Abstract
The disclosure pertains to a slider zipper which includes first and second zipper profiles, typically a hinged profile and an non-hinged profile, with first and second ears extending above the respective first and second zipper profiles. A slider rides above the zipper profiles and opens the zipper by separating the ears. Typically, the slider is configured to push the non-hinged zipper profile away from the hinged zipper profiles. Similarly, typically, the ear on the non-hinged zipper profile is stiffer than the ear on the hinged zipper profile.
