IHJ-08 - PrimaLoft™ Quilted Nylon Jacket

[Giles]

It's weird, all the small sizes sold out and I have been having to restock S, M and L to request, but there thus far has been no takers for XL or above…

I love this jacket but was thinking that a knitted waistband (like on the cuffs) would really improve its heat-retaining qualities.  A design tweak for future versions of this jacket perhaps?

I know exactly what you mean, but for taller folks it might make it more difficult to pull off.  Did you size so you could layer underneath?  Great jacket.

[Qinhan]

Yep, sizing for me is perfect.  I can do a t-shirt or layer a sweatshirt underneath without a problem.  The thing is, the knit cuffs are ideal for keeping the wind out from your sleeves but there is no similar feature on the jacket that prevents wind from coming up from below the waist.

Great pic.

[Qinhan]

Very cool.  I should upload some more photos of mine.

[rocket]

sure, more pics are always very welcome Qinhan…

Superb pic rocket. I really like the look of this jacket and the way innovations were implemented. Maybe one day hmmm…

[rocket]

I'm still more than happy with the purchase, I like stuff that have variation potential and that is functional without looking too mountain gear alike. So a perfect one for me. And not sure if it was ever mentioned it, but the side pockets are really great, the you can leave them open, yet they are closed with the flap concept is brilliant… not sure if that makes sence to anybody, but if you own one you should get what I mean...

and thats a crappy phone pic, name it....

[Qinhan]

I know what you mean about the pockets.  First time I saw them I thought, "Hey, they've reversed the pocket flaps."

[elclintor]

Fingers crossed.

[Giles]

Bad news El.  There are none left in Japan.  I double checked our stock and we have no L's either.  Sorry.
