not the most flattering fit By momoftwo from Sandpoint, ID on 04/14/2008 Pros: Durable, Lightweight, Warm Best Uses: Cold Weather, Extreme Conditions, Hiking and Camping Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I purchased this jacket as well as the Go-Lite Cayenne jacket, for around-town, cold-weather wear. This is not a stylish piece like the Go-Lite. It is puffier, with an unflattering, sloping cut through the shoulders. Would be great for cold-weather camping/backpacking, etc, where style is not an issue at all. This is definitely a more serious, technical piece.
By ski bum from Seattle, Washington on 04/02/2008 Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I haven't used the jacket yet - but I intend to use it for skiing in February & March. It feels very light & nice.
too short in torso and arms By n from denver, co on 03/19/2008 Pros: Breathable, Durable, Lightweight, Warm Best Uses: Casual Wear, Cold Weather Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels too short Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I have a longer torso, am about 5'8 so it was pretty short on me. But it might be great for a shorter person.
By Nora from Washington DC on 03/03/2008 Best Uses: Casual Wear, Cold Weather, Hiking and Camping Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I'm normally a true medium, women's 8-10. Even though reviews said the jacket ran small, I ordered it in my usual medium. It doesn't feel too small on me and the sleeve length is OK (I would like them a little longer, but they're not noticeably short on me). It fits well. It might be too snug if I were wearing a bulky sweater underneath, but I'm planning to use it layered under a parka shell, so the snuggish fit is a plus for me. It arrived on a cold winter day and after I put it on, I went straight out to do some yard work. It was plenty warm all by itself and so light I barely noticed I was wearing it. Excellent quality for the price.
By valgalrunning from Chapel Hill, NC on 02/27/2008 Pros: Breathable, Lightweight, pretty color (blue), Warm Cons: Inadequate Protection Best Uses: Casual Wear, Cold Weather, Hiking and Camping, Wet Weather Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels too short Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The collar could be higher also the sleeves seem a bit short and on me, the sleeves are often too long. Seems like it should be bulkier but haven't tried it out in temps lower than ~35 F so can't say whether it would still keep you warm at temps below freezing.Zipper kind of flimsy. [...]Feels cozy when you put it on. The medium blue is very pretty.
great jacket, great price By rivermama from grants pass, oregon on 01/13/2008 Pros: Breathable, Lightweight, Warm Best Uses: Casual Wear, Cold Weather, Hiking and Camping Describe Yourself: Professional Guide Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels too short Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Nicely made down jacket. Sleeve length a bit short for me, and wrists feel a bit exposed when moving around. The wrist bands are elastic and not adjustable. Haven't put it through anything extreme, but seems pretty cozy. I'm really enjoying it.
Great!, but sleeves are too short By Syl from Athens,Ga on 01/04/2008 Pros: Breathable, Lightweight, Warm Best Uses: Casual Wear, Cold Weather Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels too short Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I really like the look of this jacket, it is not too bulky, and it looks really sporty. I have received many complements. I am 5 ft. 9 and I have extremely long arms so its no wonder the arms are a little short for me, but everything else fit wonderfully, so I did not return it. Ultimately, for the price you will not find anything better.
By Dog Walker from MN on 01/03/2008 Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This coat is lightweight, not bulky and very warm. My daughter uses it for walking the dog in MN where she needs to stay toasty warm. She is a petite and it fits her well. It's a little short waisted I suspect for some people.

By Mary from Spearfish, SD on 01/02/2008 Best Uses: Casual Wear, Cold Weather Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Jacket was a gift for my daughter. She liked it very much. She is very slim. I think the jacket might run a little small for the more average size body.
