MegaSack DRAW - This year's winner is user - rgwb
We will be in touch
I bought it around 3 years ago in GoOutdoors and it's beginning to get a bit knackered...and will be retired to a go-to-work jacket. It has Gore Windstopper fabric and used to be showerproof, and actually still can withstand a bit of drizzle despite me beating the living daylights out of it.

I've been looking around for a new softshell and to be honest, I've come to the conclusion that I just want this one again as it's been a fantastic do-it-all jacket for the last few years. So I want whatever the current version of this one that Marmot are making. Any ideas? I've tried the catalogue numbers from the tab by the hanger, but these are just generic Marmot #s, not specific to this jacket.
Any ideas which of the current range would be most like this one?
EDIT: forgot to add, it has a hood that zips on and off, but cannot be packed away inside a pocket, or owt like that.
Awesome!!
That's the very one...I remember the name now as I was buying it and thinking to my self, "How apt!" 😀
Unfortunately, discontinued...I wonder what the closest version Marmot do now is... 😕

Pisstaking over and done with, will watch with interest, as I'm after a similar do it all soft shell sort of thing.
"How apt!"
Apt? I'll tell you what's apt:

Talk about nominative determinism 😉
I've emailed eu customer services Flashy. It has been the best softshell jacket I've ever owned, I shit you not. You could ski/board in it as long as it wasn't too cold.
If I get an answer, I'll find out if anywhere does what they suggest in XXL for you.
Jeez, it's Lumpy and Bumpy in the same thread! 😀

Bugger too slow to the thread but one word of caution that can obviously be ignored......I find the bottom half of the sleeves quite tight so not to good for layering but thats the only 'complaint' so to speak
