Well, I guess i want to try to fold the back bottom of the gsuit so it looks like a normal jacket, any ways to go about that? I could sew it but i dont know if i take the threads out another time it will show the holes or whatnot? or i was thinking about attaching velcro and possibly sewing that too but i can at least either ride with it up or down, or magnets etc.

any opinions as to how to go about doing this [whether its permanent or not] i mean i can sew it fine but will holes show if i take threads out etc?

Cheeeeeeeeers

you could safety pin it..but that might hurt if they came undone. just get some like clips of some sort and put em on inside of jacket then fold it up..the velcro idea would be good. maybe some buttons? Idk... food for thought

what do you mean by safety pins would hurt if it came undun? would that leave holes behind whenever i wanted to get rid of it etc?

velcro im thinkin cuz u still have to sew i think because i dont think the adhesive tape or w.e thats on them is strong enough to stay on a jacket unless anyone has experience otherwise

bump i'd like to know too!

i tried the adhesive velcro patches but it didnt stick to the inside of the jacket very well :[
Safety pin makes me nervous -what if i fall and the pin comes undone and skewers my bottom!

Definately not cutting it off haha,

I'm 95% sure im going to sew it with some white thread, dont go overboard with it but yea, then when i want ill just cut the threads off and take em off. just dont know how big holes will be but yep

still open to ideas

What about a button system, like on jeans.
Have a button on the bottom of the tail, and a spot where the button can go on the jacket.
