The North Face Thunder Down Jacket - Women's
January 5, 2011
This jacket has a narrower quilting pattern than the Carmel. The narrower spaces between the stitching gives a less bulky look. The chevron-shaped angle of the quilt stitching is very flattering look also rather than just plain, straight horizontal quilt stitching all the way around. I own this jacket from 2009, and have given one to each of my sons (actually the men's Patagonia Down Sweater--but same "concept" of light weight down with narrow quilting channels) and one daughter in law & 2 sons' girlfriends over the past 2 years (2 of them this Christmas for a total of 6 Thunder jackets since 2009). We all LOVE the jacket fit and warmth and wear it daily throughout the fall & winter season in Michigan and Denver. Almost weightless, yet cozy warm. Don't hesitate to make this purchase!

The North Face Thunder Down Jacket - Women's
January 2, 2010
I think the large would be perfect. I'm 5'7.5" and 156lbs. I wear a size 10 clothes. I bought the large NF Thunder last year and it couldn't be better! Nice contours -- not boxy.

The North Face Thunder Down Jacket - Women's
January 2, 2010
I purchased my NF Thunder jacket last winter. I'm 5' 8" size 10 and ordered the large (it fits beautifully--the medium was too tight in armholes and slightly across chest). The measurement of the center back from base of neck (started at collar seam) to the bottom of jacket is 25-1/2 inches. I do not have access to the sz Medium I bought this year for a gift, so I can't offer a measurement there. I will say the North Face Thunder is a fabulous jacket! I wear it everyday. It's extremely lightweight, yet cozy warm, and it's classy. I frequently get compliments on it (I have the gray one from last season). I purchased the black one for a gift this year and was very pleased with it--as was the young lady who received it. My daughter-in-law and son each wanted the Patagonia version, which I purchased for them, however, the North Face is much nicer. It has more stylish quilting pattern and the fabric is nicer! Don't hesitate to purchase the North Face Thunder!
