ABSTRACT:
A zipper manipulating tool for opening and closing zippers located on the back of garments comprising an elongated body having a head portion for slidably receiving a cap. The end of the head portion is provided with a hook member adapted to be inserted into an eye formed within a zipper pull-tab and a spring-biased latch pin coupled to a toggle button to open and close the latch. A flexible cord is connected between the tool body at the end opposite to the hook member and the cap. In use, the zipper manipulating tool is attached to a garment zipper before it is worn by inserting the hook member into the eye formed within the zipper pull-tab. The cap attached to the tool body via the flexible cord serves as a handle to pull the zipper open or close.
