Scottevest Woes

Last year-ish I discovered Scottevest, a company that makes jackets and other attire with ridiculous amounts of pockets.

I'm always on the lookout for a nice jacket that has good storage capacity. Mainly 'cause I carry way the hell too much junk.

So over several months I purchased their:

* Essential Men's Jacket
* SeV Cotton Tshirt(s)... I got four, actually
* TEC shirt(s)
* TEC hat
* and recently a Tropical Jacket

Until this weekend, if you'd asked me I would have said I loved their stuff.

Oh, the tshirts had some problems. The pockets are pretty flimsy and rip easily, making them pretty useless for carrying keys and a cell phone.

And then over this weekend, my TEC shirt and Essential Men's Jacket both decided to utterly crap out on me. The zippers - already fussy things - just broke. Completely. I had to rip the zippers open to access the pockets.

To say I'm unsatisfied is an understatement. Scottevest says on their website that they guarantee their products and all that. I could pursue getting the zippers and pockets repaired, but I'm pretty angry right now and the thought of paying to ship garments to Illinois isn't filling me with joy.

Bleah.
