Jim Harbaugh's won't have to pay up for his fashion mishap in Sunday's opener, according to Mike Garafolo of CSNBayArea.com
Jim Harbaugh wore a Reebok shirt instead of Nike for the first half on Sunday. He expected he'd be fined. Good news, Jim: You weren't.

The San Francisco 49ers coach told reporters after the game that it was just a case of grabbing the wrong shirt.
"There was no malice intended," Harbaugh said, via the team website. "It won't happen again."
Washington Redskins quarterback Robert Griffin III was fined $10,000 for wearing an unauthorized "Operation Patience" shirt during a pregame warmup in August.
Garafolo speculated that Harbaugh may have escaped a fine because he wore the shirt unintentionally, while Griffin did not.
