No, zippers as we know them today did not exist during colonial times. The modern zipper was patented in the late 19th century, around 1893, by Whitcomb Judson. Prior to that, clothing was typically fastened using buttons, hooks, and laces. Therefore, colonial garments relied on these traditional methods for closure.
