Marmot Montreal Down Coat - Women's

Got the coat in "moonstruck" which is a super light grey/off white color that is awesome in person. It looks straight white in the photo, but it actually has a little grey hue that I love. It's super warm - the fleece lining and sleeves help a ton. All hood elements are removable, but they lay flat and don't get in your way when you aren't using the hood, so it's good either way. Runs very true to size so if you are up in the air, opt for the larger size. In the North Face similar style, I would probably get the XS, but I ordered this in S and it fits perfectly. The length is good too - I'm only 5'1" and it hits at the mid-thigh so it doesn't look like I'm wearing a dress. Highly recommend this coat!

What a BEAUTIFUL COLOR (violet), and when you put it on, instantly, it's so soft and warm; feels like you're wearing your favorite comforter, and you don't want to get out of it. EXCELLENT QUALITY MATERIALS. And surprisingly, the way it's constructed, it's flgure flattering! Heads and shoulders above most coats out there. Not only functional, but beautiful too; hard to find this combo. Runs a little narrower than other brands of same size.

Pros: Very warm throughout body, sleeves, and hood; long sleeves with inner cuffs keep cold out; fleece inner lining keeps back warm; high collar covers chin, and faux fur around hood holds warmth around face; dark olive color OK; reasonably flattering design. I disagree with the reviewer who criticized the faux fur, doesn't seem any different from what I've seen on other coats.

Cons: Sizing! I always wear a size small (5'6", 115 lbs), but this coat in the small fit too tight at armholes and chest. The small was otherwise just about right for me, although snug; sleeve length was very good for my long arms. Had to buy the medium to get enough room in the armholes. But the medium-size sleeves and coat length are a bit much for me, giving a bit of a baggy look, almost as if wearing a man's coat.

This is my second Marmot down coat, and they've been godsends in Montreal and Boston winters. Marmot just needs to get women's sizing right! Otherwise -- a great coat.

I got this jacket for commuting this winter waiting for the train. The length is perfect so you don't feel too bulky but long enough to be really warm, which is what sold me. I don't think the fake fur is that bad, since I don't think fur really looks that spectacular anyways. It actually looks more like real fur than other jackets I have seen. The fleece in the wrist and pocket area is awesome. It's warm, and a reasonable price compared to TNF or Patagonia brands. I am 5'7'' 135 lbs and Medium fits well.

Typically I love Marmot --- but not this coat. Well, really the fake fur. The coat run very large so if you're say 5'11 and thin, order a medium....and promptly remove and destroy the wannabe fur. It is horrid despite what the gear heads say. I asked 3x and each one said great. Not even close. It's a deal breaker. Fur on the hood can be adorable and lightens up this big mass of color but not when it looks like something scraped off a highway in australia 32 years ago. So without the fur is the coat great? No.. In the pictures i looks like it's slimming. It's not. It makes you look like a big bubble. Save your money and buy a better design.
