I think that we've got 1 XXL left. The cost of the fabric shot up making them un-viable to make any more, we're looking around for other options but there's not many about.

Tony,

I'm genuinely sorry to hear that as they were (are!) a great and versatile all-round jacket. Real shame.

However, does that mean that mine is now effectively a limited edition and worth £300!?! Woo-hoo! :D

On a slightly more serious note, perhaps it's possible to look at an alternative like a bush-shirt or even something small and less expensive like a BCUK buff?

Anyway, hope you get something sorted soon.

In my head I'm seeing the picture in your avatar reciting that with the voice of Paul Whitehouse and his tailor character in the Fast Show. Suits you sir!:lmao:

I'm in with the enthusiasm - i love my Swanndri so if there was something a bit cheaper and as good I'd definately be in. I would prefer a full front opening as I like to be able to quickly vent the front without having to drop off rucksaks waterproofs etc. Good quality zip front woukld be perfect.
