The good and the bad
By olive1472950
Ranked #2196 - Women's Down Jackets
December 23, 2008
The good: no giant logo, great length for city walking with two-way zip, fluffy filling, soft fabric, really warm.
The bad: the velcro closure is very annoying, the furry lining is static-y, and the fit is unforgiving if you are short-waisted like I am.
I had to return it, and live with the giant horrifying logo of the Northface coat I exchanged it for(the Metropolis Parka) which fits better and has a snap storm flap and is much less static-y.
