IHJ-39 - PrimaLoft™ Gold/Pertex Shield DV Mountain Parka

[Broark]

I'm pretty much in the same boat, just can't justify a coat that warm down here in Texas.
Shame, because I really like the jacket!

Thanks for looking out for me @Giles! Looking forward too meet you on Friday!

Bullitt ordered too. Looking forward to this one! Seems perfect for the climate in the swiss alps.

With Both Barrels….

As usual, I'm late to the party, having only just spotted this new addition. Whilst my previous purchases in the shirt / thermal department have been XL and L respectively, these were sold out so I've pulled the trigger on the XXL.

I was going to say that the extra space will be good for layering but I somehow doubt this will be happening as this jacket makes me sweat just looking at it.

As I'm 6' 2" and quite broad, I think the XXL should be a good fit. (Weight ranges from 14 stone to 15, depending on the time of year!) Thoughts?

[DrBabyhorse]

I'm about as big as you are and I went with the single XL. I'm not too sure how that's going to work out either, but I guess we'll see.

Cheers! I think we'll both be okay. The difference between the XL and XXL seems relatively small. Just really pleased to have snagged one!

[babyknight]

anyone who ordered this early have any fit pics they might be willing to share?  I'm still a few days away from being able to get mine!

[DVD Connoisseur]

My parka arrived today. Due to errands, I've only just had the opportunity to try it on. The good news is that the XXL seems a perfect size for me, just enough room for layering if necessary and a pleasant length in the arms and back. Haven't had the chance to take any fit pics but the sizing seems spot on.

Awesome! Mine should be here tomorrow morning. I hope it's big enough.

Ok, I got mine. Is anybody else having problems with the zipper?

You'll get used to it…..

[DrBabyhorse]

I got an xl. I usually wear a xxl in UHFs.

Still can't zip it up. I'm just buttoning it for now. I'm not sure what's wrong with me.

@Sam @Winchy if you have a min, can you take a video of how to do the zip….

It looks tight or am i wrong? ….though lengthwise it's a bummer.

Anyway enjoy it!

Enjoy ya addiction!

[DrBabyhorse]

^nope not tight at all. Feels a little baggy. I have the strings pulled at the bottom so that it doesn't hang lower. Lengthwise it's just where I want it. Honestly I love it, I'm just not good at zipping it up yet.

Success! I figured out the zipper. One of the plastic loops from the primaloft tag was jammed in it. I didn't want to take it off initially in case I needed to return it. Took it off and now I have no zipping issues. no need for a video.
