The zipper is a wonderful invention. They are very common so we forget that they are wonderful. They
are strong, but they open and close very easily. They come in many colors and sizes. In the 1810s, people in the
US wore high shoes or clothes with a long row of buttons. It was hard for them to wear anything. They wanted an
easier way to put on and take off clothes. Whitcomb Judson invented the first zipper in 1839. He called it a slide
fastener. A zipper has three parts. There are dozens of metal or plastic teeth in two rows. These are fastened to two
flexible strips of cloth. A fastener slides along and fasten the teeth together. When it slides the other way, it takes
the teeth apart.
