    Those colours and limited sizing (L, XL, XXL), pass :/

      M avail in the pale one. Might want to check the size guide if you're interested. Sizes appear to be a tad smaller than usual, esp given they'd normally be worn over something thicker than a t-shirt. Anyone able to comment on sizing?

      • Received mine today. My comment on sizing if anyone looks back:

        XL - True to size for the product use, ie will easily fit over a bulky jumper or similar.

        From the chart and some comments I saw I expected it to be a tighter fit. The fill makes it bulky but (imo obviously) it looks far better than the usual cheap Michelin man puffer jackets. Quality item.

  • Reloop value is $161, is there a profit to be made here?

      What are men's colours exactly Joanne?

      • Color is a fascinating concept, especially when it comes to men's fashion. Let's dive into some essential color knowledge:

        1. Warm Colors: These hues exude energy and vibrancy. They include yellows, yellow-greens, oranges, and red-oranges. Warm colors can add a lively touch to your wardrobe.

        2. Cool Colors: Cool tones evoke calmness and sophistication. They encompass blues, blue-purples, greens, and teals. These shades are excellent for creating a serene and composed look.

        Now, let's explore some masculine colors that work well for men:

        1. Black: The embodiment of boldness and sophistication. Black is timeless and versatile, suitable for various occasions².

        2. Gray: A neutral shade that conveys maturity and seriousness. Gray pairs well with other colors and complements different skin tones².

        3. Rich Brown: Imagine the color of aged leather or dark wood—that's rich brown. It exudes warmth and comfort².

        4. Navy Blue: A classic choice that combines elegance and versatility. Navy blue works for both formal and casual outfits².

        5. Deep Green: This color brings a touch of nature and sophistication. It's especially great for fall and winter looks².

        6. Beige: A light, earthy tone that adds a sense of relaxation and simplicity. Beige pairs well with other neutrals².

        7. White: Crisp, clean, and timeless. White represents purity and simplicity. It's a staple for warm-weather outfits².

        8. Burnt Orange: A warm and bold shade reminiscent of autumn leaves. It adds a pop of color without being overpowering².

        Remember, the key to successful color coordination lies in understanding your skin tone and knowing which colors enhance your overall appearance. So, explore these hues, find what resonates with you, and create stylish ensembles! 🎨👔

          So you need American opinions of what colours are suitable for men and have no opinion of your own? Interesting. Nice colour in that last link. More magenta than the North Face vest which is trending towards the power colour no "real" man would wear, except maybe fashion setter the late great Prince for example.

        • Hey JV! Myer have some a range of burnt orange dresses. Some of them are on special! Very masculine colour!

          • @Robzargain:

            Myer have some a range of burnt orange dresses.

            Was that due to the recent fire at their warehouse?

    Can you buy puffy sleeves separately? Vests always make my arms go cold for some reason.
