My wife bought one of the Chinese Northface ripoffs a couple years back. It barely lasted a winter before zippers and seams started falling apart.

It's just a jacket made out of material. There's no trade secrets involved. |

I heard the sizes run small, how's the XL compare to other XL's you have...or did you up size?

The Chinese cannot innovate, but they make some nice copies.

I usually wear a L in most brands but have a long torso/arms so Large is sometimes short in the midsection on me. I upsized this to an XL and it fits pretty good. I also have an XL 5.11 jacket and it fits like that. |

How long did it take to get there? I ordered it October 12 and it got here yesterday. i ordred one from another ebay seller on the 10/17 and am waiting for it to show up. the Chinese PO link they sent does not show anything. |

It is probably not counterfeit; I can't imagine a knock-off Under Armour jacket. It is most likely stolen out of the factory by a worker and sold on the black market.

My Arc'teryx jacket is laughing at you. View Quote My wallet is laughing at you. I'm not an arctic explorer, I don't need a $500 jacket. For when I would wear this here in Ohio, I have no doubt I can stay warm layering this over a thermal shirt. 90% of the time I am outside in the winter I am working here on the farm and wearing bibs and a Carhartt. The other times I am snowboarding and have a Spyder jacket for that that works fine. |

View Quote Sometimes the factory managers run a "third shift". I have heard of it happening with shoes. They run the normal shifts and move their product, then they come in after hours and make some extra units on the companies dime for material. Then move them super cheap to local sellers, and then we find them on ebay and aliexpress. |

Yeah, I'm gonna need a link for that. http://www.ebay.com/itm/331323064653?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&var=540519306971&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT I am 6'1" 190 and ordered an XL and it fits perfectly. Be willing to take some measurements? e.g. armpit to wrist length, collar to bottom hem of back, etc.? |

These are pretty slick ... http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NzAwWDcwMA==/z/0NoAAMXQlgtSynMr/$_12.JPG View Quote Dammit... too late. I was seriously considering going as a "rent boy"/My Private Idaho for Halloween. I'd have to have ordered it in the beginning of September for it to have gotten here in time though. |

The UA stuff sold in the states are made all over the place. The ARCOM hats sold here are made in China.

I went with the green even though I have too many jackets as it is.

I see the ARFCOM fatty brigade bought up all the XL and XXL sizes.

Does it smell like a harbor freight store?

I see the ARFCOM fatty brigade bought up all the XL and XXL sizes. View Quote As comical and unbelievable as it sounds, some people are 6'+ with large frames, broad shoulders and aren't fatties. I also purposely bought a size larger than I normally wear since it's coming from China. I can pick 3 different brands of jeans in a store, made in 3 different countries that are all the same size and one will be loose, the other tight and the last one will be just right like Goldilocks & the 3 bears. |
