I got the small fleece and absolutely swim in it. But it is lovely on those chilly days when the heat decides it doesn't want to come on.
I went with the XS (for AT4) and it fits me perfect. I would usually go for a small but luckily I had previously gotten a zip up sweatshirt while in Ireland that was an XS and I figured the sizing would be the same. My Sanctuary hoodie is a Large and I now swim in it (bought it about 50 pounds ago) but I still love wearing it around the house in the winter when it gets 'chilly' (as chilly as it can get here in SoCal).
you know, it's not a good idea for you to swim in a fleece hoodie. when they get wet, they are very heavy and will restrict your movement in water.
Antoa I don't think there was an option for an extra small fleece at at5, or I totally missed it! I just think it's crazy that I should be an extra small in anything. I guess they are unisex sizes and therefore sized toward men?
Of course it's a word. See? Right here in Websters. "Snark, Snarky, Snarkier." Ignore the fact that the ink's wet and it's in my handwriting.
Oh, and Eh-T, I tried to answer the question you sent me... but your inbox is full and it won't take any more PMs. You can ask Laurie for a copy of the message I sent her if you're feeling too contrary to make inbox space.

Yep, definitely Unisex (i.e. men's) - the only way I'd ever be considered XS! Strange that there wasn't that option for AT5. I just double checked and mine from AT4 is definitely an XS.
What I think is crazy is size 00! I get that some girls are naturally thin, but why must we have such vaninity sizing to necessitate a size 00!
Anyway, I am done being random. I think the food poisoning is still messing with my brain.

*hugs for food poisoning* That's the worst!
As for sizes-- vanity sizing is getting out of control. I've been the same size for years, and suddenly I have to buy a whole size or two smaller. That means a 2 or smaller. What do the really thin girls do if this trend keeps moving-- at least in the US. I don't know if it's as bad elsewhere.

The only Aussies I know in size 00 are babies aged 6-12 months.
Our sizes are much different over here. My AT4 jackets is an XL but I could have easily gone with L or even M but with the bigger size, I wrap it around and snuggle into it like a blankie. I took it camping with me recently and it was a blessing. Now I wear it to work but it is a wee bit on the big size...again, it's got planty of room to play in/with.
Hope you're feeling better soon antoa. *hugs*

Yep I am better, thanks. It was a mild case - just dizzy nauseous. My tummy is still a bit iffy, but I am not dizzy anymore. I suspect it was from one of the desserts that we had at work to celebrate Halloween since another guy went home with the same symptoms (though he seemed worse off than I was). I am glad I limited myself to just 2 bites of most of them. Not sure which one was the culprit.
As most here know I am a "glass half-full" kind of gal. I appreciate how blessed I am with wonderful family and friends and that I have many opportunities
that are not available to so many around the world, especially females. I think "my cup runneth over" describes many aspects of my life.

Glad you are feeling better.
On an on topic note (for a change) I recently received a notice from an air line about a seat sale. I did try to check dates for November 2012 but it is so far away the seat sale didn't apply! From the glass half-full view, however, we will soon be less than a year away.

I've always been too literal, I suppose. I've always been of the "there is water in the glass" camp.
Old joke: Optimist: The glass is half full. Pessimist: The glass is half empty. Engineer: The container is 50% too large.
Which airline? I need to buy tickets for next February as part of my university inspection tour.
Air Canada. You have to be signed up to get their e-mail notices. Not sure if those outside the country can sign up but go to their website to see. It is a good/bad thing. While it does notify you of seat sales, sometimes it just reminds you that you are too busy to go on holiday.
