Elvis8Atari Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I've seen this jacket before. I was wondering if anyone knows if this Jacket existed in Adult size. If anyone has one, I'm looking for one. http://cgi.ebay.com/VINTAGE-ATARI-YOUTH-SI...1QQcmdZViewItem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess Xlarge in mens size back in the 80's was for men around 180 pounds and less. I'm 238 and have no chance of even getting one of my arms in the silver Atari jacket i have.

A.J. Franzman Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 (edited) I have that jacket and the blue one and let me tell you that if your 190 pounds and bigger you might as well forget it. I guess Xlarge in mens size back in the 80's was for men around 180 pounds and less. I'm 238 and have no chance of even getting one of my arms in the silver Atari jacket i have. I have the navy blue version, size Adult Medium, which fits me perfectly -- I'm about 180 pounds and 5'8" (81.6 kg and 173 cm). What size does yours say it is? I think an Adult Large should fit someone up to about 200 lb., but no ideas about Adult XL or larger, if they even made any that big. Edited February 9, 2008 by A.J.

Ross PK Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Would anyone here go out wearing one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimo Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Would anyone here go out wearing one? not where I live, I think it may be detrimental to a healthy life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Montana Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 They would be cool as a collectors item, but as mimo said, could be hazardous for your health to wear outside Imagine wearing one, walking past a gang of hoodies, trying to be cool with your flared corduroy jeans on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fit that criteria of being less than 180.. care to sell the silver one? I'd certainly wear it, if only to embarrass the kids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindcircus Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Flashback city! I had a silver NASA jacket just like that in the 2nd grade. And YES, I would wear one of those Atari jackets today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Climber Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 I thought about tracking one down, I would wear it, I'm over 2 bills though so if what Pitbull says is correct then thats a bummer Maybe I will just sew a bunch of Activision patches on a cool jean jacket again like I did back in the 80's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Dogs Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Telegames advertised that jacket in there mailer years ago. I think there only size was small though or else I would have bought one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows, maybe my future kids will want to wear it....I doubt it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Albanese Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 I have the silver jacket ... got it on eBay after seeing a friend walk around at a concert (in 1998!) in a blue one. Mine is supposed to be a men's small, but yeah, it's small ... I can wear it most of the time though (but not when in ice cream rehab), and it's mint. The material seems like it's extremely flammable and before any igniting would stick to everything in sight. An awesome item, though. Goes great with the silver STAR-TREK: THE MOTION PICTURE hooded poncho I got for my son ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tremoloman2006 Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 yeah, I'm bumping an old thread... I was looking in flickr for some cool pictures and stumbled across a cool chick proudly wearing her Atari jacket out in public. I have to say it looks good on her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gfunk823 Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 anyone know if these jackets were actually warm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+orpheuswaking Posted October 27, 2011 Share Posted October 27, 2011 Not really, They are polyester with a very thin lining. more of a fall/spring jacket. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
