Ah, but David, there is a company called Paul Petzoldt Wildnerness Equipment who will custom make a parka for you. Paul was a very large man and all of his clothing was very much oversize. A size Medium should work for you. ;-) Dave ----- Original Message ----- From: David Young To: leicareflex@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, December 15, 2004 11:20 AM Subject: [LRFlex] Re: Adventures at 32 Below...
