The zip has a complicated history. It was sort-of invented in 1851, and then sort-of invented again in 1891, and then reinvented a few times at the start of the 20th century until It first appeared on clothing (leather jackets) in 1925, and the rest, as they say… Anyway, none of this is that big a deal, but we – and clearly
Dsquared2 – believe that it’s high time the zip gets its due.
