Jacket harness insert thingy ma jig?

Last year there was some talk of one of our members who was making a jacket insert to allow your harness hook to come from inside. This allowed you to run your harness under your regular winter jacket. Can't for the life of me remember who or what it was called to see if I can get one this year. does this ring a bell for anyone?

Thanks

That is good. I will make sure to do it my self one of these days I am sure of it.

The insert idea is great. Thinking about making one for my jacket. Not for kiting though. The insert will allow my jacket to grow from a medium to a large when my belly gets too big after xmas dinner .. haha .. :lol:

If I can find time I'll make a tutorial of how I make them. So busy with kids and work when I have free time I wanna kite not sew!

Yeah I realized why I never ordered one last year when I was researching it then. I have the old style zipper on my jacket and can't use it until I get a newer jacket.:mad:

Or do some thrift store shopping. Sometimes you can salvage a zipper. I needed a left hand zip for my Loki jacket and found one in an old sleeping bag that was a match.
