Berghaus Fleece jacket for XS men or teenagers approx age 14 £12 plus P+P

I bought this at a higher price :mad: before xmas for my son who is 14, he's never had it off his back, lovely quality and really warm. 6% through quidco at bargain crazy...as far as I know there are no working codes at the moment, the 17.5% definately doesn't.......

    Jacket is in the wash as we speak will whip it out and measure when finished should be soon.
    my son is approx 5ft5 and quite thin so is baggy on him, i'm 5ft7 and it fitted me ok but I'm a 16 so was a bit tight but not too much.

    Ok, i have measured it....lying flat on floor measring across the chest and front only is approx 20.5 (41 inch chest)....From armpit to the bottom of sleeve is 22 inches quite long and the length including the stand up collar is 24.5 but a couple of inches longer at the back.
    I would say this could also fit a ladies size large 12 to medium 14 if over 5 ft 6 or with longish arms?!!!...lol

    Thanks, will order one, my son is 5'7" and very thin so sounds like it should fit him.

    Remember this is really a lining for a coat and will provide little warmth as an outer shell. You get what you pay for with fleece jackets.But at this price a bargain !

    I know berghaus is a berghaus, but I just got a fleece from daleswear
    It's a North Cape microfleece, with a full length zip, & 3 pockets
    You try finding a light microfleece with a full zip!!
    I bought the same one lastyear but left it in thailand so I ordered another.
    On the website they were £24 plus p+p, but I phoned and they said 2 fo £30, and they had all sizes
    Also I love the coolmax long sleeve top only £6, but no mediums.
