That’s not unusual, patience brother

sounds like Covid is slowing down the scan process.

No they are probably just being slow, I have packages like this all the time that have labels created for 2-3 days before UPS/Fedex actually receives them.

As someone that works in distribution, this can be normal, especially for smaller e-commerce shops.

When they receive your order, they shipper will go ahead and "route" your order through UPS, which generates a label for the shipper to use to go pick the product (process is called pick to label). If it takes the shipper 2 days to actually fulfill your order (pick and pack) then your tracking number in UPS shows label created that whole time. It will only update once the box is actually loaded on a UPS truck. Also, some shippers don't have UPS pickups every day, so it may wait on the next UPS truck to pick it up.

This usually isn't an issue at larger e-commerce providers (think Target or Home Depot) because they're trying to batch pick and push routing to the very last second so they can ship it as cheap as possible and still meet your deliver by date. They also have UPS pickups every 2 hours or so

the store manager said directly to me, because of Covid, UPS is not scanning their packages when they first pick them up and that my pkg. was picked up yesterday in the afternoon.

she said they wait until later in the evening when the packages arrive at their station. It was scanned at 9:31 last night.

adidas East Carolina Pirates NCAA Men's Climalite White 1/4 Zip Modern Varsity Anorak 2.0 Woven Jacket


adidas Louisville Cardinals NCAA Men's Climalite Red 1/4 Zip Modern Varsity Anorak 2.0 Woven Jacket

Damn. This is EXACTLY what I’m looking for. Come on Adidas. What’s the holdup?

Very interesting idea. Start with basic and add our logo. Been waiting so long, it may just be easier to make my own.

 

[AlabamaBuzz]

Well, at least I have the arrival of a new gold sweatshirt to look forward to.

That is nice, but it is paper thin, per some of the reviews - like t-shirt material thin. But, that is a good thing for wearing in early Fall, late Spring.

OK, got my Adidas gold crew neck sweatshirt. It seems to be a nicely made piece of clothing, and it has a little weight to it, so you should be able to wear it from 55-60 degrees on down to fairly low temps.

For me, it runs a tad bit longer than I was hoping (and I have 35" arms), so maybe the medium would have been the better choice, but it is not SO big that I plan to return it. I will wear a polo or turtleneck or other shirt under it anyway. I would not say it runs a size bigger in the body, but it is almost like a Large-Tall from a length standpoint. I do like the embroidered GT. Overall, happy with the purchase.

Yeah, we (GT) actually got a logoed “sand” piece very similar to it last year in the Game Mode line. I have that one around here somewhere. I’ll find it and compare it. The one from last season is truly paper thin.

Is the new sweater the same sizing as the gold pullover from last year?

I believe the new sweatshirt is just a tad smaller than last year's game mode pullover - I had to send the large back on that one. To me, it was a full size bigger than marked - the 2020 sweatshirt is probably a half size bigger than marked.

No, the Under the Lights sweatshirt is far closer to True to Size than the Game Mode items from last year.

Thanks!

Is this one the better version over the one size fits all stretch hat?
I know some were saying the other hats T was off or not well made?
