Funny you should say that. I have a Neutrino jacket that I bought many years ago and have hardly ever worn because I hate dealing with the zipper. I thought maybe I just was unlucky and got an outlier jacket with a bad zipper.
I don’t post much but enjoy this forum as opposed to others I have left due to the rabid political discourse. They just became sites I did not care to be associated with.
