MontBell Ultralight Thermawrap Insulated Parka - Women's
outstanding
By Nicholas Truax
Ranked #664 - Women's Synthetic Insulation Jackets
February 4, 2009
With slightly thicker insulation than its non-hooded counterpart the thermawrap jacket, this lightweight parka is amazing. I got it for my lady who is 5'5" and ~110lbs in a med due to its slightly small sizing. It is a bit heavier than its down cousin but adds a margin of safety in the chance of it getting wet. It weighs a scant 309g w/ its included 7g stuffsack on our digi. The construction is impeccable as are all the MB products that we have purchased. It has an adjustable hood, hem, and a triangle of stretch fabric at the cuffs, which all are very functional It is definitely not bomb-proof due to its lightweight nature though, so no bushwacking. Overall an outstanding parka.

I got the mens, then got my fiance the same jacket! so warm! She is 5'8", 135 and the large "fits perfect" she says. I uploaded a picture of her flying a kite on mt hood while wearing the jacket. She loves it more than a down product simply because there are no worries about it getting wet.
