Rain wear in plus size

I rarely miss an opportunity to plug The Packa.  His sizing is pretty generous and the pit zips are huge.  I’m a big guy (6 feet tall and 270 lbs) and the XL is really roomy for me.  As long as your wife isn’t buying a rain shell to make a fashion statement (the Packa is decidedly not the most attractive garment) it might be a good option.

Thank you…I will check it out. Sounds like it could work

Kevin,

I too am a big dude.  I realize there are other threads on this but what material did you go with and do you feel that it ventilates well enough to skip the eVent option?

Joe, did you try the PreCip in Men’s XXL?

Ian – I’m a bit of a Packa junkie…I have three!

• A medium in Sil-nylon
• An XL in eVent
• A custom XL in WPB Cuben

The medium fits me but just barely.  PM me with your address and I’ll ship you the medium and the eVent jacket to try.  You’ll only be out the cost of return shipping and I won’t be needing them for a couple of months at the earliest.

Great idea to try the mens XXL….I am going to take her to REI (after the storm in the Northeast) so she can try some on.

Thanks to everyone for their help

Joe

That’s an unbelievably kind offer Kevin.
