On product
Every Zipper Vibe object carries the Z and, somewhere quiet, a small passage of African cloth — a cuff facing, a zip pull tape, a lining panel, an inlay no wider than a thumb. The world's finest materials lead; the African thread is the signature that binds them. It is never the whole surface, and it is never absent.
