I have the original nature cami from like 6+ years ago and that one keeps on going like the energizer bunny.

I have this version in black, and the material they use for the strap and the seam at the top has stretched out so that it puckers outward now. I've only had it for a couple of months and probably 5 washes maximum. This one will definitely not last nearly as long as the older one (the strap and seam was made of merino wool).

Honestly, why do companies try to "improve" on something that is perfectly fine and in the process make them inferior??

p.s. unlike the previous reviewer, it should be stressed that this does NOT have a shelf bra.

wish this sweater came in more colours. I love the style, colour, fit, and best of all, the comfort in wearing it. It's so warm and fuzzy, it feels like I'm wearing a blanket.

It's got such a nice and unique style to it, I get compliments every time I wear - from strangers. I'm glad I shelled out the $$, it's worth every penny and then some. I see my size is gone now, so others feel the same way!

I normally wear XS in Prana, and the sweater fits flatteringly without being restrictive or tight. It washes well and so far hasn't pilled up excessively.

I honestly can't say enough about this sweater. I hope Prana brings it back next year in other colours!

when I first saw them out of the box, I wasn't sure if I liked them - the white toe bumpers were awfully white. But then it was love at first wear, as they are so comfortable and something that most snow boots can't boast - LIGHT!!

They're really cute, and look great both under jeans (look just like sneakers) and jeans tucked in. I get compliments whenever I wear them.

Unlike the canvas coronado shoes, these are super comfy. I got 7.5, my normal Keen size, and they fit true to Keen sizing.

The only thing I'm not gushing over is the bungee lacing. Once done up snug, there's quite a bit of lace hanging over and I have to tuck them in several times under the lacing. But this is really minor. I wholeheartedly recommend these!

I had to retire my much loved Venturas, so got these to replace them. Granted the Venturas are the most uncomfortable Keens I own, I loved how they looked with capris.

These look cute, but my goodness they are so stiff!! they feel like they were dipped in glue, the canvas is so unforgiving they cut into my ankle bone. The soles are so slippery I would easily slip on my wood floors at home. They also fit smaller length wise than other Keens, I'm usually a steadfast 7.5 but my toes are touching the end of these shoes. Like Venturas, no arch support. You'd think Keen would have improved upon the previous generation Venturas by adding more support and durability, but I guess they just changed the look.

I like the lavender colour, but the trooper ink looks a bit odd with the all-white bumper. I'd imagine they'll get scuffed really easily. Sadly, they're a miss for me.

ok, forget about comparing this to another jacket. So glad I got it. I buy online all the time, and I find pictures are often misleading and when I get the actual product they never quite live up to what the picture looks like or how they describe it.

Not this jacket. It's absolutely gorgeous! I got the turtle dove, and it's refreshingly light from all the dark colours you see everywhere. It's very figure flattering and I often dress it up with knee-high boots. Can be used for more "rugged" activities like hiking, too. Very versatile and packable.

I'm 5'4"/112lbs and got size small based on other reviews. Leaves enough room to layer but still gives me shape (not boxy at all!)

My only concern is keeping the light colour free of dirt and markings. Fingers crossed!

Love it!

I grabbed the last pair of XS in bittersweet, and I'm feeling triumphant. The material is thick and luxurious. The bittersweet color is gorgeous, kind of brownish, olive-grey depending on the light (it's nice!). Goes well with everything; I even wear with a sweater and low-profile shoes with these to work.

The waistband sits higher than I normally like (about an inch below navel), but considering these are meant for active wear, the pants stay put. The only "complaint" I may have is that I feel the inseam's a tad too short. I'm 5'4"/112lbs with 30" inseam. These are probably 29" inseam in XS. So if you're lanky, you'll find these too short. But, truthfully, it's nice to wear pants that actually aren't made with 35" inseams; they are a perfect length for someone my height to wear while hiking or walking in the rain as they don't drag on the ground.

I'm sure I'll get plenty of use out of these in the coming months/years. They're pricey but worth every penny!!

I have quite a few merino wool tops/t-shirts, but none in a light colour. Took a chance with the cream, and I love it! I wear it the most out of all my merino shirts. I thought it might be a bit too see-through, and it will be unless you wear nude bra, but it also works great as an undershirt to a hoody.

Very soft to the touch. I normally wear XS in Icebreaker and Smartwool (5'4"/112lbs), but opted for a small in this and glad I did. It fits without being skin-tight, and loose enough without it looking too big. Wears and washes well, no pilling after about a dozen washes so far. Great product!

my lovely boyfriend bought me these, and I'm so glad he did. They are just truly amazing. I have a pair of smartwool boyshorts, and the cuffs on the thighs are so tight and the waist so high, it's not really pleasant so I was a bit skeptical of these. But they sit a nice height, not too high nor too low, and the cuffs on the thighs hug without cutting off circulation and they don't ride up.

I wore them as undershorts over regular underwear when I wore a skirt on my bike - stylish enough that if you inadvertently flashed, nobody would know they were undies!! wish I was rich so I can replace my whole underwear drawer with these!

I love merino wool so I don't really want to complain, however, there is one detrimental design flaw that prevents me from absolutely loving these.

The stitching by the leg openings are made of non-stretch thread. I believe they did this in hopes of preventing ride-ups, but instead they created a very uncomfortable pair of underwear.

The wool is very soft next to the skin, and the waist is a bit higher than I like, but that wouldn't matter if the leg openings didn't dig into my upper thighs when I sit down.

I'm 5'4", 112lbs so ordered the XS. I do not have much in the way of thighs, so I wonder what will happen if I was a bit more shapely or muscular. If I went to a size small then it would be too big in the butt area so I know the sizing is correct.

All in all, it's a bit of a disappointment. I'll still wear them, though it won't be with a lot of loving feeling.

they do not fit true to size, but one should size up. I'm pretty much a standard XS in most clothing, but with these I could barely zip up the fly (I'm not curvy at all). Forget trying to button it up, one time I did I had the most hideous looking muffin top you can imagine!! being active in that state? not so much...

They are well made, and I love the accent colour, but they really are fit very small. I had to return them.

There were quite a few surprises to this jacket. When I bought it, I thought I was getting a light fleece cardigan to wear indoors. What came was a fairly substantial jacket that is bonded to be windproof.

The bonding makes the jacket somewhat bulky and stiff, but I imagine with wear it will loosen up. I really wasn't sure about it due to its stiffness, but I was sold when I went out. The pockets are super warm, and it kept me warmer than I thought it would. Granted it wasn't windy out so I don't know how windproof it is, but with a shell on top you'll be quite warm.

The colour is pretty, the pink is a bit more muted than what I see on the monitor. The size is pretty bang on and is flattering.

It's not going to keep you warm in a blizzard or keep you dry in a downpour, but for casual wear it's top-notch.

this is a very poor cousin of their previous That 70's Shirt. The other one was made of thicker fabric, and the arm bands were sewn in rather than this one which is just painted on. All in all it's just an OK shirt, the older one was much better. Sizing is true.

I basically wanted a nice mug that kept my tea hot/warm at work. Keeps it hot for a couple of hours, and even by lunch it's still quite warm.

Couple of caveats: the lid has a plastic rim to stop the liquid - it's not completely sealed so condensation and liquid gets inside the loop, which is a big no-no for a germophobe such as myself. The cup (and lid) is exceptionally difficult to clean, so even though I've only had it a couple of weeks, it's already showing wear.

I haven't nor will I try carrying it in a bag for later consumption, I have a feeling it'll leak. For that purpose I have a bomb-proof one, so this one is strictly for sipping in front of a computer.

I get lots of compliments on the blue colour I got, it IS beautiful in that regard.

If you're looking to look cool at work drinking out of a beautiful mug, this one's for you.

I bought this as I needed some support for low impact sports like hiking.

When I first looked at it, I scoffed as it was SO light and thin. But when I put it on, it was...comfort.

No binding, bunching, or pinching. Perfect for hiking in the hot weather as you don't feel drenched.

It really is very comfortable, but definitely not to be used for high impact sports or if you're much bigger than a B cup. I'm 5'4"/115lbs/32B and the xs/s fits great.

I didn't expect too much of this jacket, other than wearing it for cool morning rides or run. But I find myself reaching for it for just about everything. It fits snug, but I like it that way - don't want too much material when you're being active.

Sizing is bang-on. I always wear XS in backcountry brand and this is no exception.

The only downside to it is I have long monkey arms so the arms are on the short side, especially if I'm on my bike. Same with the hem, I wish it was about an inch longer.

I'd say it's pretty darn waterproof, I've ridden in a downpour and it kept me dry, and definitely wind proof. Love the fleece backing, all cosy inside.

I get compliments every time I wear it. Definitely worth every single penny!

I got this because of the wool blend and the thumb holes.

The arms are long enough for my monkey arms but the holes are actually a bit constricting. I don't think I can wear them comfortably for very long. But since the sleeves are nice and long anyways, it's okay not to use the thumb holes.

The sizing is true - and because of that, I wish it came in XS as S for me is a bit large (I'm 5'4" / 34A / 115lbs).

But I'm keeping it because it's a lovely shirt that is technical but comfy to wear.

These are my 8th pair of Keens, and my 3rd pair of Keen boots. I was sad that my Stockholms, which I lived in all last winter, are no longer waterproof, so to assuage my pain I bought these.

These are slightly more dressy than other Keen boots; I wear them to work and love the leather and suede look, sometimes at a glance they almost look like Mary Janes peeking out under the jeans hem.

The foot bed is super supportive, they actually feel like my Vibram soled hiking boots - stiff but supportive. I've walked about 3 miles the first couple of days on slushy roads and my feet didn't complain a bit.

The only gripe is I wore them the first time with socks that slouched, and my right boot rubbed where the zipper is at the top. I've remedied that by wearing higher socks.

Sizing is pretty standard Keen - order half size larger. I wouldn't go down like the other reviewer said, your toes will hit the tip. The synch will help you get the perfect fit.

I see they're on sale now - I highly recommend these, they breathe well and definitely keeps the wetness out.

These are my 8th pair of Keens and my 3rd pair of Keen boots.

These are probably the dressiest of the three I have (Stockholm, Chamonix), and gives me an added inch of lift.

These remind me of my vibram-soled hiking boots in that they are stiff and therefore quite supportive. They're not soft in the heels like the other two, but I can still wear them for miles without discomfort.

The waterproofness is superb, and the breathability makes wearing them indoors during the day a breeze.

The only problem I've had so far is the first day I wore them with slouchy socks and the right boot where the zipper ends at the top rubbed my skin. I just now wear high socks.

Sizing is pretty standard Keen - if you're on the larger side of a particular size, go half size up. These do feel pretty true to size, but I went up half size like I do with all my Keens and this affords me to wear thicker socks.

All in all, dressy yet casual, and ever so functional. Thumbs up!

Not too impressed, as my right boot leaks now. I lived in them all last winter, and this winter I found during a rain storm that the waterproofness is no more :(

They're still cute, and the inside lining held up super well, but I am ever so disappointed that I only got one season of dry feet (considering the price!!)

I love this jacket. I bought the backcountry.com wool jacket last year and absolutely love that one. The Siphon is cut more or less the same (this one's a tad shorter in the back than the wool).

For a jacket that's almost paper-thin, it keeps me very warm. It's also super packable, so I can shove it in my backpack and put it on when it starts raining.

The bonus is the fabric - I was walking the other day from brunch, and I got splattered by a bird and it wiped right off!

The sizing is probably slightly smaller than true, but I love how it fits me, it's very fitted and I get compliments every time I wear it. People recognize the quality even if they may not recognize the goat - at least not just yet!

I absolutely love both my backcountry.com jackets, I alternate just so I won't neglect one!

These don't fit my feet very well. I've never had a problem with fit with Keens, but these truly don't fit my feet well.

My usual Keen size of 7.5 was a bit on the tight side (don't listen to those who say they're true to size, size up at least half if not full size!!) If I wear them with wool socks, my toes bang up against the tip. And while the length is tight, my heels are loose. I can tug all I want with the laces, but there's a lot of heel movement, which is not what you want with "hiking" shoes.

They're also rather hot in the summer, too.

I kept them and wore them on a camping trip, but I'm still not completely won over by them.

I don't really want to say anything bad about Keen because my shoe closet is full of them, but these were a miss. Sizing is really off with these, too. All my 8 pairs of Keens are 7.5, but they were much too small in the Charleston. But size 8 was too big. 7.75, perhaps??

The soles have some strange consistency to them which makes them somewhat slippery on carpet.

All in all, I wasn't impressed with these. Presidios are a better bet.

After discovering merino wool, I got rid of most of my synthetic jackets and shirts. But I really needed a fitted hoody, and this one fit the bill at a great price on SAC. It's cute and stylish, and my goodness how I love the thumb loops!

I recently wore this on a boating trip, and it kept the wind out more than I thought it would. The hood is neither too big nor too small, just right for women. Sizing is true to TNF's fit.

The pattern on the inside of the hood adds a splash of colour. One weird thing is when I washed it, it gave off a very odd chemical smell...

But, all in all, this is a great jacket for the spring/fall. I take it everywhere with me.

I have 7 pairs of Keens, and their sizing is consistent, in that they all run a half size smaller than your normal size. HOWEVER, these run a full size smaller, in my opinion. I put them on, and my toes were pretty much at the tip. With wool socks, my toes were sore after a day of walking around.

They are comfy, don't get me wrong, but be warned that they run rather small.

I also found that even though I seem to fill up the length, my heels move an awful lot. I can't seem to stabilize them with the shoe laces which seems to come loose quite easily.

I wouldn't say these are serious hiking boots, more like casual trail walking. In retrospect I think I should've bought the mid-length boot instead.

this is a great t-shirt. I bought it for working out, and it's great in keeping me cool and wicking sweat away. It's quite long in the torso, so if you're going to use it as a base layer, you won't have to worry about baring your back when you bend down.

The sizing is pretty true, there's room to size down if you want a snug fit. The colour is more rust than rose, but still really nice nonetheless. A bit pricey, but once you fall in love with merino, you are happy to spend that kind of money on them!

Eden was too big. I was assured Porter would be smaller, and they are, but they're still too wide for a typical woman's face. I would say I have a medium sized face, if anything it's probably wider than the average. Yet the Porters were definitely too wide for me.

They're not as ridiculous as Edens, but I still occasionally catch myself looking like I'm wearing Grandpa's wrap-around sunglasses that fit over prescription glasses (Ray Charles, if you will, but nowhere near as cool looking as Ray!)

Having said they're too wide, they do fit the head quite nicely, though. The arms snug your scull, and the nose pad really does keep them from falling off.

I probably can give them 4 stars, but let's face it, at this price, you want to look b!tchin.

Still not sure if I'm going to keep these, some days I think I can live with them, other days, I feel like a kid wearing dad's glasses.

If you're a guy with medium sized face, these will probably look really good. But if you're a woman with average sized face, these will be too big for you.

I have a closet full of packs. I'm on a hunt for the perfect pack, and this one comes closer than all that I have.

It's a very comfortable pack. The back padding is not as stiff as others and seem to mould to your back. But, that also means that you get a sweaty back in the summer...

It also carries a lot - I even stuffed a frying pan the other day (don't ask). The laptop pocket's a cool idea, I'll have to buy a laptop now so I can use the feature!

The zipper isn't covered, which is BAD because if it rains, no doubt the water will get in. This is a very poor feature as I live in the Pacific Northwest and I commute by bike.

The strap that comes across your chest should be more adjustable. I have it at the highest point and it barely clears the girls. I like to wear it up a bit higher.

I'm 5'4" and it fits me great, though if you're much smaller, I wouldn't recommend it as it might be a bit too big for you.

Overall, I'm quite happy with the bag, it satisfy all the requirements. Just wish it was a wee bit more rain-friendly.

I'm not sure if the jacket/sweater warrants the price tag it's got, there's nothing technical about this jacket. Granted it never claims to be anything but a fleece, but you'd think for this price it would at the very least be wind resistant.

However, having said that, it IS a warm cardigan (I wear it indoors). It's got a flattering cut, and pretty true to sizing. I'm in between a XS and S in most brands (5'4" 112lbs), and opted for S in this and it fits well, maybe a wee bit looser than I'd like as I would like to layer this underneath my down vest or my jacket. XS might be a bit too tight, though.

I got the 'vanilla', and it's a very pretty color, but having a black cat, it's probably not the best choice.

All in all, it's a nice fleece for late spring or early fall, but not technical enough to warrant the hefty price tag.

I really truly did want to love these glasses, but they were much too big. I don't have a small face, either, I would consider it medium.

The lenses are so big they made me look like one of the Olsen twins.

I don't doubt the quality of these glasses, the tobacco with grey lenses looked really good, but they were just simply too big. I thought about just keeping them for fishing and driving, but every time I smiled, my cheek bones would push the glasses up. And another annoying thing was they didn't fit over my head to rest them, the large lenses just kept sliding down my head onto my face.

I think Kaenon Georgia is smaller and I'll probably give them a try.

I picked up snowboarding a wee bit later in life, at 32.

Luna has been my best friend on the slopes for the last 4 years. It's seen me through the beginning to the point where I could probably get into a more advanced board. But I still love my Luna, it's very forgiving and versatile.

The graphics have gotten really boring of late though, I see.

I would say that if you're just starting out in the sport, this board will see you through til you're mastering everything else on the mountain. I'm still very happy with mine!

Looks cute on the computer screen, but in reality it's very flimsy. My first one came with a tear in one of the thin sections of the leather. I should've just left it at that and be done with it, but I got a replacement.

It's quite wide, so it won't go through regular jeans belt loops, and the buckle is way too big and looks goofy when done up. It's probably meant more for loose belting over skirts and not really for pants.

Wasn't impressed with the style or the quality, it's going back.

I needed a waterproof jacket for my bike commute in rainy Vancouver. The first thing I noticed when I got it was how pretty the colour is (I got Petit Four). However, I now have a brown spot below my back pack where the dirty water rode up past my rear fender. Oh well!

I've never had a clammy ride yet, and it's kept the monsoon waters out all winter long. It's light, packable, and wears well. The only things I had to get used to was the hook-and-loop fastener on the collar that tended to snag on my helmet strap, and the hood that pulled the collar down a bit (not a cycling jacket so I can't really complain!)

All in all, it's a great jacket and I've worn it just about every day for the past 6 months. I'm sure it'll get tons more wear once the rains come back!

I just wish I lived in a warmer climate so I can live in capris. These capris come mid-calf, so they're not as "flood" as they make them sound.

The fabric is SO soft, and flows really nicely. I have two more HT items made of the same material and it's a great one to have on when the temperature rises.

I find that HT tends to fit a bit bigger than other brands. I normally wear size 4, and my other HT capris in size small is too big. XS fits like a glove.

My wrists look like they belong to a bird, so I've never been able to wear the cuff-style watches. I've been eyeing Nixon watches for a while and decided to try the Small Scout.

Out of the box it looks really beefy, but it looks good on my small wrist!

Couple of shortfalls: the loop that tucks the strap in is scratchy on the inside. I had to twist it around to the outside which shows the seam. I also wish it came with a date indicator.

But aside from those minor shortcomings, it's a really cute watch!

far exceeded my expectations! They should elaborate what "colossus knit" is - it's a nice waffle knit that looks like thermals. But I wear it with jeans and yoga pants alike, goes well with everything.

The contrast colour on the hood and collar is pink, not white like I thought from the picture.

The thumb holes are generous and not constricting, and the fabric is doubled up there so your hands have more protection.

Sizing is true. I'm a size 4, and the small is a looser fit, which is what I wanted, If you want a tight fit, then go a size down - it's got stretch so it won't be too tight.

It's comfortable, warm, fashionable, and non-stinky. What more could you ask for?

I was a bit unsure about this jacket. The pitfalls of internet shopping is buying it sight unseen, and I've had my share of misses. But this was a hit!

I only got it yesterday so I can't say how it will stand to the elements other than the short walk I took with my dog last night. It may be more of a late spring/early fall jacket, it'll probably be a bit cold for winter conditions.

I'm 5'4", 112lbs, so the xs fits, but I wont' be able to wear a bulky sweater underneath. But that's okay, because I'm slowly switching my wardrobe to merino wool and you don't need to bulk up. The fit is figure-flattering, but find that it's cut rather generously in the chest. Which is okay, it kind of gives me the illusion of having a bigger bust! ;-)

The fleece inside is soft, but because it's black, it's already collected a bit of white fur from my cat. The wool content is 25%, though, if that makes a difference to anyone.

Overall, it's a really cute kick-about jacket around town.

I have several pairs of Keen footwear, and thought what better way to round out my collection than to get Keen house slippers.

I was exceptionally and pleasantly surprised to feel immediate arch support the moment I slipped my feet into them. It literally was an "ahhhh" moment.

I would even hazard to say that these offer the most support of all my Keens. And why not? just because you're at home doesn't mean that you don't need support, right?

Might be a bit pricey to kick about at home or do casual errands, but they really are worth it as they are incredibly comfortable. Can't think of anything negative.

what can I say? I love Keen, so it doesn't take much to fall in love with them. As with most other Keens, they fit half size smaller than usual. They're not as clunky as other Keens, too, so they're more stylish. And take note that if you have over-developed calf muscles, they probably won't fit you very well.

The different leather patches are a nice touch, and there's a slight marbling of color to the leather which gives it such a nice look (I got seal brown).

So far the only negative I can think of is the fact that the lining is synthetic. I don't know how well they'll breathe, and I question the durability of the fabric. I wish they were made of boiled wool like the other Keen boots on this site (Chamonix).

Waterproofness is a definite bonus, though I don't know how well they'll stand up to a downpour with the seam going straight down the middle.

But overall, these are very swanky boots I'll definitely be wearing a lot of this winter!

I was very excited to find a pair of casual, yet supportive, shoes with contrasting stitching and soles (bought black). I hate all-black shoes so these were perfect. I first got size 7 (wear 7's in other shoes), but they were a tad small. Got 7 1/2, and they're a tad too big. Too bad they don't come in 7 1/4!

The look is casual but dressy - can easily shift from jeans at a cafe to a mild hike in the trails. And being weather resistant is great, as I commute to work by bike.

The reasons why I didn't give 5 stars are: 1) there was a break-in time, the leather at the back of the heel is rather stiff and rubbed my skin for some time, 2) smudges of glue are all around the toe which makes them look poor quality.

I took a chance on these as I needed a pair of sunglasses for traveling in England. They look great, not too big but with enough coverage and I look oh-so-hot in my boyfriend's two-seater.
However, they do not stand very well technically. They stems do not have much curve to catch on your ears so they kept on sliding down my nose during a hike, which proved too aggravating and eventually gave me a headache from my ears straining to keep them in place.
Another annoying thing is probably just my anatomical oddity having a fairly wide head, but they do not fit over my head while resting them so I have to either take them off or carry them.
The grading of the shade is great for driving and sitting at a cafe looking glamorous like Audrey Hepburn. Overall, the quality and the look is superb, and great for kicking about town, but if you're looking for a technical pair, these may not be the right ones.

you will notice how comfortable these are the moment you put them on. I love the colour as well (charcoal).
The only reason why I didn't give these 5 starts is that the rise of these pants are very high. I like low-rise, and got these because you can roll them down, but even rolled down it's higher than what I like. If I leave it unrolled, it tends to creep down and the crotch comes down quite low - not sexy!!
Size is true - I ordered up because the hoody made of this material ran small. I could've opted for a size smaller, and maybe the waist issue wouldn't be so obvious then. But don't let this deter you, these are great, comfortable capris!

I loved the casual, yet different style of the Switch. I bought the cocoa thinking it had pink in the straps like they look in the pictures, but they don't, they're all shades of brown and beige. The fit is very true to size, and my narrow feet fit very well. The leather footbed seems a bit slippery but I haven't worn them enough to mold them to my feet yet. Arch support is great. The service is fabulous and shipping is super fast. Can't wait for summer!!

I've had the Luna for 3 seasons now, and I'm still in love with it. I picked up snowboarding later in life (past 30!) after skiing for half my life. Initially I was pretty bad for a long time, but Luna helped along very well. It's a very forgiving board, and it's like your best friend, who'll see you through and gets you better. I'm happy to say I can zip down the piste at mach speed and tackle the gnarliest moguls. Luna's fabulous!!

I really wanted to fall in love with this jacket, it had everything I wanted: slim-fitting, warm, waterproof (which is a bonus in rainy Pacific Northwest), and something I can wear for spring boarding.

However, I found the fit to be somewhat awkward. The material is thin yet oddly bulky at the same time. Maybe it's the bonding to make it waterproof, but it was rather stiff and boxy-looking, the collar was very stiff and uncomfortable. Hood was way too big and in the way, I won't be wearing a helmet around town to put the hood over!

I normally wear an XS in Burton clothing but was told to get a small for its "athletic" fit. It is pretty true to size, even with a thick fleece underneath there's some room, I think I would've been fine with an XS.

It's an in-between jacket: too technical for every day wear, but not enough to be a proper snowboarding jacket (no powder skirt and possibly too thin for winter especially when it's blowing below zero with the windchill).

I also found the quality to be a bit cheap. Couple of stitches on the edge were broken on the inside where the ipod would fit (which I should also mention makes the jacket bulky/stiff in the chest area), and some of the stitching from the inside was showing on the outside, indicative of loose stitching

All in all, it's a nice looking jacket with super-soft lining, but it's just not "IT" for me. I'm looking at the North Face Redpoint Optimus for lightweight softness.
