Not quite what I expected

By swoon2183650 Ranked #21 - Women's Down Jackets March 19, 2009

Pros: This jacket fits true to size and light.
Cons: I have the "molten red" and dark colored feathers still show through the fabric. I have not worn it out yet and found a couple of feathers poked through the fabric, hopefully the jacket does not continue "molting" too much. The fabric is thin (that's why it is so light) and has a low sheen to it. I compared this with the Patagonia Down Sweater and found the North Face is puffier with the same 800-Fill down. Also, I didn't care much for the large logos on the front and back on the North Face; and writings on the sleeves. As another reviewer said - "lke a walking ad for North Face."
Here's the Small jacket measurements (measured laying flat from the back):
Shoulder 14.5"; Sleeves 24"; Waist 17.5"; Under arm 19"; Neck to hem at back 23" (front slightly shorter)
