Warm but not flattering fit

Positives: I can vouch for this coat being warm and very windproof. The arm length is long enough so if you have shorter arms, you may find the sleeves to be too long. I like that there are two zipppers. The hood had fill in it that made it warm as well. I liked that there was an inside pocket for an ipod/mp3 player and a slit near chest-level for the earbuds to come out. The espresso brown color is a nice shade.

Negatives: Maybe it was just me and my experience wearing this particular parka, but I found it to be very unflattering because there wasn't a real shape to it. The sleeves were very baggy. Maybe the parka could use more stitching to feminize it - if that makes sense. No offense to Outdoor Research. This is a durable parka that serves its purpose, I just slightly felt like I was wearing a garbage bag.
