience when it comes to zippers - there's a wide variety of colors, sizes, and even designs available so you can find the perfect zipper to accentuate any outfit. Plus, if you're feeling extra crafty, you can even add fun embellishments to your zipper like beads or sequins!
Zippers aren't just limited to clothing - they're also commonly used in backpacks, purses, luggage, draperies, tents, sleeping bags, shoes and more! If you ever find yourself with a broken zipper, they're relatively simple to replace or repair so you don't have to worry about having to buy a new item.
