solid down jacket

By Vanessa H. Ranked #84 - Women's Down Jackets September 14, 2009

I've had this jacket for a year now, and it's what I pack when I'm traveling and will need both a casual jacket and one that can work for a semi-dressy situation on a cold night. It's very versatile that way - it's not too puffy, the pockets are flush and very low-profile, and the cut is feminine. It's very warm considering its size. I'm 5'11"/135lbs and the medium fits me perfectly. It's not as snug and fitted as the backcountry luft 800, but it's well proportioned.
A few details I like: the two-way zipper is rad. It comes in handy sometimes for cooling off or reaching something in the interior pocket if I'm wearing a scarf. Also, the interior deep mesh open pockets are great for stashing plane tickets or what-have-you.
For the tall and thin, I don't think you can go wrong with this jacket.
