Mountain Hardwear Nitrous Down Jacket - 800 Fill Power (For Women)

Very good price, and good quality. Only concern is about the down fill weight is a little bit less than expected.

I ordered large at first - it was too big and the upper arms looked extra big. So I exchanged to a medium, the body now fits right but the upper arms were still big. Looked like the Michelin arms. returned it for good this time.

I've been looking looking for a very thin down jacket for traveling, that would be packable and light, but would still take the chill off in cool weather. My arms always feel cold with just a vest. I can also wear this under my black waterproof jacket, since it's so crushable. I won't need to hassle with a bulky coat any longer. The reason I gave it only four stars is because I initially bought it in a large based on the size chart, but found it to be a bit bigger that I really wanted. I decided to order the medium which is my usual size (I'm 5'5" and weigh about 140 lbs). The medium turned out to be very small and too tight through the torso. I sent the medium back and kept the large. I can live with clothing that's roomy, but I can't stand tight clothing. For my purposes, I'm very happy with the purchase price and the color!

As another reviewer noted, the outer shell of this (even in the hot pink color!) is thin enough to reveal the shapes of the feathers within. It's a very odd look. Although the jacket fit well, I just couldn't appreciate the x-ray aspect of it, and sent it back. It seemed as though it would be plenty warm, but I can't speak to that as I only tried it on indoors.

This jacket runs big. I ordered a small but it fit like a medium.
