All the warmth without the puff.
By Styles
February 3, 2010
Picked this jacket up for my wife to meet her need for a "warm, down jacket that doesn't make me look like a marshmallow." If that sounds familiar to you (or any guy out there looking for a warm jacket for your lady who has similar feelings about the more puffy styles), then I highly recommend the Aconcagua Down Jacket. True to some other comments, the shoulders do seem a bit more broad, which is good for my wife with self-described "swimmer shoulders". At about 5'2'', the medium fit her just right...not too short or long and fits great under a shell when she rides. Not too shiny either!
