Which should I keep? help! I need to get rid of 3to charity shop!

1- perfect fit and very snug
2- perfect for camping, light weight, easy to pack, but warm ish and can double as a blanket
3- lovely colour and many functional pockets! found second hand - does not fit but is to inspire me to lose 2 stone!
4- Does not suit me much, but is potentially the only one I could lend to an adult daughter or son as it is the only "cool" one - if they every get caught here in bad weather without a coat
5- personalised with my name from previous work place - also a good camping coat
6- Bright and colourful with reflective bits, waterproof. Good for dark mornings. But actually not very comfortable

Which shall I keep!?

Please help! horder in urgent need of more space

Get rid of 3,4and 6. You know it makes sense 😁

Get rid of 3 as it doesn't fit. 4 they are adults and responsible for their own. 5 as you already have no 2 for camping.

Keep all, put some in the boot of a car 😁

I’ve given up j keeping stuff that doesn’t fit. It’s freed up a lot of space and is very liberating. If I lose weight I’ll buy something new.

also give the ‘+cool coats to the kids or charity. How often do you camp
?

Keep 1 for wearing, 5 for camping. The rest can go. Don't keep things "just in case"!
