What customers say:

The ultralight down coat is praised for its warmth, lightweight design, and water/wind resistance. Customers highlight its versatility, noting it keeps them comfortable in a wide range of temperatures without feeling bulky or heavy. The coat features a well-designed hood, adjustable cuffs, and deep pockets, with thoughtful details like a double zipper and storm flap.

Overall, this appears to be a highly functional and practical winter coat that provides reliable warmth without sacrificing mobility or comfort.

Disappointed in Quality
Weight: 140-150 lbs
Height: 5'9"
Size Purchased: Small
Fit: True to size
My only issue with this jacket was the zipper and Velcro flap. From the first time I tried to unzip to try it on, I found the plastic zipper was a bit stuck and difficult to unzip.

I bought this a month ago. I like it. It doesn’t replace my favorite LLbean jacket that I’ve had for almost 10 years! Quality isn’t the same. Zipper gets caught on the fabric.
