Pre-Order Race Jackets

[runjanerun]

Are the pre-order race jackets basically the same for every race? I've been doing Disney races for a year now, and they seem to be essentially the same jacket (color, cut, material) for every race. Just different graphics.

I have one for Princess Half Marathon weekend last year (2015), and am debating whether to pre-order the jacket for the 2017 Princess races. But if it is essentially the same jacket, not sure I want to shell out $90+.

So far they have been what you've said - essentially the same except for the graphic.

If you do pre-order and don't like it, you can return it at the expo. You'd lose the Active.com fees though.

Was the princess preorder jacket last year the cute pink/magenta quilted one or was it black? Do the expo jackets sell out quickly?

I like the preorder jackets because they usually have the course on them. Expo jackets usually just have some words and sparkles.

I THINK the pre-order jacket was the black one.

I THINK the pre-order jacket was the black one.

Thanks for your help! I decided to not pre-order and take my chances on a jacket at the expo. If not, I can always get something custom embroidered at WDW.

We pre-order the jackets for every race now. If we don't like the design, we just return it. So far I've only kept the Star Wars Dark Side jacket.
