Marmot Montreaux Down Coat - Women's

I bought this jack for my girlfriend and she loves it. She is extremely happy and I think I'm going to be purchasing a Marmot jacket for myself!

I think this coat is pretty fabulous, for several reasons....one it is really warm, warmer than my Patagaonia down with it coat, and it has an awesome hood,w hich I need, and it is hard to find...it is deep and cinches down with cinch cord. I also like how long this coat is, reaching to the knees, just like my patagonia down with it coat. I took a large and am a size 8, but I swim and am broad in the shoulders. I think it might run on the small side, but not by much. I think it will be far warmer than my patagonia and I need the hood for my wicked NE winds in upstate ny. It feels light still, but warmer, more down, and it is long, and has a great hood. I love the quality of patagonia, but the coats aren't that warm, and i am shocked how everyone thinks they are, cuz I am hardy, but they don't really cut it. So try it if you need a hood, and warmth. THe steel is alovely color, grey/navy, dark. Ya, I wish marmot wasn't blazed over the chest, but what can one do?

I wavered on this purchase for about a month, I wanted "white", and Moonstruck is not white, but all the other features finally swayed my decision and I couldn't be happier. This winter did not give this coat a true test as our temps have been way above average and we have virtually no snow. It is now late Feburary and sub zero temps with Lake effect snow seems out of the question. I will have many more winters to give it a true test, and I know it will be just as I expected. Does run a bit small so order up a size.

This is really one of the best down coats I have the XL fits like a glove - great for a guy as not too fitted and is soooo warm the hood is big almost snorkel like

I am 5'9" and a size 6-8 (athletic build). I usually wear a medium. I read several other reviews and ordered a Large. So glad I did as I am not disappointed at all in how it fits. I have just enough room to wear a heavier sweater or second layer underneath without it feeling too tight and have plenty of room to move through the shoulders. It is a little bit big in the waist area, but I would rather that than it be too tight in the shoulders. Side note: I tried on the North Face Arctic 2 Parka in the store and could barely breathe in the Medium yet was swimming in the large...not for me. So glad I purchased the Marmot coat! Sleeve length is perfect and the coat goes down to my knees, which is exactly what I had wanted. Best part of all, the coat is incredibly cozy/warm and does not feel too bulky. I am as happy as a clam in my new winter coat!

While this coat is very warm there's some things to keep in mind:
-if you are a girl with boobies, this might not work for you..It's very tight on the chest area ( Im a 34D)
-it runs small. I wear small (north face) and this coat has to be medium for me ( still, my breasts will be crushed inside)
- the cut is a bit weird...it's not flattering.

I am small,157 cm and 49 kg, and usually I order XS for my clothes. I red reviews for this coat, so I ordered S.
It was OK with T-shirt under neath, but if I wore a sweater, it was tight. I exchanged it with M and now I am very happy with this coat. It is very warm and has good length. I love it!

I just got my coat in the mail and love it! I'm 5'4" and 115 lbs, 32B and got a small and it's perfect. If you're much bigger than that in the chest/shoulders, though, I might go a size up. My only complaints are that the pockets aren't actually "fleece," they're more of a thin, soft, synthetic fabric, and that there are a lot of different materials in this coat - the body, pockets and cuffs are all a different kind of fleece-like material, and in the black coat, the bottom half and the hood are lined with blue nylon (navy), not black. Kind of weird. Otherwise, absolutely love it!
