The 'LightRail Zipper technology' had been developed for the past few years as Columbia was contracted to design these nations outfits. The new zippers are depicted as lighter, slimmer, more flexible, and easier to zip than traditional waterproof zippers. This Olympic Zipper technology will soon be available as the most efficient and fashionable feature yet.
