Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero Down Jacket - Women's

Too short for even a short person

By Ranked #1139 - Women's Down Jackets January 20, 2006

I am 5'3" and according to the sizing chart I should wear a 6 - the only problem is that the 6 barely comes to the top of my pants and the sleeves barely reach my wrists. Any movement at all and the jacket flies up exposing the very parts of my body I'm trying to keep warm. I've switched to a size 10, even though it is a little wider, it's nice to have the coat sit lower. And with the inside draw strings it's still pretty cozy. It's a great jacket, for sure. But definitely short. My advice: Go Big. It's a fluffy jacket anyway.
