Akita Seconds
Before we were Alpkit we lived off the sale rails in the outdoor shops, looking out for imperfect kit that needed a home and that we knew would still keep us warm.
These Akitas are far from perfect, but they’re the kind of thing we’d have looked out for back in the day. So we’re giving them the opportunity keep you warm in the mountains, which we're sure is what all fleece jackets dream of.
These fleeces use the same stretchy, wind resistant fabric as our regular Akitas. They’re completely fit for purpose but the stitching is broken in places so they didn’t meet our rigorous standards of quality control.
These fleeces are still covered by our 123 day returns policy, but are exempt from our Alpine Bond warranty.

How to Measure
This size chart indicates the body measurements our garments are designed to fit. Measure yourself as described below, and use the size chart to find your size:Chest - Measure around your chest at the widest part. The tape measure should pass under your arms, and be level from front to back.
Waist - Measure around your waist at the narrowest part.
Hips - Standing with your feet together, measure around your hips at the widest part.
Sleeve - With your arms relaxed by your side, tilt your head down and ask a friend to measure from the bone at the base of your neck, over your shoulder and down your arm to the fold at your wrist.
