The new bsdtar (by way of libarchive) can read zip files quite nicely.
At least most of them, in my experience. According to the man page
libarchive-formats(5):
Zip format
Libarchive can extract from most zip format archives. It
currently only supports uncompressed entries and entries
compressed with the ``deflate'' algorithm. Older zip
compression algorithms are not supported.
The base system tar is bsdtar (from 5.3-RELEASE, I think)
