pant attachment

 Question: How does the integral 8" zipper found in many cycle jackets
attach to cycle pants?  It's apparent that the bottom of the zipper
comes off the jacket and is sewn to the pants, but in what
configuation?

This applies to Joe Rocket, AlpineStars, Fieldsheer, etc., jackets/
pants.

Thanks in advance.

 

Matching piece on the jacket.  At least one pair of pants I bought came with
an matching piece that could be sewn in to a jacket too.  While having it
zip together is cool  and probably safer too, it makes going to the bathroom
a real PITA

 

Hmmm, I have Joe Rockets.  but I am too lazy to figure it out right now and
describe the procedure.  One zipper goes on the top, the other on the
bottom.  It either zips left or right.  A freakin' puzzle it is.

I'll figure it out May 2nd when I get to the track and test ride a Buell.

 
My Rocket set just zips together, I tried it once and didn't like it. I
guess it makes up for the lack of belt loops?

Joe Rocket & first gear are one way, and can zip to each other. Teknic
and Tourmast/Cortech go the other way and can zip together. But most
first gear has 10" zippers, but will still work with Joe Rocket's 8".
