I debated several down jackets before finally choosing this one, and I'm very satisfied. I have worn it this winter in Seattle, Denver, and Phoenix [damp cold and dry cold], a…

I bought this jacket on sale because I wasn't sure if it was really going to be worth $200. It is. Very nice fit. I ordered a large because I wear a 36DD, have large shoulders…

I wore this under a shell and over long underwear and a light fleece on a 10-degrees-at-the-lift day. Everything wicked beautifully, and I was instantly awed by whatever magi…

This jacket is amazing. Usually when snowboarding I wear a fleece under a shell and it is bulky. With this you have that same thing, but it does not feel as bulky but just a…

I bought this jacket to replace my old soft shell for ice climbing. I'm usually on the cold side, hence I decided to go with a jacket that had a little built- in insulation. I…

It's a good colour which I liked. However, I don't like the inner silken fleece liner. It looks different when I got it. I know I will never wear single with that silken fleec…

The first jacket I ordered was in retro pink I was very annoyed because it was nothing like the picture, I did an exchange and was told I would not be charged shipping because…

Very lightweight but also very warm. Guess in fancy terms, that means the warmth to weight ratio is outstanding but that sounds like math. Seriously, great jacket - extremel…

Unlike other Arcteryx, this is the relaxed fit one. I always wear their usual large; but Micon Large is equal to usual XL for "roomier fit" and for better movement as they cla…

Another fantastic Patagonia product! This jacket is super light, allows fluid movement and is very packable. It keeps the wind out and its water resistance holds out water qui…

I got this jacket in Tumeric. The color is absolutely beautiful, in my humble opinion. If the weather is 30F and above and you are moving its perfect. I'm just not convinced o…

We considered the usual suspects for kids jackets (L.L. B***, Land's ***, Colum****), but why should our kid be lumped into the rest of the boring kids in America? We bought…

I'm guilty of spoiling my little niece, Melissa. I gave this jacket it to her for her birthday. She is a doll and looks even sweeter in this jacket. Not only is it stylish,…

I love this jacket. After wearing it pretty much everyday in this year's mild northeast winter, I feel like I'm finally able to give some feedback. 1. Yes, it's warm. Stop…

I had one of these for about a year. I'm 6'2" and 200 pounds and the large was a comfortable fit. There was enough room under it for a 100 weight fleece if it got down to abou…

I wore this when I camped in Hell, MI last year (surprisingly cold-below freezing). It hit right above my hips. I'm a 36D and the medium fit perfect everywhere, even when I w…
