Well i reached in my inner pocket today in my jacket and noticed a little pouch i hadn't seen before, felt it and there was something solid in there connected to a piece of string and sewn into the jacket.

Opened it up and here's what i found:

I little pendant that says "Saint Christopher protect us" on it, with an engraving of him. Now i am the complete opposite to religious but thought it was pretty cool, especially as they don't advertise the fact it's there.

Apparently he brings luck and protection to the traveller, i also noticed that when the jacket is done up it's over your heart.

Thumbs Up

Yeah, i've searched and it seems that it's as standard in all icon jackets. I guess because it's american they are quite fanatic on their religion.

Makes you feel slightly safer in a wierd way Confused

I take it that you didn't have this jacket when you crashed your bike within a week of owning it then? Razz
