A single color is the easiest way to do the zipper pulls, but it's hard to get them to an exact length every time. I'm going to make up some in assorted colors and 2 lengths: shorter and longer.  The longer ones work best on gun cases and packs, and the shorter ones work best on jackets and other clothing items. I'm running low on a few colors right now, but I usually have: coyoye brown coyote tan ACU digital desert camo woodland camo OD green Foliage green black red blue Neon orange white

Methinks these would be real handy if you removed the "stock" metal zipper pull to elimate the slight noise when two click together. Does paracord fit through the little hole left when/if you remove the metal zipper pull?

Does paracord fit through the little hole left when/if you remove the metal zipper pull? Sorry I hadn't seen your post before now!  I've been making some zipper pulls with the strands removed from the center of the paracord. That makes them a lot smaller in diameter, and they've worked on all of the zippers I've tried so far.
