It sounds very much like the J ones you get on flights >9 hours these days. Thinner material, larges sizes (the J version only comes in two variants) and a somewhat strange neck (almost a hoodie but not quite). Not sure yet when my next F flight will be: with the late DXB/CPT rotation (EK770/771) now being operated by a 4 class frame, the urge to splash the extra amount is less. Maybe March or otherwise only Sept when I might want to take the earlier flight.
I too have still some old but unused F PJ’s ‘in stock’ even in the old ‘sleeve’ packaging. My missus reaction is similar to yours….
