“This is IT!!! End of a quest.”

“I'm thrilled. I have been on a quest for the perfect ski / winter jacket for a couple of years. I have down jackets for severe cold, and I have old shell-fleece combos for the rest of the time, and I've been holding out for an insulated ski jacket I really like. This is it, and I can hardly believe I really have it: waterproof, breathable, pit zips, powder skirt, inner cuffs on sleeves to protect wrists, fleece at chin/neck, handwarmer pockets, subtle feminine embroidery on one side (and I'm not a girly girl, but I love it). Color was my last and optional criterion, so the fact that I love the color is a bonus: striking yet sort of subtle, feminine without being snow-bunnyish. ONE IMPORTANT CAVEAT: This jacket runs really small, especially for a woman with any sort of bust or reasonably long arms. I had returned a medium and a large before an extra large showed up.”
