The ribknit along the bottom is kind of shot and has lost its "grab," which means it lets lots of cold air in. The jacket's been like that for a few winters now but my efforts to replace it have been frustrating. I tried the LL Bean model on at their Tyson's store last week and found that it generally seems fine except for one fatal shortcoming: The XL is a bit too tight across the upper back even when I'm not wearing a sweater, but the XXL is hugely too big. I bought an LE Squall last year but returned it unworn to Sears b/c by comparison w/ my old Squall the new one seemed to be of much poorer quality WRT both the lining and the shell fabric. I'm giving LE another chance

Squall). If it doesn't work out, back it will go via Sears, and I may have to spend the extra coin to get a Patagonia or some such. PS: It looks as if this is the Patagonia equivalent of the Squall:http://www.patagonia.com/web/us/prod...?p=28135-0-078 I can't say that the prospect of shelling out 175 clams for a jacket made of recycled soda bottles thrills me overmuch; does anyone happen to know where to get the best price on one of these bad boys?
