I am cool with either choice but lean towards inisible half zipper. The full zipper is nice for really hot days but I can always go sleeveless on those days. Tony put too much time into design to have a big black libe run down the middle.
Again, I'll go with the flow and be proud wearing my Gyros colours no matter what zipper is on it. -Kyle On Aug 6, 2010, at 7:09 PM, "Tony" <[email protected]> wrote: > G's, > > We have an emergency which I am going to have to make a decision on quickly > as Monday is the deadline in placing our jersey order. > > I just found out from LG that our "full zipper" is NOT invisible.
