I tried to write a review, but I couldn't get the system to work. Anyhow, I just purchased the sidewinder jacket and after 2 days of use, I've got one complaint. The flap on the inside of the collar catches on my chin everytime I turn my head in one direction. It needs a piece of velcro between the flap and the collar. I'm surprised nobody else has complained about it. To me it is an obvious design flaw. What I should I do? It gets very annoying after awhile.

You've got a couple of options. My suggestions is to return it and make it an exchange for the same jacket. It could just be a one-off deal with a snaggletooth zipper. If the new one is the same you can return it for a full refund no questions asked. You can always just return it for a full refund but if you like the jacket try another one just in case.Hope that helps.
