After waiting almost three weeks my L4 windshirt arrived today. Size is great chest wise but is just too long in the body for me. So rather than send it back I thought I would put it on here to get my money back if you like. It cost just under £45 without shipping. I would be happy to sell for £40 inc of postage.
Its a cracking bit of kit, nice and soft but tough, camo pattern is good and not as in your face as some. Its got more of techincal feel to it and is more akin to outdoor kit than normal military kit I have owned. In fact patagonia make the kit with the same spec for the US army.
Here's a link to the large regular that I have just bought form the bay. Its from the same guy as this one I am selling.
