Padlock Zipper Sliders in Indonesia

Indonesia backpacks have this type of slider. I have visited many countries, looking for the elusive padlock zipper slider, and hopefully the best place to make backpacks.

Zippers are the difficult part of making a backpack, this is a padlock slider. With this type of slider, I can lock my backpack, however this is not a very good design for many reason. I have never seen the best design.

Edison is correct, 99 percent perspiration is needed to invent, or it is my belief perfection come from being able to say no.

I must say NO, 99 percent of the time to be perfect; I need to refuse compromise 99 percent of the time.

Money is why a person compromises, they need money, and values can fly out the window when a dollar is involved. Then I suppose patience, I would say I do not have patience, however I have discovered I can wait better than most, I do not really believe a person could travel for nine years if they had a problem with patience.
I have been told by five backpack sales shops here in Jogja that they are made in Bandung, Indonesia. I now will take a map of the country, and ask them to point at the city. This is not very accurate; many persons in the world have never seen a map of their own country.

  • Bandung is well-known as a center for backpack manufacturing in Indonesia since the 80's. Some of the most famous brands are Eiger, Alpina (now known as Giant) etc. Eiger has some shops, including in Cihampelas Street Bandung.
