By D.Chu Ranked #285 - Men's Synthetic Insulation Jackets December 5, 2009

This jacket is great... however they have a very annoying stitching issue. As referenced in other review, a lot of threads are coming loose and the synthetic insulation material is seeping out. That happened within the first month, but it never got any worse strangely and I have owned the jacket for about a year. I expected some seams to burst, but they never did. I wear it almost daily in the late-fall and winter in Minneapolis but have had no further issues.

I wear it almost daily because it's my favorite jacket. I have a pretty athletic build (currently 190 lbs, roughly 40" chest, 32" waist) and this fits me PERFECTLY. One of the few jackets I tried on that fit the way I wanted to, and it is reasonably priced to boot. Tapered with just enough room for adequate mobility. Plenty warm too. I've worn it down to around zero (below with windchill) and been fine as long as I have gloves and head protection.
