I really do like this jacket. Walked around the streets of NYC for 2 days last Christmas during windy, light-flurry days and was not cold. Warning: the jacket runs short. I'm only 5' tall and 110 lbs - I got a Medium because the Small was surprisingly too small. Medium fits great. USE ONLY POWDER DETERGENT to launder this jacket - called the hotline because after 2 washings, this coat lost lots of loft...and learned that LIQUID DETERGENT DOES NOT RINSE OUT OF DOWN AND MATTS IT!!! 2 more wash cycles with powdered detergent did the trick - soft and fluffy again!
