Or go to a graft store, buy a Zipper assembly for like $1.00, cut a hole in the sleeve and sew the zipper in. If you don't know how to hand sew, have a dry cleaner sew it in for like $4.00 and VOILA. It would be a lot cheaper than buying from http://www.accesswear.com

Let's break down the cost, shall we?

A sweatshirt from http://www.mykidneygear.com with ANY DESIGN of your choice. $26.00
A Zipper Assembly $1.00
Dry cleaner/taylor sew it in $4.00

Total $31.00

Use MyKidneyGear.com COUPON CODE "DES143" SAVE $10

NEW TOTAL $21.00 For a CUSTOM (Any design of your choice) sweater with a ACCESS zipper.

A very PLAIN NO DESIGN sweater from http://www.accesswear.com costs $29.99 :o again this is with NO DESIGN just a plain sweater. So it is much better and cheaper to get a sweater from http://www.mykidneygear.com and get a design you love and just pay someone to add the zipper option.  :thumbup;

And from what I hear the quality of the sweaters from accessgear.com are not that great. You are paying a high premium for something that can be done for a few bucks from a dry cleaner/taylor.

Well I can speak from first hand experience about AccessWear people .. and I have to admit ... Epoman has a very valid point. The quality is okay BUT is more like any sweatshirt you can buy at WalMart. So really .. I would LOVE a sweatshirt from KidneyGear and just add a zipper to the sleve to suit your own arm.

Thanks for giving us a coupon code Epoman!  :thumbup;

As for the zipper to buy (http://www.zipperstop.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/ykk5nyloncoilseperatingzipper.htm) .. the ones on accesswear's clothes are the length (18") that would be on a jacket and is a fine tooth zipper in black.

Lol now I want to go and get this one (http://www.cafepress.com/ihatedialysis.86344561) but I don't have a credit card lol.

On some of the items I offer, the size goes up to 4X and on other items the size goes to a maximum of XL. I have explained to you before how my supplier (cafepress) works. I can only offer to the members what my supplier offers me. And unfortunately they do not offer 2X++ sizes on some items.
