My daughter asked me to add a zipper to her sweatshirt. Fortunately it didn't have an image on the front. Great quality, and she is very happy. My only problem is that I bought 3 other heavier zippers that I don't know where I will use. Much too heavy for a sweatshirt. My problem! Oh well.
So pleased not to have to replace a whole zipper on a bulky lined hoodie sweatshirt. The slider fit perfectly and works great. Your site's descriptions helped me choose the correct size. I would never have been able to guess otherwise.
So I ordered #4's and #5's to see which would work best on a dining chair I was recovering. This zipper was quite heavy duty, and exceeded what I needed. It would be GREAT to use on a chair cushion or even a homemade backpack. Quality zipper and I will use it on another project.
I have some steel hairpin chairs that were covered with vegan leather. The leather started to peel and flake but I loved the function of these chairs. I took one apart and was able to create a pattern to sew new coverings for these chairs, reusing the existing piping and zipper. Until I go to chair #5...ugh, the person who stapled the underside to the chair CUT THE ZIPPER AT THE BASE. There was no way to repair the zipper. An online search revealed Zipper Shipper and not knowing "what size" I needed, I ordered #4's and #5's since these are larger than what is available at my local sewing craft store. The #4's were perfect and I was able to finish the chair project. Thank you Zipper Shipper for these amazing products and for giving more years of life to my favorite dining chairs.
I was able to quickly repair a hoodie I haven't been able to wear for months and had just the right size for my garment. I will definitely come back for all zipper repair needs.
