Case Study: Enhancing Zipper Performance for Outdoor Gear

Client

  • A premium hiking-pack and alpine-gear brand launching a four-season expedition line.

Challenge

  • Zippers needed to perform after sub-zero snowstorms, wind-driven sand, and tropical downpours.
  • All components had to match the company’s rugged, high-performance aesthetic.

Solution

  • Recommended a water-resistant coil zipper with dual-polyurethane overlay and reinforced 400-denier tapes.
  • Applied a matte-black e-coat to sliders for glare reduction.
  • Produced custom die-cast pulls molded with the customer’s mountain-logo relief.
  • Prototypes completed 10-day field trials in Patagonia and Denali without a single jam.

Outcome

  • The new packs earned “Editor’s Choice” awards in two major outdoor magazines.
  • Sell-through at specialty retailers beat forecasts by 27%.
  • The customer now specifies Lenzip for every high-value SKU.
