I've searched around but have had no luck finding it. I'm looking for #5 one way separating water resistant at a length around 18". Seached Seattle Fabric, Quest, Rockywoods, Ebay, Amazon, google. Anyone know of anything like this existing?
Thanks,

Checked those as well, key is finding the Red coil color, I can obviously do black with a red zipper pull, but I'm looking for Red coil. I know a number of manufactures use them on packs (although most are #8 zippers) I was hoping I could be picky and obtain a #5 Red water resistant.
Thanks for the response.

Cheers

Doubtful :/ I may end up trying to find a cheap bag on ebay and rip the zipper out if it comes down to it. Thanks everyone for their contributions.
