All:
Up for sale here is a Gore-Tex parka. I don't know much about its place of manufacture or its size as I bought it NOS at Hilton's Tent City a couple of years back, and I paid $40. I've only worn it a couple times -- and it seemed to function pretty well -- but I should probably get rid of it.
Size is unknown 'cause, as you can see, the tag was cut. It's probably a large or extra large, and it's likely that it was made in the U.S. based on its age. I just don't know for sure, however. I took some measurements and it's about 22" at the seam that runs above the patch pockets. It's hard to get a pit-to-pit measurement as there's no real seam there -- as you can see in the photos, the body just kind of curves away into the arms. Either way it's pretty roomy as this jacket seems designed for movement.
The only issue I know of is that the pull on the zipper broke off. It's an easy fix -- I'd rigged it with a paperclip (I know, I know) for the few times I used it -- but it was just something I never got around to doing properly. Shipping is included at $25.
Thanks,
Brian
