Description of Mountain Hardwear Downtown Down Jacket - Women's:
The Mountain Hardwear Women’s Downtown Down Jacket packs the plush warmth of 650-fill down insulation and makes your comfort a priority with the soft Velboa Raschel lining. A close cut shows off your figure and keeps you from feeling like you’re wearing a giant marshmallow. Whether you need a warm winter coat for around town or a top to wear for spring skiing, this Mountain Hardwear down jacket fits the bill.
Bottom Line: You only wish your current down jacket was this comfortable.
Nice Jacket, sizing is off. I am 5'5" and 130 lbs - normally between a small - medium in clothing, and definitely a medium in all my jackets. The medium in this jacket was giant on me (everywhere), so I exchanged for a small. The small however is a little too small, sleeves a tad too short and length could be better. I still wear it, although I wish sizing was better.
I like this jacket. Warm and comfy. Lining is really soft. Only drawback is that the sleeves however are a bit shorter than I like. And I don't have freakishly long arms or anything. Other than that size is accurate.

Jacket run as described, see MH size description 03-29-09
Bought it for my girl. Sizing is NOT off. She's 5 9 and 130lb and the fit is as it should be. She's a small. Sleeves are perfect and torso is as it should be. Read the the sizing charts on MH's website; they are accurate. The jacket is designed to fit at the waist. This jacket is not designed to cover your butt, get different MH jacket, like a down PARKA. Read product description b/c is tell you what the jacket is designed/intended for...
Overall, the look is great, puffiness is moderate, weight is fairly low, and 650 down is plenty warm around the low 30s.
