I'm really looking forward to watching it! My jacket came in about a week ago. I was so bummed that I didn't even open the box until this weekend. Strangely enough, mine looks different than the picture posted here. It just says IRONMAN in reflective silver on the back, and has the crappy logo on the right chest with the word FINISHER underneath. M-dot in reflective silver embroidered on the left chest. Very strange. I'm guessing they are reacting to initial feedback about the jackets and changing the later orders to reflect that? It's still a crappy sticker on the front though. Could you snap a pic of front and back? |

Extreme Veteran 833  Strong Beach, CA | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread Okay....one more comment on the jackets:
I bought a nice Mountain Hardware jacket from REI and took it to a local embroidery shop to have it done the way it should have. I grabbed the CdA logo off the web and removed the Ford logo. I have to pay a one time setup fee of $40 to have the image digitized, but beyond that it's ridiculously cheap to have done and now that they have the image, I can have other stuff done without the setup fee.
With that being said....if anybody wants to have something embroidered with the logo (or anything else you want to add...I had "2011" added under the logo, but any kind of lettering like finisher or the distances can be done really cheaply) I'd be more than happy to have it done for you. Just send me the item and I'll take it in. Mine should be done by friday and I'll post up a pic.
Shoot me a PM if you're interested. |

I'm interested how it comes out too!! I still have my jacket hoping I would get a favorable response from the CEO or whoever I wrote. I will plan to return it as the 30 day window is almost up. |

Expert 694 WA | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread sarahk - 2011-07-25 8:27 AM If it's under an hour, I'll record and send it to all of you for FREE. The only payment I request is good juju vibes sent to me in Arizona in November. Crazy good deal, huh. If the broadcast is over an hour, hubby will have to figure something else out. We'll work on it. Maybe you can put it somewhere where we can download it. I rushed home from being out of town in hopes to be home to record it but when I got home at 10pm PST, I realized it played at 7pm PST! ack! |

Extreme Veteran 833 Strong Beach, CA | Subject: RE: Ironman Coeur d'Alene : Official Thread Maybe they made it different for the womens jackets? That looks way better than the guys, but the non-embroidered logo and no date still really sucks. |

Does not matter if you sent it back yet or not. They were very apologetic and understand everyone's concerns. |

I just signed up and will be joining that thread shortly.... I'm in Dallas so I know people doing it. It's a flat course and fast, but I live that environment everyday so I could never sign up for the race. Just like Arizona and Florida. North or bust for me. |
