Are you still talking to me? :)
That's right! I had forgotten, actually ive sold a few things but its just as easy elsewhere. I think i offer some bargains here in closed quaters but 'hey'... what do you do?
I dont like the chest pocket, it seems to leak, zipped up. I dont ever use the roll hood, good on a general purpose jacket perhaps andthe collar zip channells water to the shoulders. Other than that, its ok, some will like it, work around and appreciate the design. (though im guessing its not going to sell here now..lol)

M ha yes- relying on it could be responsible for getting you into all sorts of remote places & trouble....

I guess the pocket leaks, anything i put in there got soggy in the wet week we had....
Then again these are all just water resistant zippers i suppose and its not the sort of place you'd generally store the important stuff. Its more the couple of details together and the fact that we got a deal on another brand that has a similar design.

I better say $280... I'll chuck it on ebay if it doesnt sell at that. (hmmm, maybe without being so 'comprehensive' in the description...)

Hahaha well anyone who buys off you here in the future will know you tell the truth mate!!

It looks a nice jacket....

I got an Arcteryx jacket recently, got it second hand off a mate for $200.. have NEVER been happier. I had no idea a jacket could be so waterproof. Havent found any water in my pockets yet....

:lol: You mean without explaining things five different ways, photographing things from impossible angles, doing a handstand in a tutu waving a smiley flag between my toes & whistling the lazy song ... that will get old quick :wink:

I think I'd pay just to see you doing that. Has to be a PINK tutu, mind.

Wouldn't it be easier to waterproof the pockets on your heavy duty jacket?
