I'd love to lengthen the arms on my outdry jacket. Columbia can't help
If anyone has binned it in their jacket and is about to get rid please let me know!

assuming its too short for you what about some diving equipment end seals for dry suits?
think they are called drysuit wrist cuff and you get long ones iirc [ latex or silicone and neoprene as well]
The boot ones are excellent for stopping the rain dripping into your boot
failing that use your own hood
EDIT: here for example

Yeah, too short
I quite like having a hood, though it's a good idea
Dry suit cuffs sounds a good idea, might be a bit tight though?
Just need then a few inches longer, but don't want to order a bigger chest size as it'll be massive on me

they are tight but not uncomfortably so - though I wear the leg ones - are marigolds tight enough you could try with them first ?
Agree those jackets are odd sizes - the small is pretty tight on me at the waist and not at all at the chest - in use they are superb though

good find and look like they will end up cheap enough to be worth a punt
