- nindalf 4y agoA brand of zippers - https://www.riri.com/products/riri/ https://www.riri.com/products/riri/
- schoen 4y agoWow, I think that's the most beautiful photo of a zipper I've ever seen!
- ZephyrBlu 4y agoThey're also really nice to use!
- ThePadawan 4y agoIt's so beautiful, it makes me think it might be a render - after I learned how many "photos" in IKEA's catalogues are actually just using physically-based rendering extremely well, and not being to tell at all, that thought keeps popping up.

- throwaway0a5e 4y agoBy the time you are reading statements like this on HN or Reddit or wherever people in whatever industry is being discussed already know that people who don't know how to evaluate the product are looking at that signal thereby making it useless as a signal.

- fmajid 4y agoAt least that way you won't end up with zippers that fail after a couple of uses, rendering the whole garment or bag a total loss. But yes, it's easier to signal than to make actual quality products.
