wantdoWomen's Hooded Packable Ultra Light Weight Short Down Jacket

Sizing was perfect, very comfortable. Used for a trip to Norway in October and kept me plenty warm under a rain jacket. Very easy to pack, compressed with no problems into both the included pouch and my packing cubes. Only comment is I would occasionally lose some of the filling but not much.

I live in the cool Pacific NW and got this for a trip to Alaska. Sadly it didn't arrive on time so I didn't have it. I got the largest size so I could wear layers under it including camisole, turtleneck, sweater and scarf. I do walks in the forest and it has kept me warm even when there was snow and the conditions were at 17 Farenheit which is way lower than usual. I LOVE that when I don't need it that it zips up into a tiny little bag. When I travel and the weather is variable I can easily pack it for camping, walking outdoors etc. and if I go on a plane it takes up little space so it will be lightweight and practical. I LOVE the bright color when here in the NW it is frequently grey from October through June! People complement me on it all the time.One thing is that it is NOT waterproof...I wear it anyway where there is the typical 'light' rain here and it gets wet but I"m not out on those days very long, just about 20 minutes for a walk so I stay dry under the jacket. Nicely, it DRYS quickly as well. About 30 years ago I got a down jacket at REI and I was a little concerned about whether this jacket would stand up to my outdoor lifestyle. I got it late in Summer and this is it's first year and it is TERRIFiC. I am very happy with it. So, if you want to be warm and have a 'GIrl Scout'/hiker outdoor mentality you will layer this jacket with a turtleneck and sweater if you'll be outdoors in snow or 20-40 degrees Farenheit weather. Actually I was surprised that I get HOT when I walk in this for about 20 minues outdoors and have to unzip the front. I had been worried that it wouldn't be 'warm' enough but it actually IS! I also wear it in the typical 40 something Farenheit weather with a short sleeved dress top if there are dressy event with a scarf and am nice and I am 'just right' temperature wise and not cold at all. I walk about 4 blocks in it to an event and it is so comfortable and soft.

For the price, this coat is pretty unbeatable. I bought it for a 10-day trip in Austria and Prague in late November/early December, and as it so happened, a sudden snowstorm hit while we were there, and the temps dropped as low as 10 degrees Fahrenheit and never got warmer than 36-40 degrees. It also snowed or icy rained almost the entire time, and we were walking on average about 6-9 hours out in the cold each day. I was apprehensive about the coat keeping me warm during all of that because of how lightweight it is, but to my surprise, it worked great with a thermal layer and a sweater underneath!Pros - lightweight, compresses into a packable bag, still keeps you warm and cozyCons - ran big and had to order twice to get the right size, NOT entirely waterproof (more like water resistant...after being out in the snow for hours, it eventually did start to feel damp, though I still didn't feel cold). I initially ordered the camel/bronzy color, and it did NOT come as advertised (was basically orange), but I swapped it for the green and liked it much better. Zipper quality could be better as you have to work with it sometimes, but overall, I'd say that this coat keeping me warm in the weather conditions I was just in has me sold on it!

This is my new favorite winter jacket. It’s warm, fits well and looks cute.

I bought this coat right before I left for Europe and I’m so glad I did. It was cold, windy, and raining, and this coat kept me so warm. It’s ultra light weight and it makes packing easy for those who travel. It’s so compact, I could shove it in my purse. It was definitely worth the purchase.

I LOVE THIS JACKET!I live in Orlando and do not often have need of a warm coat, but had to travel to Boston a few times this winter for work. It packs down tiny to fit in luggage, is extremely lightweight, soft and comfortable to wear, and kept me plenty warm in 30-some degree temps. I am pretty wimpy in the cold but I was quite comfortable in this coat. I wear a small or medium top normally, but I am tall and sometimes my arms and torso are too long for some clothing, so I ordered a medium and it fit perfectly. The sleeves were long enough and the jacket came about mid-hip on me.My daughter visited North Dakota with her grandmother this winter for a weekend, so I ordered this jacket for her too. She wears a 12 or 14, and a women's XS fit her nicely, a little extra growing room so hopefully it will fit her next year too, but overall a pretty good fit. She loves this jacket and mentioned to me several times how comfortable it is. She wore it to school a dozen times or so this winter as well.We both got another good use of our jackets visiting north Georgia in March. It was a very outdoorsy vacation and we wore them quite a bit.I did not have high hopes for the durability of these jackets, given the low price and somewhat thin-feeling fabric, but surprisingly not a single rip or tear after multiple uses - and my daughter is rough on clothes. Since it is now time to store them for next season, I just washed them both on gentle cycle and hung them to dry per the instructions. They looked a little crinkly after that so I put them in the dryer with no heat, and voila, they are back to their original condition. I'm not sure if these jackets would stand up to being an everyday wear coat, but for light to moderate use they are perfect.

Pros: The fit is very feminine and lightweight - it looks good on. It traveled well in a carry on and it kept me warm on a trip to Mt Rainier in late September.Cons: Unfortunately the feathers just keep coming out of the jacket and there is also some loose stitching. The quality could be better.Overall: I'll continue to wear it and hope that it doesn't unravel somewhere while I'm out.

Péssima qualidade e solta as plumas do interior do casaco

Fue un regalo para mi mamá... Y le quedó excelente... está muy contenta con su regalo...

At first I ordered the large but it was way too big so I got the medium and it fit just right - I usually wear petite sizes. I wore it hiking and walking around in the woods during a recent west coast trip. I would say it's good for fall/spring use and it's great because you can fold it down really compactly so it's a bonus for packing it in a carry on or backpack without adding weight or taking up much space. The sleeves ended up coming right to my wrists and the length was great as it fit just around my waste - not too long. I could wear layers underneath too and it wasn't too tight or too loose with just a tshirt. I felt warmer wearing it and the zipper doesn't seem cheaply made. The inside pockets are very useful as well as the two outer zipper pockets. I wore in light rain and it seemed to be water resistant and dried up very quickly. I'd recommend getting it for sure - the green is a nice forest green colour! Returning the larger package was easy and a quick substitution. If you're not sure the size, order two and return one.

The media could not be loaded. Me encanta, es súper calientita y delgada / ligera a la vez. Lo único que me llama la atención es que cada movimiento que hago, salen plumas no se si la mía salió defectuosa o así son todas.

I was sure this jacket was going to be returned. From the provided photos, I thought it would be puffier.Things I like:~Packs down small. You'd think there is no way it will go into that little bag. It does!~Fluffs up quickly.~Somewhat wind resistant.~Not too short, not too long.~Sleeves are a good length.~Main zipper doesn't snag but, the pocket ones seem to be finicky.Improvements I'd like to see:~Draw-string on the hood.~Draw-string on the hem.~More filling, please!~An inside chest pocket.This coat runs large which is new for this company; they usually run small. At the end of the day, I kept it and it now comes along when I travel. It is a light, small, surprisingly effective layer that can be used any time of year.
