Next time your zipper breaks while traveling and you need a quick fix in a pinch, reach for the FixnZip, a new product ideal for fixing zippers on a wide range of travel and outdoor-based items.

 

The easy-to-use product slides over broken zippers and instantly replaces it as a new zipper. It can be used on open-ended materials like jackets or closed-ended zippers and can be started anywhere on the zipper. In the case of a zipper missing some teeth, the product glides over these and realigns the remaining teeth, restoring the functionality of the zipper.

 

Jacket zipper gets stuck and you don’t have any needles, threads or tools around? FixnZip does not require any tools or sewing to install. To keep an outdoor adventure from becoming an indoor activity due to zipper failure on your gear, the FixnZip is the perfect solution for tents, backpacks, boat covers, sleeping bags, golf bags and a number of other outdoor products.

 

 

“The FixnZip isn’t your normal zipper repair kit,” said Cindy Okinaka, COO, FixnZip. “It’s a replacement zipper slider that requires no tools and no sewing to install.”

 

The FixnZip comes in three sizes: small, medium and large. Each design is able to fit in a range of sizes as well as universally apply to plastic and metal teeth as well as nylon coils.

 

For added convenience, the FixnZip is also reusable. Users can easily take the FixnZip off one item and use it for another.

 

FixnZip is available for purchase online, starting from $9.99.
