I am looking to replace my beloved Patagonia Houdini after many years of rugged use. The thing has just "worn out" and it is time to retire it. The simple solution is to buy a new one, however, Patagonia, in its wisdom and pursuit of corporate profits, has out-sourced production to yet another off shore country and the sizing of the new ones is beyond belief. I wear/wore a large. Today's large is big enough for any two humans to fit into, however today's medium is cut so small it is skin tight. That, and the "becoming more typical" crappy Patagonia zippers has me looking for something similar made by other manufacturers. Any and all suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks.
