+POS Shirts/Jackets...

Has anyone else had a problem with +POS shirts/jackets coming apart at the shoulder after a while? Just curious because I know several umpires locally who have had the same issue...

of course others have had these problems. pos gear, for the most part, tends to be just that...a POS.

I have two +POS jackets, both quite old. No problems. My plate coat is freaking bulletproof. I have several of their shirts too, also, no problems. They get their stuff made by lots of different suppliers, so one garment may be top notch, while other may not be. YMMV.

I DO get different sizes for plate and bases though. That may be where others are ripping their gear. The old "12lbs. of potatoes in a 10lb. bag" problem.

With POS's problems being so well known, anyone who orders from them deserves what they get. They truly are a POS.

Placed an order for new base shoes and base pants this Wednesday at 4:15 PM. They arrived today, Friday. UPS Ground. While the timeliness of delivery does have something to do with me being only about 400 miles from their Salem store, it is also evidence that they shipped immediately upon my order.
