Very slight disappointment for me with this jacket. I scored one for $125 at Jens in Park City a few weeks back after coveting one for a while. The downside is: The jacket fits me nicely all over but it struggles to zip up to the very top. What gives ? Everywhere else it is a great fit and a great jacket but this seems a pretty strange thing....yes, I should've realized this before I bought it.
I won't bore you with the usual other stuff. Suffice to say that is satisfies all other Patagonia requirements(well made, 'mature' design, not over designed, user friendly, great zips). I do wish they would come equipped with wrist gaitors though, they make a huge difference. Bottom line: Make sure you try it on properly before you buy. Duh !
