How can I identify which model cordura windbreaker jacket I have?

By using the search function and looking at the images in each thread....

Fancy chatting about them over a beer? I suspect it would be an echo chamber though.....

He spoke to the haggling cultures of some

The first time I went to Thailand with P, we found a great present in one of the markets to take home for @Alex . I asked how much it was and I thought the price very reasonable, so I said yes. The vendor then haggled herself down, because she was either too embarrassed to accept the opening price, or was disappointed that I had taken the fun out of the transaction.

Paula often reminds me about how I was so useless at playing the game, the seller had to do it for me....

Nice.

Kob and Snook amongst them?

Reserved for @NickD

They are.

Anybody want a pair or two of Russell Moccasin Chukkas. I don't wear them any longer, and can't bear to chuck them out....

Munson last 10EE

Just pay for shipping....

These are closest that Russell make now.

Haraki, Miki and me AI'd.....

Have no idea who by.....

I refuse to haggle, I have better things to do with my time......A had a discussion with a frequent poster once, he lowballed me.and I told him that I did not haggle. He simply could not compute.....

Just look at the feckin measurements....

Because that is what they are......

So, use the Filthy Mike clause, which I think is genius....

To paraphrase:

"I believe this to be a fair price. I will not entertain offers, nor will I respond to them"

Can also be read as "get fucked, loser"

I urge you to use it in your listings.......

Sorry to be hogging this thread, but the mere fact of documenting what I am doing is added inspiration to try harder.

2 weeks ago, my PB for leg press was 12 reps at 173kg. 10 days ago, I failed at 183.

Today, I did 213kg and felt I could go further.

I am frankly amazed.....

And gone.....

said in Patagonia, Patagucci. Mattagonia....:

Paula's main ski jacket. I'm guessing from early 2000's. Just a brilliant pice of kit. The waterproof membrane is failing, so I have just filled out a repair request.....

Does anyone want this Circa 2009 ski jacket with powder skirt. Size small. FOC, but you pay for shipping or stack it and have it shipped with your next order.

It is an amazing jacket, but the inner coating has started to breakdown. Not sure if that is a big deal to its functionality.

P looks amazing in it.

Probably not because he's basically saying he's ignoring the ruling.....

More relaxed......
