Zipped coat
The zipped coat can be considered a popular hit. This model is actively used by women in everyday life and is considered practical because of the style and convenience of the fastener.

Features and Benefits
Zip clothing suddenly became trendy. For a long time she remained in the shadows. It was believed that zipper is the destiny of exclusively sports sweaters and jackets. But stylists tried to combine zippers with elegant coat styles, and thus gave another direction in the development of urban style.
In terms of practicality, the zipper has left various and designer fasteners far behind. It allows you to protect yourself from the cold with one movement of your hand, and will not fall off like an insidious button at the most inopportune moment.
