The #1 New York Times bestseller freshly adapted for the next generation, now with brand new content including an author Q&A and never-before-seen photographs Inspiration for the PBS American Experience Documentary 'The Boys of '36' For readers of Unbroken, out of the depths of the Great Depression comes the astonishing tale of nine working-class boys from the American West who at the 1936 Olympics showed the world what true grit really meant. With rowers who were the sons of loggers, shipyard workers, and farmers, the University of Washington's eight-oar crew was never expected to defeat the elite East Coast teams, yet they did, going on to shock the world by challenging the German boat rowing for Adolf Hitler. At the center of the tale is Joe Rantz, a teenager without family or prospects, whose personal quest captures the spirit of his generation--the generation that would prove in the coming years that the Nazis could not prevail over American determination and optimism. This deeply emotional yet easily accessible young readers adaptation of the award-winning #1 New York Times bestseller features never-before-seen photographs, highly visual back matter, and an exclusive new introduction.Binding Type: Paperback

loose zip up collar
The zip up collar doesn't hold it's shape in place a bit but otherwise ok.

Decent material, more of a sporty outfit than a tracksuit
I got the XXl which is what I get in Adidas when they’re cut slim. This is not cut slim. I like the looser fit, but it’s not like a tracksuit top at all, it’s like a shirt. The bottom is a plain hem. It’s way too wide for me like this. It needs a drawstring in it or an elastic waist. The material is slick and has a clean finish. The pants are the same as the top, it’s not fuzzy inside, it doesn’t have the same static cling fuzzy polyester gets. It’s thicker than I expected, more like track pants than gym shorts. I need to put some elastic thru the bottom hem so it fits better.

Nice, Soft and Comfortable Tracksuit
First thing my son said when he put it on and the quarter zip was down was that he felt like Paulie Walnuts off The Sopranos. It cracked me the heck up. With the collar that kind of butterflies out, but still stylish.
This is a nice and quality tracksuit. It is made of soft polyester and the spandex makes it stretchy. It fits true to size. It fits loosely so you have some room to move around. I got this for my son as he had no athletic type clothes to wear when it gets cold. It is kind of a good thing that the material is not heavy, but it generates heat and is perfect for colder weather. you can't wear it when it is in the mid-70's or so unless you are just a cold natured person. Wearing a T-Shirt under it is great.
The tracksuit is perfect to wear to sporting events, a sports bar or shopping on a spring or fall day. The pants fit well and are the proper length. My son is 6' and a buck sixty-five. Fits him like a glove and it still would if he were heavier. The elastic waist is nice and the cords are not uncomfortable like some can be.
I recommend this product.
