Can you take one of the men's size L? Or did they not have enough?

Logos are a piece of cake to remove. I have a bunch of high quality Carharrt stuff that I de-logoed when I worked for a big builder. You'd never know it was customized.

I agree with everyone else that this was an admin error. But at our company we did have one employee left out of getting a company shirt because he needed a 5XL and the supplier only went up to 3XL. I felt badly but I think he expected it, or at least recognized it was within the realm of possibility.

The size of the company shouldn’t have anything to do with the sizes they ordered. Patagonia doesn’t have a standard set of sizes they offer with corporate orders that is more limited for small orders. Someone chose those sizes.

I would just email admin and say like, the new jackets look great! I’m a size (whatever), let me know if you need any other info to order my jacket, thanks!

If those who were left out are all larger sized individuals, I would be very concerned. What size are you OP?

I've ordered custom swag before and always gathered sizing beforehand and ordered the exact sizes of what we need, including under 50 qty.
That's really sh*tty for you.

Patagonia is nice but anything w/ a company logo is trashy/tacky so no big loss. So if both the down jacket and fleece had logos, consider that they did you a favor.

You shouldn't get people clothes unless you're willing to get their size. There are so many other options for corporate gifts.

I'm guessing you are a women's XS and nothing fit. Been there. It sucks, but no one cares about size inclusivity on that end of the range. They'll say "that's a good problem to have" and move one.

You just have to suck it up.

Yes, sounds like admin oversight. Were there enough for every person (just not in the right size)? I would honestly ask the admin how to get the jacket in an appropriate size. My company likes to give out swag and then do a group picture of everyone wearing the item and I'm always anxious that there will be no option big enough for me (plus sized).

They didn't get anything or you got it but it doesn't fit?

If the former, that's not right; if the latter then that's fine - just give it to someone you know who it would fit.

Sounds like an admin error, not an intended oversight

Our company had Fall gala that was a big, fancy party- raw bar, open bar, shuttles home, office closed the next day, etc. It included a swag bag for everybody based on our stellar year. Among the very generous things in the bag were customized, logoed, Patagonia down jackets and a customized Patagonia fleece. Because we are a smallish company (40 people) they only ordered the jackets in Mens medium and large and Womens small and medium, which means 5 of us got nothing.

That's weird, right?
