I have one denim of very good quality and fitting vice also it's good. But it has a problem with its zip. Whenever i wear it and go out,zip gets opened slowly slowly. And at some moment it gets opened completely.And ... ???!!! nothing. I close it again. I also lock the zip (I guess you understand what i mean by locking.Making that small metal piece parallel to chain.) but no help.Rest of jeans are just fine.

I had a problem where the button above the zip allowed too much room, providing a pull at the top of the zip and the problem you saw. You can stiitch the button hole to make the fit slightly tighter, wear a belt or use a pin to hold the top of the zip together.

Or get a new pair of jeans.

chances are that the zipper was manufactured by a company called YKK. They manufacture millions of zippers a year and I guess it just wont be feasible to test each one to exacting precise standards before it leaves the plant. You can always take the zipper off and have it sent back to Japan asking for a refund or exchange. It would probably be advisable to band with other people who have the same problem like David as strength is in numbers and collectively you can bargain for a better deal like a replacement instead of a repair job that might not hold 5-10 years into use.

It's not a bug. It's a feature.

Easy access for quick sex?

Still a tailor to replace the zipper is the sane solution.

Provided that I'm interested and it's proper place.

Proper place, I can see that being a possible issue.
Lack of interest???

I am confused.
Are you sure you are complaining about your zipper or something else?

Well, I don't have this problem, because the judge ordered my zipper welded shut until 2017.

Where I come from, if you're a bloke and someone asks if you have a "license to sell hot dogs", it means your zipper is undone.

(assuming you are not actually in the business of selling hot dogs - if that's the case you should interpret the question literally).

So what if you're in the business of selling hot dogs and your zipper is undone?
