Pulled the trigger on this beaut the other day, couldn't help it. I know Fjall gets a slagging from certain sections of those ITK - that wholely unfair 'new Stone Island' thing and being stocked in the likes of Scott's didn't help its cause. However I love a nice bit of the Arctic Fox and always keep tabs for vintage bits popping up on the bay, also checking the smaller sized listings as the really old mediums listed in the Eastern Block come up as extra large sizings. I once had a cracking blue waterproof in a medium that was 26 inches pit to pit.
Anyway back to this one. Nice pearly white which defies its age - with curious amber and purple trim - and plenty of nice detailing on the front including a 'Blackburn Rovers' badge thing going on. Thinsulate material that will keep those North Sea rains and winds off my back at the Vic. Going to be toasty warm in this quality piece of jacketing in vint condition.
