A zipper system comprises two elongated coupling elements (38) and (40) each having a row of interlocking elements (42) and (44) mounted on and along their respective inner edges. The zipper provides arresting female members (22Z, 22', 22, 36, 36', 23, 23') including a female arresting slider (22Z, 22', 22) slidably connected to one of two elongated coupling elements (38, 40). The arresting female members (22Z, 22', 22, 36, 36', 23, 23') are adapted to unite with each other (differently in various embodiments) to form a coupled female unit (22F) with a planar surface for coupling and uncoupling with a male interlocking element (26, 26', 32, 34, 26E-26N, 80-90). The zipper also comprises intergarment plates (50, 52) with thumbholds (54, 56), strap holders (94), a two-way zipper (23, 23') and resilient locking assemblies (28, 30). A rigid two piece interlocking buckle (11) attached to the respective inner edges of the two elongated coupling elements provide quick and easy initial snap-lock coupling of the two elongated coupling elements (38, 40) which are coupled and uncoupled along their length by female arresting slider (22Z, 22', 22).
