Butte, this isn't mine but it's a pic that made me pull the trigger on obtaining a G-8.Maybe I'd feel differently if I saw a "wear" pic. Anyone have one they'd share?

I believe that it's to allow access to things stored on your belt or in your pants pockets without opening the jacket too much and letting in the cold.UPDATE; Just got the G8 back from the tailors yesterday and the new zipper is at least 3 times the size of the original. Kind of a burnished pewter colored one. The seamstress ordered a zipper that had the option of unzipping from the top or the bottom. She commented that she broke 3 sewing needles trying to sew in the new zipper in the jackets heavy leather. Like I said before, this coat is real heavy duty and the OEM zipper was way too small !
Wife asked why some zippers , like the new one I just got sewn in, has the option of being unfastened from either end ?
I DUNNO. So you could access an underneath garment quickly without removing the entire jacket ?
Somebody enlighten me please ! Any zipper experts here today ?
