Abstract:     A draft barrier system having a sliding fastener that lets a user selectively alternate a volume of material between open and closed formations. When the sliding fastener closes the volume of material into the closed formation, insulation is compressed together to form a seal that helps prevent air from moving between the interior and the environment through the sliding fastener.
