Regarding delivery time
Sample quantities take about a week, but please contact us for mass production.
This is a carefully crafted product that faithfully reproduces the manufacturing methods and materials used at the time, focusing on zippers from the 1930s to 1950s. This is an extremely old manufacturing method in the history of zippers, and uses non-ferrous metals such as aluminum (AL), red brass (G), and nickel silver (N) as the element materials. The press-molded elements are heavy and solid, and because they are not plated, they have a unique atmosphere that allows you to enjoy the changes in the material over time.

About WALDES® Zipperland is a historic company that actually existed in America in the 1930s. The trademark rights to this brand, which had become obsolete over time, were acquired and reproduced as a vintage zipper.
1. We faithfully reproduce the manufacturing methods and standards of the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. ①The tape is made of 100% cotton thread and woven on a traditional power loom. The weft threads are woven tightly to create a strong tape. ②The cord is made from separate 100% cotton thread twisted together and carefully sewn onto the tape. ③The slider, open fittings, and fasteners have been reproduced to retain the original shape and feel.
2. Characteristics of WALDES Zipper 1. The elements are not plated. Therefore, the Zipper will change over time along with the leather or denim. This allows us to create a unique vintage feel that is not found anywhere else. ②There are many options for specifications such as sliders, open fittings, and fastening fittings, so you can choose accessories that suit your product without compromising. ③Cotton in particular has a unique texture and feel, and is an environmentally friendly product. ④The texture of materials from the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s is suitable for modern vintage fashion. 5. We can accommodate small quantities, a wide variety of products, and short delivery times. ⑥We can quickly produce samples starting from a single piece, and for full-scale production, we can meet short delivery times after discussing with the customer. ⑧We can also provide custom colors for cotton tapes (available from 60m), original pull tab, engravings, etc.
3. Product precautions: 1. Cotton tape is inferior to polyester in terms of friction, tensile strength, and color fastness. In addition, the product dimensions tend to shrink depending on the environment and conditions. ② Cotton tapes have a durability of grade 3 or less. They are prone to color transfer and fading due to processing, washing, friction, sweat, and light, so care must be taken. ③ Cotton tapes may have some color variation depending on the dye lot. 4. Due to the shape of the elements, metal zippers may have different slider movements on the top and bottom, such as in two way separator opening or double specifications. ⑤The AG and BK specifications of the elements are not plated but are specially treated with chemicals. The color of the elements may transfer to the textile when sewing. The surface may also change due to friction or post-processing. *There are various types of zippers depending on the purpose. Please choose the appropriate type based on the strength and durability required for the item you will be using it for. Please note that we cannot take any responsibility for any defects caused by post-processing by the customer. In addition, if post-processing is performed, the zipper may change or be affected depending on the processing method, chemicals, dyes, and environment. Be sure to test it before use.
What color is the slider for the western white metal zipper?
It will be nickel colored. The nickel color has a slightly yellow tint like a 500-yen coin, but the nickel color is a whitish, bright silver color.
Is it possible to change the color of the slider?
Is possible. As a general rule, if nothing is specified, the metal zipper will have a slider of the same color as the element, and the other zipper will have a slider of the same color as the tape color. (Slider with a retrofit puller is only available in metal color) The color of the slider on the product page is a sample, so the color will change depending on the zipper you order. If you want to change the color of the slider, please describe it in the order memo.
Which slider should I choose if I want to attach a Zipper’s Pull Tab later?
Please select a slider such as CA or ZA / ZF that can be retrofitted with a Zipper’s Pull Tab tab. The difference between CA and ZA / ZF is whether or not a Zipper’s Pull Tab can be attached from the root. Zipper’s Pull Tab are sold by various manufacturers, but please check the specifications as to whether they can be attached to CA or ZA. The color of the slider for retrofitting is only metal color.
Is it possible to arrange only YKK zipper sliders?
Basically, we cannot accept orders for the slider alone, but we can arrange it if you want to arrange it together with the chain zipper or if you use it for the zipper you have purchased from APPARELX in the past. In that case Please let us know the type, size, slider color, slider part number and quantity of the YKK zipper you purchased from the contact form on the support page . We will reply to you after confirmation.
I want a zipper for head-to-head and butt-matching. How should I place an order?
Please order a zipper and specify "head-to-head" or "butt-to-butt" in the remarks column. We will confirm the unit price and delivery date and contact you by email.
How should I choose the slider with or without lock?
You can judge by the second letter of the slider part number. "A" = automatic lock (When you release the hand from the Zipper’s Pull Tab automatically is locked, the lock is disengaged by pulling the Zipper’s Pull Tab) "F" = non-locking (slider that does not lock the pull tab at any position on the fuselage) "N" = Notch lock (The torso has a notch on the shoulder and locks when the chain is opened so that it touches the shoulder) "W" = reversible (there are Zipper’s Pull Tab on the front and back, which can be opened from both) "U" = reversible (an automatic slider that allows one puller to move along the rotating rail and can be opened and closed from both the front and back.)
I would like to order with different sliders on the top and bottom of the reverse opening zipper, what should I do?
If you write the desired slider up and down in the memo field of the zipper when ordering, we will change it to the desired slider and arrange it.
Is it possible to arrange a comprehensive zipper catalog "FASTENING Senka"?
Currently, the booklet type FASTENING Senka is no longer manufactured. We apologize for the inconvenience, but you can download it from the YKK website, so please check it from there. https://www.ykkfastening.com/japan/catalog/
I would like to order with a color slider that is not listed on the product page, what should I do?
If you enter the desired color and slider in the memo field of the zipper when ordering, we will change it and arrange it.
