Women's Mid-Length Down Parka

I bought this coat for my wife as a Christmas present thinking that she'd probably end up sending it back. She's rather particular when it comes to her coats and I knew I was taking a chance going in. She loved it. She was initially hesitant about the rather bright, blue color, but as soon as the first 10F day rolled around, that didn't seem to matter as much anymore. The coat fits her like a dream. She's about 5' and 130ish lbs and even with a heavy winter sweater underneath this coat, she's quite comfortable (not that you'll really need a heavy sweater under this thing. To say it's warm would be an understatement. At least according to my way, anyway. She has a hard time not getting too hot when it's in he 30's outside! The construction and materials are of excellent quality, the faux fur trim is super-soft and looks great, and the numerous pockets are extra convenient. The only complaint she has, and others have already voiced it, is that the hood is pretty large and tends to fall forward obscuring her vision. When she wears a hat with a pom-pom on it, it helps, but the hood is still on the big side. Just be aware. Other than that, my wife loves this coat which means I'm happy.

Perfect fit and such an awesome color! My tour guide in Iceland was wearing this color (I wasn't sure of the brand) and as soon as I got back to the hotel I went on Amazon to find it. It was such a striking and beautiful color, she stood out so nicely against the Icelandic landscape. Super good quality for such a great price (the price has rose since my order) and fast shipping, I've gotten so many compliments and it's honestly my favorite jacket right now. It's warm and the pockets are deep. Two things though, I personally wasn't a huge fan of the patch on the side but it didn't bother me too much. It just kinda reminded me of Canada Goose. Other thing, I wasn't really sure about my size until I read the previous reviews, so I recommend others to do the same. Mine fits pretty well, small enough to still see my figure but big enough to layer. (FYI, I did buy a custom patch and iron it on.)

I live in the Chicagoland area and needed a new winter coat to help me survive the cold weather and, even though we have had only a few days below freezing so far, I'd say this coat is doing the job pretty well so far. I'm 5'6.5," 140 lbs, and a dress size 8. According to the size chart that's specific to this coat (not the generic Amazon size chart), my dress size put me at the upper end of a size small. In order to be on the safe size and potentially give myself a little more room in the jacket, I chose to go with a size medium. Overall, I'm satisfied with my choice in size, although I will say that the medium is a little less roomy than I thought. So much so that I'm relieved I didn't go with a size small. While the coat's size chart may make you think it runs a little large (a dress size 6-8 sounds more like a medium to me in general), it runs a little small if not true to size. So I'd see where you are on the size chart dress size-wise and consider going up a size if you don't want a snug-fitting coat. I have room enough in the jacket to wear a sweatshirt over my clothing, but I couldn't see myself wearing a ton of layers underneath. The coat is definitely not uncomfortably small for me, but if you're like me and have always had roomier winter coats, this will take a little getting used to. That being said, I doubt I'd need to wear a ton of layers underneath it. While I haven't worn the jacket extensively yet, it has pleasantly surprised me so far with how warm it is. I'm not sweltering in it like other reviewers (because I'm one of those people who is always cold) but, on my walks to and from work every day, my upper body is never cold. I haven't tested the "waterproofness" of the jacket, but I can definitely say that it's windproof. The coat is made out of a heavy-duty material and really takes the bite out of the wind. And the hood is a nice size that doesn't completely block your vision but also doesn't fall down easily. Aside from the coat being slightly more snug than I expected (but, again, not in a completely uncomfortable way that would make me think about returning it), my only other small complaint about the jacket is that I have a restricted range of motion while wearing it. Because the material is on the heavier/denser side, it doesn't allow me to move as freely as I'd like. It's difficult to put on or fix my winter hat once I have the coat on because I have a hard time lifting my arms over my head. And slinging my gym bag over my shoulder took a few attempts (both because of the slight stiffness of the material and because the hood got in the way). But I'm hoping that, over time, the material will relax a bit. All in all, I couldn't be happier with my purchase. I was a little wary buying a winter coat for myself without having tried it on first (because I normally have bad luck with internet sizing and a lot of reviews/questions weren't helpful in trying to determine my size), but this coat fit almost exactly how I thought it would. And for the price (and the style you get for that price), it's hard to beat.

This is an amazing jacket! This is the first review I’ve ever written on Amazon. The jacket is extremely warm beautiful color ( I got the blue ). I am 52 and 134 pounds I ordered the medium . It is perfect in length and the arms are perfect in length but there is a lot of room in the chest and stomach area but when wearing this I will be wearing a large sweater so I think it is smart to buy it your normal size. It is perfect in length and the arms are perfect in length but there is a lot of room in the chest and stomach area but when wearing this I will be wearing a large sweater so I think it is smart to buy it your normal size and here lately when it’s 2° outside who cares if it’s a little big !!! Again great jacket seems extremely well-made and would rival other winter coats that cost 200+ !!!
