Good jacket

I purchased the pewter in a small and it fit good. The armpits were tighter than other jackets with similar size. The quality seemed good and the warmth seemed to be good. I didn't keep it long because I was bummed to see it is made in China. I wanted to support a smaller company but it looks like they don't make them in the states. If you check out their website it seems like a good company. Also the Pewter color is a little darker, which I liked, than most all pictures I could find on line. Btw I am 5'9" and 140 lbs with 30 waist. This jacket is not bulky and is pretty light. It does have a nice tri cot soft lining on the inside of the collar, nice touch if you like that. The almost hidden chest pocket is pretty slick also. The material is a thin standard ripstop nylon, nothing fancy. Good luck
