McMurdo Parka

Ranked #57 - Men's Down Jackets
January 11, 2008
I just bought this coat in a size small (which was hard enough to find). I am a small guy but I fit into a general size small quite well. This coat is far too big if you want a fitted or even a regular sized coat. I could not believe this was an actual size small, it was way too big from the length of the sleeves, to the waist, to the hem. The cinch cords did not help since I pulled them all the way and the parka looked squished and not attractive. It would be adequate to keep you warm but it is too bulky and long. I advise going for a coat that is much lighter and more fitting since this makes you look like you are wearing a tent on you.
