How to Choose the Length
Measure the zipper opening in the garment pattern and compare it with the ready zipper length. A zipper that is too short can reduce opening space, while an unnecessarily long zipper can affect the fly construction.
End Type and Sewing
Pants zippers commonly use closed-end construction, but the actual product structure should be confirmed from its technical data. Protect the bottom stop and slider during sewing.
Fabric and Pattern Fit
Fabric thickness, fly construction and zipper tape width affect the sewing result. Test the zipper on a sample to confirm that it lies flat and operates smoothly.
Before Ordering
- Measure the pattern opening.
- Compare the ready zipper length.
- Confirm zipper type and end construction.
- Check slider movement.
- Sew a sample before production.
