Origins of ZipIt:
The first model of the ZipIt bags was designed in 2003 by Ishai Halmut, a student at the prestigious Shenkar College of Engineering and Design in Israel. The principles that gave rise to the ZipIt bag were simple: must be constructed of the highest quality, be practical enough to be used throughout the day, appeal to the widest range of fashion conscious consumers, and affordable enough so it can be enjoyed by everyone regardless of income or status.
Fast forward to 2010, to discover that over the past seven years ZipIt has sold over 5 million bags to savvy consumers in over 35 countries. ZipIt’s were first commercially introduced during the 2005 Spree Expo in Boston and beat our hundreds of other products to be acclaimed as the “Product of the Year” by industry experts. The bags have gone on to win similar accolades such as “most Innovate Product of the Year” and “Best Product of Show” throughout Europe and the Middle East. Today, ZipIt bags are available in 23 styles and have become a household name to children and adults looking for a trendy bag that can be used for school, work, and play. The goal of ZipIt designers is to create at least one new bag design every quarter.
Why a ZipIt?
So how does a ZipIt work and why is it so unique? Every ZipIt bag arrives as a single strip of high quality zipper made exclusively for our brand and lined with 100% knit polyester. As our products are shipped world wide, this compact design along with our 100% recycled packaging allows ZipIt to remain environmentally conscious and reduces our carbon footprint significantly.
Now all you have to do is grab the Zinc fastener and pull, pull, (and pull a little more depending on the size of your bag) to reveal a quality bag weighing less than 1 pound that can carry up to 75 pounds!
Ingenious, yet simple design of the ZipIt bags allow them to be washed and dried so you never have to hesitate using your bag for a new adventure.
Another contributing factor to selling over 5 million bags worldwide is the affordability of ZipIt’s. Our entire designer bags range from under $10 to just over $65.
