The two zips side-by-side allow a single slider with an oversized puller to be used on the main zip for ease of use and engagement in wet and windy weather. A second zip inserted next to the main zip allows the jacket to be opened from the bottom for venting and access to rear pockets. This parallel zip also serves as a zipper to a secure chest pocket.
