Ranked #2368 - Men's Down Jackets

Well, I tried the medium and the size fit. ( See my review on the large below) There were a few flaws in the coat and the hood is sized for a helmet! Needless to say I sent the jacket back. I want to compliment the people at BC, they do a great job in CS!! Now TNF just needs to get a few things fixed.. like thier sizing and some designing issues! I next tried a large Amplitude jacket which WAS the right size for my body! This could of been a really nice jacket BUT the outer zipper is weak plastic and came apart the second time I zipped it up! I wanted to keep that jacket but the arm pits are cut so small you need to be a rail for a decent fit. What a shame, I have many columbia jackets that just walk all over these products at a lower cost. Will someone wake up TNF!!!
