Zipper Identification

[Bewear88]

Does anyone know what kind of zip this is? On a jacket I am thinking of buying - but more sure about this zip. Does anyone recognise it? Hopefully the photo works - this is my first attempt at it.

Specifically, a Waldes reproduction of a Conmar zipper.

HI,

I am curious, on what jacket this zip is from?

The name of the original zip is a #5 Conmar M-40 GILT.

It does, but if you read the letters on the pull it says "Waldes."

Pilot is right- seller seems to have had a few JC jackets in the past. Not sure if this was a diamond dave jacket, as I think he did a version, or if it is actually a JC product. I am very new to this world.

Posted the link above to the eBay thread. I would have done earlier - but saw it on app and was too lazy or incompetent to work out how to copy a link from the app.

Am I seeing things? Or in one of the pics the puller is stamped Walden’s and in the other pic it is stamped conmar? Hhhhmmmmmm…….maybe just one acid trip too many, back in the day.

The French Ebay jacket has a Waldes zip which is the one in the first photo.

The OP posted the question with the Walden, Jan followed up with a Conmar pic to show what it was replicating.

Yeah, the pic I posted isn't a picture of the jacket in question.

JC informed me that this was not one of his because he would use a conmar original - he has plenty available. Very helpful to know what to look out for. Thanks for the pic.
