The "enable push notifications" bar at the bottom of the forum that I dismiss and tell never to show me again.
Yet still it appears!

As for jackets, why is it that SO FEW companies making A2s can't at least try to make a label that looks like the WW2 style?

You wouldn’t think that would be very difficult.

Not in general. Just the rw collar.

I hate that when you explicitly mention to Aero that you would like a extra 5-10cm in body length but not add any length to the sleeves, that they totally ignore your recommendation and give you added length to the sleeves
(Thankfully it's only happened to my OG and 59er Highwayman, so I'm chalking it to them trying to balance the design or something.....my other Aeros are "off the peg")

At the Front making jackets less correct each time they make new runs.
Their B10s were great when they first came out, with excellent insignia. Now, they're not nearly as accurate.
Then fleece tanker second run isn't as accurate as the first, either.
This seems to be consistent when they don't make the item themselves.

In the scheme of life this stuff doesn’t rate the time it takes to blink, but it’s still annoying . So I thought why not give it a place in the forum that we can air it out and be done with it . Who knows maybe one of you guys have a quick fix for our problems. So feel free to post the little things that you find annoying on repros.

So here’s an annoying pet peeve of mine. Zipper pullers getting twisted and locked up in the slider . It’s just annoying to have to fiddle with it every time you put the jacket on. Anyone else have this happen ?

I saw somewhere that someone said they file the corners of the zipper. It doesn’t solve it twisting, but was said to make it easier to pull straight again .
