Ive been out in all weathers and down too -5 wearing mine,its upto the job imo mate My only real complaint, was the cuffs on the older version I got...but now they have addressed the issues I can make do with the one I got for now,its been relegated to the winter work wear pile now Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That will be a xxl i think mate i went for a xxxl and it fits lovely but i like to wear them with just a t shirt underneath so with a jumper or whatever would be too tight but thats the beauty of these you'll still be warm enough with just a thin layer on underneath. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers for that, Gnash. I'm pretty much the same, don't like too many layers on, or feeling a bit restricted. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I very rarely buy clothes new other than under pants which I ask for at Christmas. Anyway I recently decided on purchasing a decent outdoor coat. I've tried loads on but can't find one I really like. At house of bruar in Scotland I tried on a harkila one, it was spot on. Until I asked the price. £1200!!! Now I would normally never consider such a price, but I like it, and never really spend money on anything so do I deserve a treat. I simply can't find the same coat anywhere else or cheaper on line. So, harkila one jacket..... would it be worth an investment or is that much money total insanity??? /images/products/medium/TS23344WILLOWGREEN.jpg Men's Harkila One Jacket WWW.HOUSEOFBRUAR.COM I remembered your coat post yesterday when I popped into Purdey’s,the shooting apparel is off the scale. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
