Tony, If I had to pick I would go with the ivisible zipper and live without it being full length. I agree with you, the black line down the middle detracts from your design. If you decide to go with the non full length hidden zipper and Bert gets bitchy about it I can fix his jersey giving it a "full length zipper" with my pocket knife.
I will happily go with whatever you decide.
