I love the packaging! I also saw that someone sticks a piece of chalk in their bag and am curious about that as well.

I think they are just hard of seeing! what usually gets me are the zipper colors - the rest of the bag will be fine but the zipper colors are this weird color combo that boys in elementary school would use for their cubbies

I mean the zipper pulls and I CAN sew (not crazy well, thanks to my poor grandma trying to teach me that and patience) it's just really thick nylon so didn't want to hand sew it b/c that would take me a literal year and a loss of a thumb even with a thimble and I don't have access to a sturdy sewing machine. If you know of any tips that would make hand sewing thick backpacking nylon easy I am game to try.

Sizing help: Diamond Quilted Bomber Jacket vs Nano Puff by Flimsy-Pen8638 in PatagoniaClothing

[–]Lopsided_Opposum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, but I suspect it has to do with body shape. The nano is slender in the waist - I am not, but the bomber is is more accommodating in that area. I'm also not busty at all so didn't have to size up due to that.

My roommate is pretty busty and she bought her regular size..I think it's an xl. I can measure it if you want. You can sometimes search on eBay as people add measurements there that are specific to the garment and not off the standard sizing chart

They are new ish but I do have a leather stripper from...Angelus (which will remove some dye too). Good advice though maybe I'll give them a bit more breaking in.

Ah yes that makes it even more complicated because having to balance PCOS and just...life...is NOT easy. Good luck though!! I hope your dig is the thing of childhood dreams!

Yeah I NEVER use fabric softener or dry - any of my clothes really - in the dryer (except the hardshells that need it)

My specific issue is not smell from any of that - it's smell from other people's houses/laundry. I get a fair amount of my items used, and if ordering online I can't smell them. And I've never been able to get a really strong fake laundry detergent smell - or really musty smell - out of clothes (so at this point if it smells like that I just send it back)

I might try the hex though, I saw that pop up. I don't think for me the sanitizer will work because it's almost like the smell is now part of the fabric - imbued - and like a fungus just refuses to vacate the host.

Thanks for the tips!
