Hello everyone,
First off, thanks for the last bit o' sleeping bag advice. I ended up with a super sweet WM ultralight! Now if this rain/sleet/snow in Wisconsin would relent I might be able to use it!
On to the next question: with a 36" sleeve and slim build what is comparable Patagonia,s r4 weight fleece
I need a replacement fleece for my 10 year old eddie bauer (zipper is starting to go) and I'm not finding much in the tall / slim sizes.
Thanks!
Jason

Since they are local and make everything in Leadville I would contact them about making a custom size for you. Very reasonable prices.

Thanks for the suggestion. Very reasonable price for the stock option. I'll have to give them a shout.
