By outdoorsy gal from upstate, ny on 02/07/2009 Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a great coat andincredibly warm. It has all these pockets and practicality to it and an awesome telescoping hood for severe winds. You have to know that you need this stuff orwill use it, because ifnot then it might not be worth it to you, but if your looking for warmth and lots of down and an awesome hood with a coat that has tons of pocket storage..then this is the coatfor you. I found it true to size. I take a L usually and it was fine.
You could live in this... By M in MT from Bozeman, Montana on 02/05/2009 Pros: Beefy, Bombproof, Burly Best Uses: Cold Weather, Extreme Conditions Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The Resolute is seriously the best heavy-duty parka I've ever seen. The workmanship (stitching, pocket placement, materials) is second to none, and it is truly a piece of gear more than it is a piece of clothing.
All I could do was sob (on the inside, of course) when the XL I ordered turned out to be too big. I wear a 46 sportcoat, and waver between L and XL in various brands, depending upon the cut. In the Resolute, I am certainly no bigger than a L - so here I wait for a L to pop up on my computer screen.
If you buy one of these parkas, plan on having it to hand down to your grandkids. Timeless functional styling will make this one useful nearly forever. Depsite Global Warming (or Climate Change) this coat will always have a place somewhere in the world.

My wife borrowed it recently to go out during a small snow storm late one evening and came back enthusing about how warm and comfy the jacket is - I may have to buy another one!

By goose downlover from upstate ny on 01/28/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Durable Best Uses: Cold Weather, Extreme Conditions Describe Yourself: Casual Adventurer Chest Size: Feels true to size Sleeve Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This is a gorgeous coat. It is extremely warm and has loads and loads of pockets inside and out for carrying stuff. It has a lovely internal drawstring to tighten. I had read it ran large, but I found it true to size. I always take a large and so be it! The hood is awesome. It is extremely large but it can be adapted down to fit your size of head with pull cords. The fur on it is luxurious, as well as the gorgeous soft fake fur on the inner rim of the hood. The hood is really meant to help you stay protected with extreme winds and it does the trick like nothing else. It is a gorgeously made coat. I do feel, as someone else said, you have had to have had or tried many other down coats and their subsequent features to truly be able to appreciate this coat. If this is your first coat, I am not sure you would appreciate it. It also manages to stay far lighter than a comparable knock off without all of the detail. I think the down is of such quality that they can use less to get the same warmth ratio. It is amazingly warm. I actually sweat in it in upstate ny, with just a work shirt on underneath. If you want unparallel warmth and total function to do stuff this is the coat for you. If your worrying about style v. functionality then I'm not so sure. I do find it has a style of it's own, harking to retro, but others would probably say no.
