[CLH]

My zipper is on the left side too. Geesh, after getting this jacket, I think I should have retired . Not sure who was in on the design, but they should be fired (or made to work this year's schedule with OS)

I heard it was Hank Nichol's brother-in-law, the one that's currently living in Hank's den while trying to start his own sporting goods company. This guy got a screaming deal on these "handsome, sporty jackets" (that fell off the back of a truck). They were on their way back to the manufacturer because the zippers were all installed backwards. Hank recognized the opportunity to reclaim his den, and jumped!

If the jackets were made in China, that might explain it. The Chinese don't quite get our Western tradition (dating from the time when rich women had "dressers") of men's clothes fastening on the right.

And the logo will be painted on with lead-based paint.

It happened to me once that I had no logo and a zipper on the wrong side. It turned out that I had the jacket on inside out. Only took me three weeks to figure it out.

Just talked to Honig's and they said the zipper on the left side is by design. This is the way the jacket is coming from the official NCAA manufacturer, whoever that is. Nothing they can do about it. My jacket is padded on the inside, will be nice for cold gyms but definitely uncomfortable for hotter gyms. Did I misunderstand, is this new jacket is for NCAA Women's only?

If anyone is interested in an official rec league jacket, I'm selling them. They're only $1.00 including shipping. Just email me your name, address, date of birth, social security number, debit card and PIN number and I will donate part of the proceeds to a poor Nigerian prince.

Why in the hell would they ever design something that draws attention to itself when we're supposed to be all about NOT drawing attention to ourselves?

This jacket is ludicrous and I hope they go back to the original one next year.

I seriously doubt this is going to change anytime soon. We really need to get used to it.

Secondly, I really do not understand why people still think we are not to be noticed. We are going to be noticed because everyone focuses on us anyway.
