Wtd: Mid layer size L not a fleece

Anybody got a mid layer in an L (44" chest) that they have grown out of, or bought mistakenly that they'd like to sell, please?
I bought a Marmot Solaris from sillybigfella last year and in this weather it is proving its worth under a shell jacket. I'd like something similar: thicker than a fleece but not as thick as my down, cold but dry coat; preferably with a half or full zip; preferably with a pocket big enough to take a mobile phone; synthetic or down.

There's a montane fireball smock in he classifieds section on outdoors magic, that'll door the trick nicely (I have one)

I also saw a Rab generator pull on in the sale over Christmas but can't remember where now

Thanks for that but Montane seem to size smaller than my Rab and Marmot stuff and I'd need an XL.
It is a nice looking jacket though.

I had a good offer on a Downshirt but after checking in the outdoor shops in Brum today I have realised that synthetic fill better suits what I want.
So I am still looking. Size 44" chest, half or full zip and preferably with a pocket.
Cheers

I'd try and search out a Rab Generator Pull-on (smock). I've got one, it's pretty old but works really well ... I've ridden in it, slept in it and generally lived in the thing.

Always seems to be a few on ebay.
