Reviewed by HStephen from Rockies, baby! on Tuesday, February 05, 2013I recv'd this jacket last week as a replacement for a defefective Columbia Lezoosh jacket( zipper teeth pulled out at the neck). I wore THF Pelosi not 24 hours(to and from work in Denver, hardly taxing on EXTREME gear)and the the hem drawstring clasp broke. I am going to try this jacket again. STP has been absolutely excellent re: customer service, I think the aforementioned defects were flukes.So far, I've got a week's worth of wearing the the Pelosi, and it nice. * Remember, it's a technical shell, and should be used as such - layering is essential... I'll post an update...

Reviewed by Danoindenver from Denver, CO on Wednesday, January 30, 2013As in my headline my Mountain Lyte needs replacement. I can see where North Face saved money in this design. Stamped logo, stamped "Summet Series, mimal labeling etc. They replaced the Gortes with I rhink their own propritary system. I have yet to wear it as I have other alternatives for the cold weather as it is still winter. I am generally pleased But time will tell.

Reviewed by Soccer Ref from Fairfax, VA on Saturday, January 12, 2013It can be hard to zip because of the fine teeth. However, when zipped there is NO air leakage past the zipper.

Reviewed by Crebbinator from Whidbey Island, WA on Wednesday, August 29, 2012OK, so size matters. I'm 5'10" 185# and I got a large. It fits fine over the several layers I have for alpine climbing and hiking. It is also fine as a single shell. Arm length is perfect for me. My shirt size sleeve length is 33" If you want a trim fit, and don't plan on wearing it over layers, then a person my size may want a medium. (Unless you have long arms) I have not tested the performance yet, but you can research that online and see this coat does what it is designed to do.
