YKK zippers for clothing and bags

Zippers sorted by type and opening

YKK zippers glide easily, are cleanly made and hold up to heavy use. Here you'll find zippers for clothing, bags, outdoor gear and home textiles in many lengths and colors, individually, as a set or as a continuous zipper by the meter with matching accessories.

Separating, closed-end or two-way?

The range is organized by type. Coil zippers are soft and flexible, while metal zippers are sturdy and striking. VISLON models have strong plastic teeth for jackets and backpacks. Invisible zippers are barely visible from the outside, knitwear zippers are made for knitted fabric, and under Zipper Sliders you'll find replacements, also for zipper by the meter.

A separating zipper opens completely at the bottom, which you need for jackets and vests. Closed-end zippers are joined at the bottom and suit pants, skirts, bags and pillow covers. Two-way zippers have two sliders and open from the top and bottom, for example on long jackets or sleeping bags. The right length depends on the opening in the pattern, which the instructions usually specify.

• Coil zippers for clothing, bags and pillows
• Metal zippers for jeans, jackets and bags
• VISLON for outdoor jackets and backpacks
• Invisible zippers for dresses and skirts
• Knitwear zippers for knitted and crocheted cardigans

Tip: You can shorten a closed-end coil zipper. Sew across the coil several times at the length you want and cut the tape a little below. With metal zippers, remove individual teeth with pliers and attach new stops.
