Review on πŸ§₯ Stay Cozy with Outdoor Ventures Women's Maryan Hooded Ultra Lightweight Warm Thermolite Long Puffer Coat by Danielle Erickson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

works as advertised. warm and dry.

I chose this jacket because it is said to work well when wet (I have a Northern Face thermal balloon as my personal favorite but I wanted a longer coat for very cold days ). Unlike down, which smells awful if you accidentally wear it in sleet or rain, synthetic fabric will still keep you warm, and most importantly, it doesn't smell awful and doesn't need to be washed right away. I wore this in Chicago 05F in the winter. -20F, no temperature complaints. To be honest, even if the temperature is below 20, you still need long underwear and a thick sweater. This is good in strong winds. It's not very flattering around pockets (looks like thick pouches), but it's warm and dry. And for a long time. This is important. I usually wear a coat in a large size so I can later, but I ordered a medium size as it is oversized (hips can be an issue when choosing a bust size). It's more than I want, but not a deal breaker. For reference, my height is 5ft 3ft, 130lbs and bust is 36lbs. If need be, I could wear two or three sweatshirts underneath.

Pros
  • also understandable for old people
Cons
  • Requires a socket
