Zipper Repair for Hiking, Trekking, Camping, Mountaineering & Skiing

Going on an adventure? Well, most of the things you bring — backpacks, tents, jackets, wetsuits — all have zippers. And if the zippers on these materials happen to become damaged, repairs can be costly. Or you might just be tempted to throw the whole item away and buy a new one. Or maybe you take the time to fix it up — but the result is rarely as good as it had been before.

Zippers break — it happens

You've decided to go camping on a summer's evening. You're just getting ready to close your tent to keep out a multitude of insects when you suddenly realise the tent isn't closing.

You're getting ready for a weekend on the slopes when you notice that the slider on your winter coat is stuck. No matter how hard you pull, it simply won't go up or down.

You're putting on your windproof jacket for a walk in the mountains or at sea, but you realise that the zipper no longer closes.

The Clip Zip solution: the revolutionary slider!

The Clip Zip slider adapts to all types of fasteners, large or small, invisible or not, metal, plastic or nylon, there's something for everyone!

Extremely resistant, the Clip Zip slider can stay out all night or in the rain without getting damaged, it won't rust, and bad weather won't have any impact on its very solid system. It's even designed to be in contact with seawater!

It's also a reusable slider, as it has a clip and unclip mechanism. It can be installed in 30 seconds without any sewing, as the zip remains intact, and can therefore be removed at any time. All you have to do is press down on the tab with your fingers while holding the 'body' to open the slider, as shown in our user guide: how to change your slider.

Look behind the original slider, perhaps there is a number engraved, for example 5. In this case, you'll also need to get a size 5 slider from us. All that's left to do is decide on the material of the teeth of your zip (metal, plastic, nylon, invisible).
