Patagonia

Down With It Parka - Women's

Perfect when it goes below 20

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

Size Bought:

M

LOVE this coat. Warm. Cute. love the bottom zipper and the SNAPS too. nice and warm without looking like a marshmallow. I have a small torso, i usually wear size small in patagonia tops. Ordered a M so i could layer under it. Tried a S first, i could wear it, but could not really put anything on beneath it. HIGHLY recommend this parka for those looking for a warm cozy winter parka to get through those cold days in STYLE.

Excellent Jacket

Size Bought:

Medium

I got this for my wife as a holiday gift and she is loving it so far. She's had it for a few weeks and it's been her go-to jacket for daily use given the cold weather we've been having. The length of this jacket along with the material inside makes it super warm. High quality coat with durable outer layer, expect many years out of this jacket.

It's alright

Got this jacket for my wife as a gift for Xmas. According to her, it's one of Patagonia's warmer jackets? Yet she has to add additional layers underneath to actually be warm. Although unimpressed by it's performance, it seems she still semi likes it. It's stylish looking at least.

Nice coat, bad hood

Familiarity:

I returned this product before using it

The coat fit well. It was comfortable and seemed warm and well made. I needed to return it because of the fatally flawed hood. Lacking any adjustment at the back of the head, the hood just could not be made to fit properly. Too bad.

Full coverage helped for sideways rain

Size Bought:

XL after trying Large

After strolling the streets in Europe and observing THOUSANDS of coats, jackets, parkas, and ponchos, I really longed for a thicker collar into a large cape hood. I also liked the parkas that had the slit zippers on the side. However, I am so grateful for the inside zipper on this for passports and wallets. I loved that I could unzip the lower portion to give it more of an A-frame. And the no show snaps hiding the zipper fully. I like the color of the chocolate brown and the material on the inside and out. And I LOVE that it is sustainable in its production. It did get a grease mark early on the trip that never seemed to go away. It’s in the wash right now so hopefully recovers. I’m following label instructions.

warm and dense winter coat

Size Bought:

XS

Height:

Weight:

115

I just purchased so I haven't tested in cold temps yet but I have no doubt that this is a warm coat. It hits alittle longer than other midlength coats. I'm 115 lbs and 5,2" and this hits at my knee. Its comfortable yet has a tapered silhouette in the waist and I appreciate the removable hood. The coat is packed with fill and its touch heavier than my other midlength insulated coats.

Nice jacket but short sleeves

I am average height and the sleeves are too short. Recommend only for petite people.

The perfect parka!

I bought this a few weeks ago and it kept me very warm in NYC when it was 25 degrees outside. I’m 5’5, 118lbs and the small fits well with a sweater underneath. Made well, good pockets and zippers.

Great parka

I feel in love with the jacket as soon as I put it on. The fit, the warmth - the length especially - the best. It is true to the size. I wear most of my clothes in size L, except for the few brands (XL), but like anybody I got confused after reading reviews and doubting myself and ordered XL and sorry to say will be returning it. It is bit too roomy in the arms and shoulders for the true L that I am.
