Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Hyra Ladies Jacket - Sizing

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
If any of you good lady Snowheads own this brand and could give some guidance, that would be brilliant.

My daughter is a size 8 to 10, but often gets a 12 in a ski jacket, to allow for layering. She ordered an Atomic Small (as the Medium had sold out), on the off chance it would fit...and it was a fraction tight across the chest, so returned it.

She then ordered a Hyra in an Italian Size 44/Medium (UK 12). It was substantially smaller than the Small Atomic....so much so that she is now wondering if even a Large will be big enough.

My Question. Do Hyra Jackets run very small...and if so, by how much?

Many thanks for any insight.

very small. My wife, typically a 12, couldn't fit into a 14 and we had to go for an 18 to get a degree of comfort.

The type we looked at was stretchy, but the are very small sizing.

Yup - they run small, but mine has been very good so if you can get the sizing right, a good buy

Yup, that's what my daughter said, so I'm hoping the Large fits.

Not ideally.

She can (and did) wear it because it's stretchy - but would be better with the next size up. It is well made and warm, but layering needs to be thin, with a Gilet, as the arms are tight.

This is the Women's version though....so I have no experience if the Men's version is the same.

The ladies Hyra's are (or certainly were as looking above my info is 8 years old) quite a fitted shaped as in "in at the waist and out at the hips", my sons men's one was a fairly straight cut.
