Got gifted this blue Patagonia jacket. Packs into its own pocket but doesn't like like there's much synthetic quilt in there. Turns out I've lost a bit of weight that the L is a bit too baggy for me.

Don't want it lying about but nor do I want to forsake it. Anyone got anything that they've maybe grown too big for and want to swap for my L jacket. I'm an XL in Rap*a jackets and can definitely say that this feels a half size bigger than their XL jackets.

Thanks, what you got?

Some pics in case anyone has anything to swap

Evening Monsieur Le Shaf! I have an unusual Howies winter riding jacket with zip off sleeves that is just a bit too snug. Rather hard to describe so pictures here:

It has a nifty offset zip so you can snuggle down without a zip between the teeth and two cavernous side pockets. The interior is a waffle fleecey thing. Nicely understated but with bits of reflective piping etc. The arm zips have a clever section under the arm that don't connect so you get a bit of ventilation too. Oh, and the arms have in built cuffs with thumb holes.

For sizing I find Patagonia M is too small but L is perfect.

Hmmm. Thanks for that Alex (sorry if I got the name wrong, it's been a while ). Really is rather tempting but I'm gonna hold out and see what/if others have got owt else.

Though I do love How's but currently trying to have a bit of a lifestyle change/clear out mindset. You never know, I may well be back in touch getting more details of this winter riding thingy. You got any links to any reviews or resellers or whatnot.

I have a Mountain Hardware gillet in black and good condition if thats of any interest. Its size M but comes up large.

For some reason the emails keep bouncing. I just wanted to say that the gilet is absolutely bonkers lovely. Just what the doctor ordered indeed.

I was worried it hadn't been delivered Shaf. Glad you like it
