MARMOTWomen's Montreal Mid-Thigh Length Down Puffer Coat

I bought it on sale this summer so I can’t tell how warm or water repellent it is. It feels very warm and hopefully can endure the Pacific North West winter. I’m petite and a sorlid size XS on Columbia jackets. I got this in size S and it fits perfectly with only a t shirt. So I recommend to size up one to two sizes. Overall I’m happy with my purchase.

As others have noted I’m not too pleased with how thin the outer shell is. They really cheeped out but if you wear it in settings where rugged durability isn’t needed too much… it’s a very warm jacket. Seems to me it runs quite small for the size so don’t be surprised to go up at least one if not two sizes more than other brands. All in all glad to have it but did got on a pre-Christmas sale. It is very warm! I would look for a more rugged jacket next time but if I couldn’t find one for a similar price I would definitely buy again.

It is stuffed full of fluffy down, very warm, holding in all your body heat. This coat is perfectly acceptable for the frigid below zero temperatures and the bone chilling , violent winds that whip us about here in Chicago. The extra details that mean everything when you have them are worth the extra cost. For example, where this coat touches your neck, chin and chest it’s lined with a thick, soft, comfy, warm lining material. This lining extends to the front left and right panels of the coat, extending to the waist, then wraps around to the whole upper back chest area to the waist and down inside of 2 (outer) of the 4 zippered pockets. There is also a sturdy, soft matching cuff that keeps air from rushing up your arms while keeping in your needed body heat. This coat does not reach my knees but hits me at my mid upper thigh. The zippers are very good quality, will last over many years of machine washes and tumbles in the dryer. The fur ruff removes easily for washing and is just as easy to put back on. My only complaint is the outer material. It is thin and stains easily. I bought the green color and I have had to wash this coat already. While holding a bag of take out on my lap, grease bled through the brown paper bag onto the bottom of my coat. I quickly put some liquid detergent on the stained area, removed the ruff and machine washed and dried the coat immediately. Unfortunately, the outline of the grease stain is still visible. This is not what I expected in a $300.00 coat. I have a similar coat from Eddie Bauer (EB) that washes and dries beautifully because the outer material is a much thicker, sturdier better quality material. The down fp is only 500 in the EB coat and sadly not as warm as Marmot . The EB coat has all of the above features that are very important to me, excellent zippers, soft, velour like lining that is on the upper inside of the coat, sleeve cuffs that keep heat in, drafts out and a functional hood with removable ruff. If EB only offered a red, 800 fp down coat, I wouldn’t have looked elsewhere. For the most part, this is a good, warm coat and I will wear it. I initially ordered a size M but returned it for a L, it was tight in the bust area. When bringing it back for an exchange, I sang it’s praises to several people standing in the Amazon return line at Kohl’s. You can easily see the quality of the coat and quantity of the down. My opinion changed only after I washed the coat.

Pros:1. Seems pretty warm so far.2. Good quality materials.3. Interior fleece lining is cozy and wonderful.4. The hood is removable.5. Giant pockets, so if I store my gloves in there, you don't see weird unsightly lumps.Cons:1. The hood comes down to my nose, so I can't actually use it unless I'm standing still and don't have to see.2. It's shaped like the letter A, so it will look best on a flat-chested person. With the size that fit my top, it's a wide skirt at the bottom, which defeats the purpose of a knee-length coat because cold air has plenty of space to blow up your legs.3. I guess the point of a full-length zipper is it looks nice, but it sure is impractical and annoying to have to secure the zipper from knee-level. If you want to reach anything in your pants pockets you have to basically remove the entire coat. I preferred how my old wool coat had buttons, and at the very bottom, the 2 sides did not attach to each other. But I think all puffy coats are like this.

I purchased this jacket for visiting Yellowstone National Park in May when it was still snowing, averaging mid-40s during the day and low-30s at night. Never once did I feel cold and it was great against some minor wind too. I also love the silver-white color of the Glacier Grey!Sizing was also not an issue in arms, butt or chest for me - 5’4,” weigh, 127-129 lbs, 27 pant, B cup, balanced arm length to my torso. I have somewhat of an hourglass shape - broader shoulders and a rather large behind for my size - and felt zero strain or restrictions wearing this jacket. It moved comfortably. I can see how others might struggle with this jacket fitting, it honestly felt like it was made for me minus it being a little longer for my height than I would like. I believe this jacket is best suited for those between heights of 5-5’7” and weight 110-150 lbs, A-C cups, 24-29 pant. If you are larger in the chest, arms or waist/hips then this jacket probably won’t work for you.My only complaint was how it was shipped - the jacket was a complete nightmare upon arrival because of adhesive on the protective bag was open and got stuck to the entire right arm of the jacket. Someone had clearly opened and returned it, possibly had been returned a few times, because the bag was pretty beat up and the adhesive was covered in dirty lint/fuzz. When peeling it off the jacket, it left a horribly dark, sticky residue. We were leaving for our trip the next day and I needed this jacket, so I busted out the Goo Gone and sat for about 30 minutes scrapping the sticky stuff off with a cuticle pusher and then scrubbing at the last parts with stain remover. It came off without leaving any stains, but ever-so-slighty the technical weave of the jacket’s material was broken by rubbing it too hard with the metal cuticle tool. Needless to say, I shouldn’t have had to go about cleaning and repairing my own jacket, but I also didn’t care enough to return it since it was going to be worn outdoors in the elements.

Es una muy buena compra! Me encanto

Léger et chaud! C’est mon 2e manteau identique, l’autre ne me faisait plus mais je l’adorais. Je le recommande!

Leider fällt der Mantel zu gross aus. Ich hatte den Mantel schon einmal beim Otto.de in Größe L bestellt! Leider fielt er zu klein aus !!!! Ich war von der Qualilät und Leichtigkeit so begeistert, dass ich weiter überall gesucht habe und wurde endlich bei Amazon fundig. Nun habe ich der Mantel in XL bestellt. Nach 3 Wochen habe ich ihn endlich erhalten...ABER er fällt zuuuuu gross aus! Habe ich nicht daran gedacht, dasss wenn er aus USA kommt, dort die Größen anders ausfallen können.. Leider geht der Mantel zurück!

Do not leave the house in winter without this bad boy. Warmest most comfortable coat I have ever owned, with more pockets than you would ever need. Fits perfectly. I LOVE IT!!!

Me encantó! es de buena calidad, el corte hace bonita figura, muy caliente, no es pesada, únicamente pedir una talla arriba de la acostumbrada.
