'''Zip''' (also known as '''Gash''' in ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]]'') is a recurring clothing chain first introduced in ''[[Grand Theft Auto III]]''. Whilst most of its depictions in the series are cosmetic, Zip serves as an [[Clothing in GTA San Andreas|interactive clothing chain]] in ''[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]''.
   
  +
== Description ==
There are stores in [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]] in [[Grand Theft Auto III]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]]. Certain pedestrians carry shopping bags with the Zip logo on them and are usually seen in the [[Newport]] and [[Belleville Park]] districts of [[Staunton Island]].
 
  +
===''Grand Theft Auto III'' and ''Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories''===
  +
The Zip brand is commonly associated with consumerism in the series, prominently featured in both ''[[Grand Theft Auto III]]'' and ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]]'' on shopping bags carried by certain [[pedestrian]]s in the commercial districts of [[Newport]] and [[Belleville Park]] in [[Staunton Island]], [[Liberty City (3D Universe)|Liberty City]]; Zip boxes may also be found in the rear compartment of certain [[Landstalker]]s, implying the vehicle is used to transport excessive amount of purchased Zip merchandise. One location exists in-game in Belleville park in both games, although its inaccessible. Several Zip ads also appear at [[The Shopping Mall]].
   
  +
===''Grand Theft Auto: Vice City'' and ''Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories''===
Zip is known as Gash in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]]; however, there are Zip logos on some vans and on the [[Hotring Racer]]. There is a Gash store in the [[North Point Mall]] which pays protection money to [[Tommy Vercetti]]. The [[Casual Outfit (GTA VC)|Casual Outfit]] is available here. Floating hundreds of feet above [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]] is a blimp that bears the Gash logo.
 
  +
In ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]]'', the Zip brand is replaced by '''Gash''', which shares the same logo design as Zip; however, Zip logos are visible on [[Benson]] courier vans and [[Hotring Racer]]s in the game. The game also features a two-storey Gash outlet at the [[North Point Mall]] in [[Vice Point]], [[Vice City (3D Universe)|Vice City]], which prominently features a [[Clothing in GTA Vice City|"Casual" clothing pickup]] in front of the second floor entrance, and is also incorporated into the mission "[[Shakedown (GTA VC)|Shakedown]]" as one of the outlets the player is required to intimidate for protection money. A [[Hidden Packages in GTA Vice City|hidden package]] can be [[Pickups|picked up]] at the back of the upstairs west wing in the Gash store above the interior's escalators. In ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]]'', the second floor of what would be Gash outlet is a [[Flyingdale's]] store while the first floor appears to be either vacant or under renovation.
   
  +
The Gash brand is also promoted on a [[The Gash Blimp|blimp]] that floats hundreds of feet above [[Downtown Vice City]].

===''Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas''===
In [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], there are Zip stores located in [[Downtown Los Santos (3D Universe)|Downtown]], [[Los Santos (3D Universe)|Los Santos]]; [[Downtown San Fierro|Downtown]], [[San Fierro]]; and [[Pilgrim]]/[[Starfish Casino]], [[Las Venturas]]. All of these branches are unlocked upon completing the mission [[Are You Going to San Fierro?]]. Players can buy various attires and clothing for [[Carl Johnson]] to wear to increase his [[Statistics#GTA SA Statistics|sex appeal]] or other people's [[respect]] toward him. There is a building that is under construction in [[King's]] in San Fierro bearing a Zip logo. The building may be intended for another Zip store, although this is never confirmed throughout the game, as the construction never finished. It's also possible that the construction project is sponsored by Zip, or could quite possibly be the real Gap headquarters Zip is based from, because of the fact that the real Gap headquarters in San Francisco, CA was built right around the same time San Andreas takes place.
 
  +
Zip serves as a chain of [[Clothing in GTA San Andreas|interactive clothing stores]] in ''[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]'', unlocked upon completion of "[[Are You Going to San Fierro?]]"; the outlet serves as a mid-range clothing retailer ranked between [[Binco]] and [[Sub Urban]], and [[ProLaps]], [[Victim]] and [[Didier Sachs]], selling clothes priced moderately. The chain boasts a total of four outlets all over [[State of San Andreas (3D Universe)|San Andreas]].
   
  +
In addition, an eight storey building in [[King's]], [[San Fierro (3D Universe)|San Fierro]], features scaffolfing with banners that sport the Zip logo and an announcement that the building would house a Zip outlet. This building could quite possibly be based on that of the real Gap headquarters Zip is based from, because of the fact that the real Gap headquarters in San Francisco, California, was built right around the same time the game takes place.

Clothing on offer from Zip primarily consist of mid-range casualwear that are not primarily suited for use among gang members, as nearly all of the clothing lack the green gang colors of the [[Grove Street Families]], as opposed to those found in [[Binco]] and [[Sub Urban]]. However, a few generic clothing from Zip (T-shirts and hoodies) are in fact recolors of clothing seen in other stores, and Zip is also the only clothing store that offers rugged street or hiking boots.

Not to be confused with ZiT.

Zip (also known as Gash in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City) is a recurring clothing chain first introduced in Grand Theft Auto III. Whilst most of its depictions in the series are cosmetic, Zip serves as an interactive clothing chain in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

Description

Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories

The Zip brand is commonly associated with consumerism in the series, prominently featured in both Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories on shopping bags carried by certain pedestrians in the commercial districts of Newport and Belleville Park in Staunton Island, Liberty City; Zip boxes may also be found in the rear compartment of certain Landstalkers, implying the vehicle is used to transport excessive amount of purchased Zip merchandise. One location exists in-game in Belleville park in both games, although its inaccessible. Several Zip ads also appear at The Shopping Mall.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories

In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, the Zip brand is replaced by Gash, which shares the same logo design as Zip; however, Zip logos are visible on Benson courier vans and Hotring Racers in the game. The game also features a two-storey Gash outlet at the North Point Mall in Vice Point, Vice City, which prominently features a "Casual" clothing pickup in front of the second floor entrance, and is also incorporated into the mission "Shakedown" as one of the outlets the player is required to intimidate for protection money. A hidden package can be picked up at the back of the upstairs west wing in the Gash store above the interior's escalators. In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, the second floor of what would be Gash outlet is a Flyingdale's store while the first floor appears to be either vacant or under renovation.

The Gash brand is also promoted on a blimp that floats hundreds of feet above Downtown Vice City.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

Zip serves as a chain of interactive clothing stores in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, unlocked upon completion of "Are You Going to San Fierro?"; the outlet serves as a mid-range clothing retailer ranked between Binco and Sub Urban, and ProLaps, Victim and Didier Sachs, selling clothes priced moderately. The chain boasts a total of four outlets all over San Andreas.

In addition, an eight storey building in King's, San Fierro, features scaffolfing with banners that sport the Zip logo and an announcement that the building would house a Zip outlet. This building could quite possibly be based on that of the real Gap headquarters Zip is based from, because of the fact that the real Gap headquarters in San Francisco, California, was built right around the same time the game takes place.

Grand Theft Auto V

Zip reappears in Grand Theft Auto V, albeit with a logo closer to Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories logo, and no longer featuring a background with the wording. The store is inaccessible to the player and plays no role in the storyline whatsoever.
