I need a 24" invisible zip in a couple of colours but the longest YKK is 22".  I could probably use a 22", but wondered if they were available in longer lengths from anywhere?

Also, is YKK the best brand to use?

I have purchased a few zips from eBay before now, but they weren't the best quality and I would really like something that will last and take a lot of use.

I think that invisible zips come in a limited range of lengths anyway. I think the ones I get may be Habico.

Kleins do 26 inch long zips in a very good range of colours.

They're YKK..(I think)...and they're on the lightweight tape.
