The zipper, a seemingly simple invention, has had a profound impact on the world. It revolutionized the way we fasten clothes, bags, and countless other items, providing a convenient and efficient alternative to buttons, laces, and hooks.
Invented by Whitcomb L. Judson in the late 19th century and further refined by Gideon Sundback, the modern zipper consists of two strips of fabric with interlocking teeth that can be easily joined or separated by a slider mechanism. Its versatility and durability make it an indispensable component in various industries, from fashion to automotive manufacturing.
