@Mizmazzle even better, you’ll be able to climb Everest with ease lol
Edit: for reference -
I'm as ugly as you

@J-IV guess iron heart won’t be using these. We need zippers that are larger and heavier….minimum measured in pounds…not grams
-
@Mizmazzle yeah maybe for the more tech wear stuff? I guess we’ll know it’s the real deal if the Boss decides to spec it on a piece in the future

I can’t imagine this will catch on in any significant way, at least for a several years. Zippers that require a whole new setup for installation? I can’t imagine the factories are all going to be supplied with these. And how would the huge retailers who contract with hundreds of places scattered across the world be consistently able to get the new hardware and assure all their outlets have the machines?
It’s just another step towards the evil fast-fashion mentality against repair. That’s how I see it anyways. How can they assure we have to replace garments instead of repairing them? Make a whole new closure that relies on tech that people don’t have access to.

@Tago-Mago expensive??

@Tago-Mago Laura doesn’t let me look at those items…

Today, I did an online speed awareness course. Once every 3 years, if you have not exceeded a speed limit (and been caught) by too much, you can avoid a fine and points being added to you licence, by doing the course.
I only got called out once for not being woke enough.
We had to watch a vid of a town traffic system and road signs. We were asked to comment on what was significant about the video, I said (accurately, I may add), that the commentator was Welsh.....
Apparently that was not inclusive enough.

At least you have a profound knowledge in British accents.
