Description of Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero Down Jacket - Women's: |
|
Experience a warm winter despite the frigid conditions when you zip up the 650-fill Mountain Hardwear Women's Sub Zero Down Jacket. This jacket keeps you as warm as your winter sleeping bag, but its feminine cut looks flattering, not bulbous. The Sub Zero's polyester Z-Rip fabric resists tears and sheds light snow. Stuff your hands into the fleece-lined pockets to keep them toasty around base camp, and pull the one-handed hem and lower back drawcords to seal out the cold on a freezing alpine night. This backcountry puffy comes with its own stuff sack for packing ease.
Bottom Line: In town or at basecamp, the Mountain Hardwear Sub Zero Jacket will warp your perception of winter.

| I ordered this jacket after my fiance bought the men's version and loved it. Based on where my bust line was listed in the sizing chart, I bought a large, even though I'm only 5'4". By all rights I should be a medium, but sometimes jackets end up tight across my bust line, so I followed the chart, and it turned out to be too large. I've now ordered the medium, which fits better (I tried one on locally but bought at lower price on Backcountry.com).
As reported previously, this is not a slimming design. The horizontal baffles should be a clue! I too, look like a marshmallow, but warmth, not style, is the goal with this jacket. Nonetheless, my desire for a more flattering fit is why I gave the jacket 4 stars instead of 5.
Some reviewers have complained about the jacket being too short; this is a design meant for climbers, so it does not cover your butt by design. That said, if you are tall for your size, the Sub Zero may be too short for you. Another retailer's website lists the back length as 23.5". |

| warm but odd fit 01-26-09 |

| this jacket is super super warm--an impenetrable force of cozy, comfy, wonderfulness. however, unless you like looking like a puffed up marshmallow with HUGE shoulders (seriously, the fit in the shoulder/upper arms region was way too roomy for me) , and also like getting your butt/other layers wet since the jacket comes up really short, you should probably look for another jacket. |

| Great Jacket, but Short 03-13-09 |

| The other reviews who note that the jacket runs short in the torso are correct. At 5'8" the jacket sits too far above my hips. My sister has the same jacket and it looks great on her, she's 5'1". I didn't keep the jacket, but I think the quality is good, arm length fine, short...yes. |
