    DIY Jacket?

    I made a raglan sleeve Apex insulation zip up puffy last winter after I finished making my new sleeping bag. It was a learning experience but was not that difficult at all to create the pattern and execute it. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    DIY 3/4 Zip-Off Puffy Pant

    I used apex insulation for my jacket and robic 1.0 for the inner and outer shell since I wanted a synthetic but breathable jacket, if I need to block the wind then I toss on my rain jacket over the top.
