I am selling my westwinds antarctic smock in navy blue
I brought this smock about 3 years ago but have not used it in a long time, When I first got it I used to use it as my hiking jacket.
The smock has been washed about 2 times using grangers soap (as westwinds advise ). As it has been washed it has that faded look that ventile gets when it has been washed.
The jacket itself has no damage/repairs ect ect and will give many more years of service .
If your looking for a ventile jacket for sitting around the fire or just hanging around in the woods that can take some abuse then this is a good one for you

Westwinds size this smock as a medium but it is designed to have a lot of insulating layers underneath . I am normally a size large (42-44 inch chest) and this is a good fit for me with room for a couple of normal UK condition layers underneath . When I purchased this the Girl I spoke to at westwinds advised me to get a size smaller than my normal size as I was not using it to go to the north pole :) This was good advise

I would like only £50 posted as I think this is a fair reflection in price of how the jacket looks ( faded ) .

Now I really need to sell my old ventile!
I love a bargain!

You can dye the blue one easily if its not your colour , I went from green/beige to brown/tan using dylon from Wilkos (no affiliation, just a happy customer wearing brown ventile ;) )

Dylon do various shades of yellow. Their instructions tell you that normal colour combination rules apply, so, yes, it should work.
