The jacket is much more than expected and will probably be too much for NJ but I am sure we will have a few days here and there where it come in handy. The jacket is long so if you are at a football game in the middle of winter you will stay warm sitting on a cold bench for sure. The jacket zips in on the left side which is a little bit hard to get use to and the zipper seems to be a little finicky to get it to work. With the double zippers I have found that you need to hear a click once the zipper is inserted and then you can zip up the jacket without issues. The hood is supper insulated as well. Due to all the insulation the arms almost feel like they are snug. I have heard people saying these jackets run large but did not see that to be the case on my jacket. I can easily add a sweater or another layer under the jacket but not much else. The jacket seems to be the correct size. The pockets are huge and the has inside pockets, comes with a pouch to fold the jacket up and use as pillow.

This jacket is the best. With a size medium alone, the jacket fits rather well. It was a bit bigger than I assumed based on the image but it is actually the right type of jacket I purchased. More than what I purchased, this jacket is amazing.

Best Jacket Purchase of all time

Familiarity:

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

Size Bought:

XL

I bought this jacket after doing a lot of research comparing other brands in a similar price range. This is without question the warmest jacket I've ever owned, and the quality is unmatched. I wore it regularly in 15 degree temps w nothing but a long sleeve shirt on and at no point felt cold. This is a lifetime purchase, and worth every penny. I'm 5'10 and 210 lbs, musc build. I considered a large, but am glad I went up to XL. It fits perfectly.

Only for extreme cold

Im 6’ tall 250lbs and have a bodybuilder build and I wear XL. With a thick wool sweater its snug. Have worn it in -40 Fahrenheit and still warm

Expedition Down Jacket

The jacket is amazing, very warm, the pocket placements are great. This jacket is filled with top quality down with a fantastic hood and very robust zipper. The material is hard wearing and will last a lifetime, I have many Fjallraven jackets but this is the best. Lee P

Expedition Down Jacket.

This jacket is excellent, very warm, I'll never feel the cold again. The quality of this jacket is amazing. The pocket placements are excellent. Very robust zipper and drawcords, you can easily use while wearing large gloves. The fill of the down is unbelievable. I have many Fjallraven jackets but this is the best. So good I bought the Lite version also. Both jackets will last me for many years.

Toooo warm...but very cozy

This is the warmest jacket I've ever owned. I do lots of winter camping and I must say unless you're pulling a pulk, you're probably better off with the lighter version of this jacket. But I was very happy to have it with me during my last trip to Yellowstone National Park; exceptionally warm and comfy and also makes for one of the best pillows (outside a real pillow).

Extremely warm

I am 5'9", 220Lbs Athletic build and purchased an XL which fits perfectly. I live just North of Quebec City, QC, Canada in the mountains and I am also in the Canadian Military. I do not wear this jacket for snowshoeing because even if it's -30C, it would be too warm, however, I do wear it in -20C and colder for low level activities and I do not feel the cold at all! This jacket is perfect for once you have climbed your mountain and have set up camp and just need to chill while staying warm. I Love it
