full-zip

Opens all the way

Full-zip describes a garment with a zipper that runs the entire length of the opening, typically from hem to collar: a full-zip hoodie, a full-zip fleece jacket.

Distinguished from half-zip or quarter-zip styles, which open only partway.

The term functions as a compound adjective in clothing descriptions.
