Boo Hoo! I need to sell my beautiful brand new windtex jacket! I got it in the mail yesterday, and it is just too huge on me. It's a Small, but the jackets are Men's sizing. (Looking at the the Garneau sizing chart, I see now that I should have ordered an XS or maybe even an XXS.) The quality, cut, and fabric on this jacket is fabulous!
Anyway, anyone interested in purchasing it, I need the full (new) price for it of $110, but I will ship it to you for free. Payment by PayPal.
Here's the sizing: chest = 38, waist = 32, hips = 38. (For your reference, the Garneau Women's Medium jerseys fit me perfectly, so this jacket will fit someone who wears a Women's Large or possibly even an XL jersey.)

Hi Jamie -
I ordered an XS, as the S sample was a little too large. No XS sample to try on, so . . . we'll see!
If the XS turns out to be too small, I'll be in touch!

| We could even do a trade, because I'd like the XS jacket. Looking forward to hearing from you!

I am interested in your men's medium. I looked at the sizing chart and it says the chest is a 40".....do you think it is true? I am a 38DD and this is the area of concern for me. I would hate to buy it and then get stuck with it.
This jacket is the heavier version of the windbreaker, correct? I have not seen the details on this jacket in some time, so the details slip my mind.

I actually bought Yentna's jacket already. Sorry!
But if you're looking for sizing if you find another or we place another order - I'm a 36D and there is plenty of space in the chest. When I get home I can put it on again and try to estimate how many inches of extra space I have.
And it's like a technical/breatheable jacket. More insulated than a windbreaker. Hope that helps!

hey ladies,
i bought one of these size small and I'm a 36DD yet (yes I know, humungo bungos) an 8/10 pants (depending on time of month:-)
i can wear this jacket with a jersey & vest underneath and just feel comfy/enough room to move-but no more room to spare. But I was tired of having jackets that were so roomy so I went with a tighter fit this time around...
hope this helps!

oh and for further reference, I also bought the vest & windbreaker in a small as well and they seem to be a bit roomier, definitely more comfy in size than the polar jacket.

The Men's Small jacket has already been sold.
However, for sizing information, if you find another jacket: I am 5'4', 125 lbs, chest 34A, dress size 6. The jacket's arms were too long (extended about 3 inches past my wrists) and there was too much room in the chest & torso, even with base layers underneath.

Just a wee bit more sizing info on this one. I'm 5'10"ish, 130, with silly long arms. Oh, and 36A. Size small fits great. I think if you are in the 5'5"ish range, you'd probably want to go for the XS.
If these are offered again, I totally recommend mos' def' Super sweet material. Almost, I look forward to cold weather...

I don't have one for sale, but want to second how awesome the cut / material / design is. If we do another order, everyone should get one!
