There is a longer story behind this Bogner Jacket/kit. It was an auction item at the U.S. Ski & Snowboard Hall of Fame outing last year. There were no bids on it so I put a lowball starting bid on it and no else bid so I got it and the money went to a good cause. Say what you want about the perception of Bogner but
@KingGrump will attest, they make some of the best tecnical wears out there and yes, they do it with their own style which sometimes IS over the top.
Earlier this year we were in Utah for trade shows and I put the jacket in the closet after wearing it, at the end of the stay due to some technical issues with the S.S. SkiTalk we had to evacuate the unit in a haste and I ended up leaving the jacket in one of the closets (this is why I don't hang my stuff up, you can forget it). I didn't realize until we got back home. We contacted the renter and he said he would have his people look for it. We just said it was a blue jacket and not that it was a Bogner not knowing if they knew the value or not. HE came back a few days later and said they could not find it. I was thinking that the cleaning people found it and I started watching FB Market, CL and KSL.com to see if it showed up there. We did ask to check again and told him specifically where i left it, still no luck.
About a week later, we get a note from him that they did indeed find it and he would have to find a bot to ship it back to me that he would ship it back to me.
@Jim Kenney, this is where i reached out to you to see if you could get it for me. I ended up sending him a shipping label and it finally returned home.
So this is the second time I left the jacket somewhere, if it happens another time, three times a charm, it will be a sign to me that the universe does not want me to have nice things and I will have to either leave it where i left it or find a way to pay it forward.
