The Zip

Before zips most clothes, shoes and boots were fastened with buttons. There were often many buttons on each piece of clothing. And this meant that you needed a long time to get dressed!

On 29th August 1893 an American engineer, Whitcomb Judson, registered a new type of fastener with the US Patent Office. It was made of a series of wire hooks which were pulled together and locked by a metal guide. However, there were problems as the fastener often got stuck or opened at inconvenient moments.

Another engineer, Gideon Sundback, made a better version of the zip in 1913. His zip didn't use hooks but used teeth.

Zips were first used in clothing in men's trousers. They were used in women's clothing in the late 1920s. But zips became fashionable in 1934. They were used for everything, from tents and jackets to money belts and sports bags.
