The first model of the ZipIt bags was designed in 2003 by Ishai Halmut, a student at the prestigious Shenkar College of Engineering and Design in Israel. The principles that gave rise to the ZipIt bag were simple: must be constructed of the highest quality, be practical enough to be used throughout the day, appeal to the widest range of fashion conscious consumers, and affordable enough so it can be enjoyed by everyone regardless of income or status.
