My UPS tracking number tells me that mine should arrive today. I'll let you know if mine has a logo.

OMG!!! It's HORRIBLE!!! It's hideous!!! It looks absolutely terrible.

My wife's appraisal after I screamed out the above: "It's not. . . the most attractive thing I've seen, but I wouldn't go all the way to 'hideous'."

On the plus side, mine has the CCA logo. On the minus side, the zipper is on the left side, like on a woman's jacket.

On the minus minus side, it looks absolutely horrible.

ROFLMAO!!

I got mine yesterday...it had the logo. It's ugly. I don't like it. My wife's appraisal was "Oh it's not that bad. It could be worse - they could make them pink for the Women's officials." Sigh...

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.
