Photon
I have an old Velocity DT which has various holes from falls, scuffs and branch/bramble and gorse catches and is carried and used all the time.
Will be replaced this winter by a Hagloff
I picked up in a Cotswold sale for 1/2 price ๐Ÿ˜†
Might get at Photon tho ๐Ÿ’ก

What's their sizing like? I'm a traditional Medium (38"chest) which would be a Small in Montane according to their size guide - is this right?

Notoriously odd, IMO. Especially around the shoulders. Not good for the broader chaps out there! ๐Ÿ™‚

I am 'big boned' 6'/44" chest and sit somewhere between L and XL with them - my DT is L, Flux is L but Dyno (sample one) and Krypton are XL...
I like their cut though - long bodied, long armed, snug without tight, and lots of shoulder room. Ace.

Matt, that's odd, as I find them a little restrictive in terms of shoulder room! Must be teh gunz.

Or something.

I have been ok with xxl for a stormrider jacket and a featherlite smock, but the featherlite velo was a very different cut, even the arms were cut real skinny.
