US Patent 8453301 Zipper pull tab retention device

A zipper pull tab retention device includes a pull tab cover and a fastening means. The pull tab cover comprises a durable friction fit cover which slides over an existing zipper pull tab. The fastening means includes a metal pin which is integrally attached to the pull tab cover. The pin is located on a surface of the pull tab cover which faces a user's chest. The pin engages the teeth of a zipper, thus allowing a user to press the pull tab cover against the zipper and prevent movement of a zipper pull tab until the pull tab cover is pulled away from the zipper.
