Welcome to the forum mayor, glad you found the forum.
On the jacket, probably made in China. :devilbanana:

Welcome to the forum, Mayor.  On the jacket, I have no idea.  Check on what you ordered, if its a problem see about returning it for different one.  Good luck to you on your new endeavor, it's addictive.

> Why does my new pigeon mtn jacket zip like a girls jacket

So do two of my jackets from beeworks.com (Canada) and a couple of custom leather jackets I bought in another foreign country... I think that's a US concept.  It does feel awkard as I'm used to being able to unzip one handed, and I can't seem to manage it with the backward zippers...
