    Single-venters flare open when I button 'em

    I doubt if either the letting out of the jacket or moving the buttons on any of these jackets would solve the problem. A picture is worth 1000 words though - I'll post some soon. As a matter of fact, I prefer the lower flap of the jacket to flare to an extent. I've never cared for this...
