Yes ...... I take all "sizing guides" as jokes ... lol. Since I live in a place with few retail shops, let alone what I'd call "good ones" ... I rely on mail ordering . When I am interested in something, I call the manufacturer and ask for "garment measurements " . These are the actual physical measurements .
That said .... I do know Patagonia well also. And yes .... the great fit and sizing of the 70's, 80's and early 90's is out the window. I don't know who is running the company today ... but it is nowhere near the same. They used to make the coolest cotton shirts and sweatshirts . I even found one brand new I had stored away recently, from 1989 ! I still have many of the printed catalogs from that time, my sister worked for a Patagonai outlet store and she'd send us stuff . One shirt that has not changed is the cotton Polo. I found a NOS one of those too(from 1989), in a wonderful Raspberry color even ! When I bought some recently I was overjoyed that they were exactly the same cut ! So they've not completely lost their way ... lol. The Snap-T's ... yeah ...... a blanket with arms .... lol. Thankfully though, other brands have caught up with them in the quality of the fleece, so I choose other brands. Their lifetime warranty though, is by far the best of anyone in existence and the model of which all are measured against. As far as bike fit , retail is always changing ... but in the custom steel world time can stand still if you wish ! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
