Snugpak sasquatch jacket

As above for sale, in excellent condition..reason for sale its just too big for me.
If your sat about still on a river bank for hours in the middle of winter, no matter how cold the British weather can go this is an amazing Jacket.
I'm a 44 chest and this would suit a 48inch plus chest, underarm to underarm its 26inch measured.
I have bought the SJ9 jacket which is slightly less insulation and I get by with fleece baselayer, that's all. This jacket will be the same, if not warmer.
The camo is great, some people never even notice you, great if you want a quiet day on your own...

Looking for £60 delivered.

Here's the details;
The Snugpak Sasquatch jacket is praised for being extremely warm and windproof, with a good warmth-to-weight ratio. However, it is not waterproof and can absorb water, which makes it take a long time to dry. Customers report that the sizing is often generous, with many recommending going down a size for a better fit. The jacket is also bulky and best for activities with minimal movement, like sitting or standing in cold weather.

Pros
  • Very warm: Provides excellent insulation and is great for keeping warm in freezing temperatures, especially when stationary.
  • Lightweight: Despite its warmth, it is relatively lightweight and easy to carry.
  • Windproof: Effectively blocks wind to keep you comfortable.
  • Practical features: Includes a fully adjustable hood, adjustable drawcord at the hem, and multiple pockets (two external zipped, two large internal mesh, and one internal zipped wallet pocket).

Cons
  • Not waterproof: The outer material is not waterproof, and the jacket can become saturated with water, making it very slow to dry out.
  • Bulky: It is bulky and not ideal for highly active pursuits, though it's designed to fit over other layers or jackets.
  • Sizing: It runs large, so many customers recommend sizing down for a more fitted feel.

Who is it for?
  • Individuals who need maximum warmth for stationary activities like fishing, shooting, or camping in very cold conditions.
  • People who are willing to sacrifice waterproofing for warmth and wind protection.

I'd say its a xxl, I'm a 44 chest and its far too big for me.
I'd say if your a biggish bloke it will easily fit you....
I measured it tight across the armpits and got 26 inch, which imo if your 46 to maybe 50 chest it would be perfect obs 48 as a happy medium..
