Better than Patagonia

Ranked #715 - Women's Down Jackets
November 3, 2009
I live in Maine, and need a good down jacket for those brutally cold days. I got the Patagonia down jacket, assuming I would love it. I didn't. It was too short, and I felt like a marshmallow. So I sold it on eBay, and got this jacket, as I love all other Marmot jackets I own (I have 5-6 of them). This jacket is so much better. It's just as warm, and the FIT is SO much better! It is LONG enough in back so that the wind doesn't come up! It is a puffy jacket (it's a high-fill down jacket so this is a given), but I do not feel ridiculous wearing it. I have the rainwater color, which is bright, but not overly so. It is a great color. The only thing I'm not 100% fond of are the wrist cuffs. They are a little big and lack any nice detail (no velcro or liner or anything)... but this is not a deal breaker... just a minor complaint. Otherwise, love the jacket!
