Exceptionally warm, and packed small. Purposes bought for a trip hiking glaciers in AK and it got the job done.

Surprising
Very light weight. Packing compressed it a lot and it took a couple days for it to expand out. My first time wearing it was in 30 degrees and it kept me very warm. I am 5'6" and a large was a good fit for me, especially for arm length. I am a little concerned about longevity because of how light weight it is, but time will tell on that. Material and stitching are top notch and the jacket is very comfortable to wear. I HATE the feeling of gortex and this has more of silky feel inside and out, which is perfect. For a general use winter jacket this is perfect.

Always warm in any temp
This coat is so light, yet is always the perfect temperature from -5C to -35C you just feel cozy.

Comfortable but has now blown apart
All the features are fantastic, long-term durability is not - maybe thats why its called a hoodie? I am into year 4 and the material has completely blown apart, not just at the seams but literally all the material. I used this daily and worked it pretty hard here in Northern BC. Overall, pretty happy with it, just wish it lasted longer!

Extremely warm and comfortable. Used it hiking and backpacking in Alaska with no problems. Also looks good enough to use during cold days where you just want to wear 1 layer.

Lightweight and high loft. Finally got to test it in some 20 degree weather with moderate (25mph) winds - very warm!

Hood needs mods
Have had this for a year. It's a really good coat and has kept me comfortable for hours outside in downtown Toronto in 10F wind chill. Only issue is the hood; it has no snaps / velcro to secure the neck area, so when you are facing the wind, the hood will inflate like a balloon as it scoops up the wind. I got a strap that I put around my neck that holds it shut.

Great for the price, cuffs
Love the coat. At 5'11" 148 lbs the small is great and has room to layer. Only complaint is the cuff. My wife got the same coat and the cuffs on the women's coat are different and far superior! The men's cuff is a basic elastic ring. The women's has a proper cuff a few inches wide that is elastic and soft fabric. I'm using the coat for casual use and the occasional ski/snowboard day.

The jacket looks fine, fits fine and is comfortable but my score represents its warmth. It’s simply not warm enough and if I could return it I would.
