Page 4 of their catalog # 757 is a police mc jacket it's expensive but real nice quality. My first one got too small and recently ordered another.

I explained to her that I was very upset with Fox Creek's lack of quality control, to include the stain and hole in the underneath of the collar. She said they never think to look under a collar for defects, but that if I didn't like the collar it could be replaced (the collar only).

When the jacket was originally sent back, my wife asked the manager to take the jacket either outside or to another building so that she would not be surrounded with other leather jackets and be picking up their scent, but to be alone with the jacket so they could smell the odor. Manager told me today that they didn't do that, but were in the stock room where they keep all the other jackets. Told her to put the jacket on and send 5-10 minutes wearing it, that the smell becomes overpowering and will make her sick, she said they just took it out of the box, smelled it and then basically put it back.

I am so upset with Fox Creek right now that I really don't even know what to do. I tried to explain to her that spending $500 on a jacket is not something that I take lightly. My other jacket is a $150 FMC, that is too tight now, but has held up great. FC is suppose to call me later this afternoon to tell me their final decision of whether or not they're going to do anything about the jacket. First this pisses me off because they cannot just resolve the problem now, they have already had the jacket for 2 days, I feel like I am being brushed off. Secondly, as of right now they say that there is nothing they can do. I don't even want the jacket back. It literally made my stomach turn it smelled so overpoweringly bad. Looks like I would have been better off taking my $500 and literally flushing it down the toilet. Fox Creek has forever lost me as a customer! I understand that my jacket may be a fluke as many people are very happy with their FC jackets, but I am not with mine and a company should stand behind their product to ensure customer satisfaction.

Think I may contact a lawyer.
