The North Face Aconcagua Down Jacket - Women's
blocks wind and cold well

Ranked #4200 - Women's Down Jackets
December 18, 2007
The Jewel Blue color is pretty. I am a person who is always cold and this coat does a very good job at keeping the shivers at bay. The small was too tight across the chest, however (which isn't a typical problem for me), and both small and medium aren't long enough in the sleeves for my monkey arms. Also the cuffs don't keep my gloves tucked in or the cold from creeping in there. I kept the Medium anyway because of the wind blocking, warmth retaining properties and because no one else had this pretty blue color!
