Looking for a cheap jacket. Some crieria making it hard for me to find anything.

Must not be black or flourescent yellow/orange.
Long arms (current Altura jacket is too short).
<£65
Good slim fit.
Not bothered about features or breathability really. If it is warmer I wear a windproof/gillet and get damp so I will only be wearing it when it is very cold.

The dhb eq2.5 seems the best that I've seen but it is currently out of stock in my size. Anything else around?

5'10L large altura. It is baggy around the boddy but when I extend my arms it is about 2" too short.

Very good, i find the arms long enough. I'm just over 6' and size large in altura/craft. There's also a green one on that site too.
