Verdi verdict

By buc2464603 Ranked #541 - Men's Down Jackets November 7, 2008

Bottom line, I had to send the jacket back. I really wanted to like the thing, even so far as to return the large I had first ordered and exchange it for a medium. But after wearing it around the house and testing the coat for fit and movement I found the garment disapointing in one crucial aspect. The hood. The hood is not helmut compatable nor is it head compatable if you wear a hat. Also the neck is so tight that when the zipper is closed it smashes my face and the velcro closers don,t work. The thing is warm though and might be good for walking the dog on a cold winter day but for sitting on sub-zero chairlift in the middle of Feb. with the wind howling in my ears I want something with a hood that will shut out the weather and let me hide.
