No. Unzip it off and the jacket is exactly as it was.
No. The zipper keeps the coat closed. The magnets only do the lining-up.
Safety: MagZip's magnets are in the zipper base at the bottom, and they stay there. The slider that moves up and down has no magnet. If you have a pacemaker, defibrillator or other implanted medical device, keep the base at least 6 inches (15 cm) from it and check with your doctor before use.
Anyone who struggles to start a zipper: stiff fingers or arthritis, one hand, a parent or partner you help dress, kids who want to do it themselves.
Most orders ship in 1–3 business days, with tracking by email.
