Awesome Jacket, Durable and Warm

By Ranked #807 - Men's Down Jackets September 10, 2010

Hi, This review is for the 2010 model which seems different from the previous versions. It has more area reinforced with tougher fabric in the shoulder and arms. Fit is improved since I believe MH lengthened the cut a bit in the torso. I am 6-2 190 and it fits perfectly over baselayer, fleece and even my softshell but still doesnt feel too bulky or excessively large. I havent tested it but seems like a durable, warm jacket but still light enough for backpacking. It packs surprisingly small! (can be compressed much more than the size of the included stuff sack)

Hey man, what size do you wear? I normally wear a small, but I found the jacket to be way too short.
