Review on πŸ§₯ Stay Warm and Dry: Wantdo Women's Waterproof Ski Jacket for Snowboarding and Winter Sports by Original Mansel

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Pleasantly surprised

I'm a tall girl and it's quite difficult for me to find coats that fit me in shops. I didn't have high expectations for a Chinese-made non-branded coat - I expected the Chinese 2XL to be more like the American size. Stomach and waist not an issue) but appears to be a very well tailored, well designed garment. Pros and cons from my point of view: Pros: * Nice fit (even for a curvy girl) with cinched waist * Full coverage from torso to hips * EXTREMELY warm! (Only tested in 20C so far but was hot enough for me) * Waterproof/water repellent shell (I assume. It hasn't rained so I couldn't test how effective it is) * Deep fabric - lined front pockets with zip plus additional inner pockets * Many additional details such as an elastic inner lining and an additional drawstring to protect against drafts, warm fluffy torso lining and intentionally ripped sleeves to fully cover the hands on the small hand but shorter on the thumb side for better mobility. Cons: * It's VERY warm, which wouldn't normally be a disadvantage, but I was in the store for 5 minutes and had to take it off because I was sweating. In addition, the armrests are not padded, so sweat only dripped onto my arms under the waterproof material. It was pretty uncomfortable. * The hood is huge. I have to turn my whole body to look around. It's still cute * The wrist clasps come off fairly easily, but it's really just a minor inconvenience. All in all, a high-quality and well-made product that I would happily recommend!
