I thought I'd handled penfield products with similar Navajo-style, but I could be confused.

there may be some overlap but look penfields stuff, the style is totally different from pendleton.

There seems to be a variance of opinion and experience regarding the sizing and fit of Penfield wear. I am looking at their mountain parka--the 3 layer Kasson. http://www.penfieldusa.com/us/kasson3l-tan.html I'd be interested in reading anyone's experience with this coat--it's warmth and fit.

I sized down from my usual XL to a large on the kasson.

Cant vouch for the warmth of the 3layer, but my regular kasson has kept me warm in the snow with 1 layer under it.

i said it before, i'll say it again, i think that the penfields are sized like this:

mountain parkas: size down one.
rockwool and stapleford: fits slim.
the big puffers: true to size or size down one.

the variance of opinion is actually due to the fact that the garments are sized differently.

i have also found that their regular offerings, such as oxfords and flannels, fit true to size.

Yikes! That shirt (on page 2) is absolutely grotesque!

I bought the Outback Navajo Vest (as I said I would in a previous post). I normally wear a Large / 42 and unfortunately it's a little too Small. Should have got an XL apparently. I'm going to post it in an appropriate forum in a day or two so if anyone's interested...

Penfield easily has the worst customer service ever. They dont answer emails , no phone number and they dont give a **** about the customer ... HORRIBLE

I've had the opposite experience -- I sent an email a day after placing an order because I wanted to wait on the jacket. Penfield emailed me right away and I was refunded the amount right away.

It's a small company so it will probably take a while to get back to you. Just email them and if they don't respond in a day, email again.
