I just got this coat and absolutely love it. It's SO light, the fabric is extremely comfortable, and it definitely keeps you warm in the cold weather, without making you too hot. I'm 5'6, 130lbs, and I got the small bc I was afraid of the coat being too poofy and unflattering if I sized up. The small fits snugly, and I can layer it underneath my Backcountry softshell without looking too bulky bc it compresses so well (I probably can't layer much under it). I wore just the coat over a t-shirt today in 30-degree weather, and I was just fine.
I agree with another comment about the side pockets being small--they are not too small for my hands, but if you like stuffing lots of things into the pockets, you might not like these. Also, the description on the site says there are 2 hand pockets and 1 chest... but there actually isn't a chest pocket--just 2 outer hand pockets and 2 inner hand pockets.
I ended up getting the Berry color bc I didn't want the feathers to show through, and I am very happy with the color. The photo shows a very bright pink, but in real life it's more of a fuschia/magenta, and the feathers don't show through. If you want to get a better idea of the color, browse other Stoic women's coats that come in "Berry."
