Outdoor Research Helium Insulated Hooded Plus Jacket
Worn on its own in cool weather or worn as a layering piece in cold weather, we like how the Outdoor Research Insulated Hooded Plus Jacket has pieced together eco-friendly fabrics into a versatile, lightweight hoodie. The innovative Vertical X ECO SR insulation mixes Repreve polyester made from recycled plastic bottles with Sorona polymer, which is partially plant-based to reduce our reliance on fossil-based materials. Easily packable and now available in plus sizes, it's our go-to puffy jacket for mild temperatures and a mid-layer that we can fit under a shell or keep in our pack for extra warmth when we stop for lunch, reach the summit, or kick it at the campsite.

Luvluvluv my Tangerine Cuddler
I live in California. But I'm always cold. My husband was determined to find me warm clothes of excellent quality. He put me online and talked about these puffer-like jackets. I was hesitant because a size 1X in a puffy jacket has not been my go-to look. BUT, these are not so puffy. They are thin and comfortable and so, so warm! And the color. I call it tangerine. It's a really great color. I get compliments every time I wear it. I wear it over my scrubs for work. I wear it over Tshirt and jeans on the weekends. I'm just thrilled with the technology that makes this thin, but warm. I am so happy to not add an extra size or two to my frame that a traditional puffy jacket would do. Am overall very happy to wrap myself with, as and cuddle with my jacket....my tangerine cuddler

Nice jacket but can't get past awful fit
I should have listened to reviews about the strange fit of this jacket because they are spot on. While the jacket is nice, the fit is too far off to keep. This jacket is really close around the hips (so close I wouldn't be able to layer much underneath) but the upper arms are far too big. Not only does this make for a strange fit, it looks so odd on the body. This one went back same day and am going on three weeks waiting for refund. :(

My favorite jacket I've ever owned
I have never had a jacket that is so incredibly functional, fits so well, and is ORANGE. It packs down pretty small, is pretty lightweight, yet is warm and lightly waterproof and just good for everything. I've climbed in it and skied in it and hiked in it. I wore it many times a week for a whole year and only got one little wear spot on one elbow (patched with tape now). I love how it fits, and how it breathes enough to wear on chilly days when I'm climbing so I can keep warm while belaying and not have to take it on and off. I love the zipper pockets and helmet compatible hood.

FINALLY! The perfect plus size puffy!
I cannot comment enough on how perfect this puffy is for my body. I almost cried when I zipped it up for the first time without having to suck in my belly. I was truly WARM in it (versus other puffy jackets that are too tight and prevent warming air circulation). I'm so thankful OR designed a line of plus size technical gear for those of us in big bodies. GET THIS JACKET RIGHT NOW.
