I now have TWO daypacks with defective main-compartment zippers: they separate after being zipped closed. With each of them, I can zip the bag closed and pull vigorously on the pack trying to get the zipper to separate, and the zipper seems to hold firmly... but when I actually use the things, after a while they each pop open.
Does anyone know where to obtain appropriate zippers? They would have to be oxbow or horseshoe shaped, I presume.
And to anticipate the first question, I have not yet made contact with the manufacturers. Jansport is one; I'm not sure of the other. The Jansport daypack is probably 15-20 years old.
