So Cozy

I don't know what I'd do without this coat. Be cold and uncomfortable a lot? I live in Chicago, along the lake, and I walk 2-4 miles a day as part of my commute. On more mild days, during those speedy walks, I do get hot in this coat, but I'd rather be too warm than cold.
My only other criticism is that I think if the sleeve seams were right on the shoulder, it would be a bit of a better fit. But, the length and waist fit are great. I don't have any trouble with it getting dirty. Salt wipes right off, just like my other North Face coats with the HyVent material. Other puffy coats absorb water after a while, but not this one. Also, it has a 2-way zipper, so if you're short like me, you won't have trouble with the zipper breaking when you kneel down.
Definitely recommend if you live somewhere with cold, snowy winters.
