Arc'teryx Fission SV Jacket - Women's
Not the right one for me

I bought this jacket because of an excellent review in Smart Money magazine. I live in Chicago and needed something that would keep me warm. However, this is more of a ski jacket than a commuting to work jacket. The very large flaps at the neck became like blinders when I was seated driving in the car. The pockets are very small and shallow. Considering the cost, it just didn't meet my needs and I sent it back.
