But... this is illogical!

So... Something didn't closed very well in my mind when looking at the icon of the ZIP. How can be possible that the zipper is in the bottom part of the image? That means it should be open!

The teeth are interwoven so the zipper is closed. Unlike the fly on pants, some items have zippers which are closed in the down position like the graphic, e.g. Suitbags. I think tents may be the same, but I'm not a camper. The idea is that gravity is in your favor to keep the zipper, and the zipper won't unzip on its own.
