Poster: A snowHead
|
If there are any kind Snowheads that own, or have owned, a Jacket from Fischer - that could comment on:
1. True to size?
2. Are as good quality as they look from a photograph?
All comments appreciated - especially from the good Ladies out there.

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

Mrs M has a Fischer XC jacket and it is very good, no idea about the sizing though.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I have a Fischer ski jacket, though it's a mens one. I find my broad shoulders are better suited to men's sizing! It's a great jacket. Warm, windproof and good pockets. I love it

Thank you.
Do you think it's true to size?

I would say it's on the small side as many clothes for the European market are

We'll soon find out, as a size 12 ordered - Free postage and free returns, so nothing to lose.

Yup, that's where she got it.
It's possible that TK Maxx has extra stock, due to last season not happening.

In case it's of benefit to anyone else...
Unfortunately - you have been proved correct.
She went for a UK12, which should in theory be a size bigger than she would normally get for normal use. It is the same size as the Hyra (L), but with less insulation - which is a little small, especially in the sleeves, which are narrow. It is being returned.
She would need at least one size up, maybe two.

Hope she gets one that suits as I really do love the jacket I have. Great quality.
