How many clothing brands in the world use YKK zippers?

A YKK zipper has almost become a representative of high-quality mass-produced clothing (it is also an important sign to distinguish true from false) 

To distinguish between true and false, you can refer to the following points:
  1. Color: The color is very bright and bright, most of which are poorly plated products. The possibility of counterfeiting is relatively high. The genuine YKK zipper is not very bright, but the imprint of YKK is very clear! The three-dimensional sense is very strong! The fake is rough and unclear!

  2. Side stamp, DF and DUA will have YKK stamp on the side! If not, there may be a problem!

  Compared with zipper brands such as RIRI and LAMPO, although YKK is not a top brand, the quality is still good, and the amount is relatively large, and there are many cases of imitation. It is good to identify it. As long as a good dress uses fake zippers, that dress must be fake. Generally speaking, there will be no problems if you pay attention to the following aspects:

  1 Generally, real YKK clothes are used, and the workmanship is more exquisite, and the price is more expensive than ordinary brands. If YKK is used for cheap clothes, it may be fake. The clothes sold in large specialty stores generally use real YKK.

  2 If you use YKK zippers for good outdoor clothing, the main zippers of the clothing are generally self-locking (except for the pull tab, which is movable, the lid part connected with the slider is also movable; The way of locking, there will be a physical picture description at the back), the pockets and internal zippers generally do not have a self-locking device. If the main zipper of the garment does not have a self-locking device, it may be fake.

  3 In terms of craftsmanship, the real YKK uses thicker materials, smoother appearance, and beautiful printing (both concave or convex) fonts are used, while fake YKK fonts have all types , And the printing is vague, or the strokes are thin, the pressure is uneven, and there are obvious processing defects. There are many factors involved in the surface coating problem, and it is not easy to distinguish by novices, so I won't say more.

  4 If it is a genuine YKK, in addition to the words YKK, there will be other related information. The key parts will also have small Y or YKK steel stamps, and they are very standard. The fake ones usually only have a few words of YKK, but good imitations also have more complete printing.

  5 The teeth of real nylon, resin and invisible YKK zippers are not easy to see from the naked eye and fake ones. It is better to distinguish them from the slider and the tab. There is a big difference between metal teeth. YKK uses square teeth technology. The fakes I have seen are all round teeth technology, but square teeth are not unique to YKK. Now domestic manufacturers have begun to use square teeth technology. .
