Best lightest coat Ever!!
Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2016
LOVE IT! This jacket is perfect if you're a cold person like me who loves to be warm, but not overly bundle up to the point where you can't move! I think it will be great for prewinter, like right before the harsh winter cold starts, And a great addition to wear inside if it's extra cold and then another coat on top. It's amazingly thin, yet warm!! It feels like feather when you're holding it. And it's very true to size, Just ordered a medium though I'm a small in American size, just bc i don't like tight fitting clothes. I am grateful for this buy!
Favorite New Coat, Had Lots of Compliments Already!

I actually ordered two of these coats... The first one I ordered was a Large, because even though I'm a solid Medium in most other clothes, I wanted the coat to fit comfortably over sweatshirts and sweaters, and I don't like winter clothes to be snug. But it actually seemed TOO big, so I ordered a second coat (a Medium) without returning the first one so I could compare. The Medium turned out to the best fit, and I donated the Large to a Project Warm Us drop site. I didn't find any of the negative comments to be true -- the coat didn't have any smell at all, it doesn't look cheap in any way, and I didn't find the sleeves to be too short, even for a Medium. I LOVE the coat, and so do others apparently, because I started getting compliments the first night I wore it. I wish I would have had this on my Europe trip last year, because it's so lightweight, but keeps me so surprisingly warm (tested so far in 40-something degree temps). It's absolutely perfect for what I wanted -- something warmer than a windbreaker but just as sporty, and lighter than a bulky/heavy winter coat. I'm really happy with this quality product that is exactly what the supplier advertises it to be, and I would absolutely recommend it for others. I'm 5'5 and 130 lbs; the Medium fit perfectly.

The wantdo jacket sleeves were very long; I bough a medium size and the sleeves seemed large size. If you see the picture that show the model you can see the disproportion.
A must have!!

This jacket is awesome!!! I can't believe I was going to buy one similar for $200. I wore it hiking in 50 degree weather and I was burning up. Not because of the activity but because this jacket makes you so warm! I was so surprised at how well this jacket keeps me warm. The navy does have a purple tint to it, but one could tell that it's a navy jacket.
True to size even for plus size

I bought this jacket strictly for travel. Iâm much more impressed than I thought I would be. Iâm a size 18 and 5â7â tall. The 2x fit me perfect. Iâm writing this review because there are not enough plus size ones. I just got it today so I canât speak about the quality but I was very happy with the fit.
Not a great fit if you're a woman with a fuller bust...

Great color, very lightweight and the sleeves fit perfectly (though I'm only 5'1"), but the jacket itself looked like it should be for a teen or junior, not for a woman. If you're going by the size chart, you might want to order at least 1-2 sizes larger if you're going to buy one. (Especially if you're a woman with more than a DD cup...just in case.)
So warm! And not bulky!

After reading all the reviews I bought this coat because I wanted two things - a coat that was warm, but not heavy or bulky. When I pulled this out of my mailbox I thought there had to be some mistake as it was folded up small enough to fit in a small mail locker. This is extremely light weight! Others have mentioned the material is cheap, but really, I didn't think so, it is just very thin and light weight. But let me tell you, this is so warm and so comfortable and SO light weight (did I mention how lightweight it is?). I got a Large, though I am a size Medium (8-10) and it is quite fitted, I would not be able to wear many layers or a thick sweater under this. But it is so warm, I don't know that I would need too. I live in Southern Utah where it does not get much below freezing so I will have to test this out in colder, snowy climate, but it is perfect for what I need. My only reason for not giving a complete 5 stars is that the picture is misleading a bit. I am a curvy girl and have a small waist with larger hips (size 12 on bottoms). The picture made me believe that this would be a good form fitting coat as it hits below the hips. But, it is much more a straight cut. It is pretty tight around my hips and though I can zip it up, it is a tight squeeze. I still love it and will wear it, but will probably only zip it up if I'm freezing cold, or when I lose 10 more pounds.
One of the best, most practical things I've ever bought

I LOVE THIS JACKET!I live in Orlando and do not often have need of a warm coat, but had to travel to Boston a few times this winter for work. It packs down tiny to fit in luggage, is extremely lightweight, soft and comfortable to wear, and kept me plenty warm in 30-some degree temps. I am pretty wimpy in the cold but I was quite comfortable in this coat. I wear a small or medium top normally, but I am tall and sometimes my arms and torso are too long for some clothing, so I ordered a medium and it fit perfectly. The sleeves were long enough and the jacket came about mid-hip on me.My daughter visited North Dakota with her grandmother this winter for a weekend, so I ordered this jacket for her too. She wears a 12 or 14, and a women's XS fit her nicely, a little extra growing room so hopefully it will fit her next year too, but overall a pretty good fit. She loves this jacket and mentioned to me several times how comfortable it is. She wore it to school a dozen times or so this winter as well.We both got another good use of our jackets visiting north Georgia in March. It was a very outdoorsy vacation and we wore them quite a bit.I did not have high hopes for the durability of these jackets, given the low price and somewhat thin-feeling fabric, but surprisingly not a single rip or tear after multiple uses - and my daughter is rough on clothes. Since it is now time to store them for next season, I just washed them both on gentle cycle and hung them to dry per the instructions. They looked a little crinkly after that so I put them in the dryer with no heat, and voila, they are back to their original condition. I'm not sure if these jackets would stand up to being an everyday wear coat, but for light to moderate use they are perfect.

jacket shed down for first 5 or 6 wearings, but is fine now. garment was smaller than expected, but true to color. It is lightweight and comfortable, but not suited for truly cold (-10 C) weather

This jacket is very thin, (so would pack up easily) but it is remarkably warm. It is quite wind proof, surprising considering how thin it feels. ( i guess thats because of the down filling) The outer material feels like it would snag quite easily, so I don't wear it for anything that may damage it easily. The zippers are small ( hope they hold up ok) Love the colour ( acid blue). It's warm!! It suites my needs. You get what you pay for.

Great coat! Warm enough for glacier hikes and light enough for spring weather! Also great for packing small for long trips one thing I wish is that it was a bit longer on the back

I ordered medium but small would have done - I am sometimes between sizes but could have gone to the small.There is not much to this jacket as previous reviewers have said - it is VERY light with VERY thin down - too thin (I really don't know what is the point of a down jacket being this thin - as you wouldn't even need a down jacket for the conditions you would wear this jacket in). It just seemed like puffed up plastic. The elastic around the bottom and wrists and hood is a positive. The sapphire blue was nice but too shiny for me.I returned it as I didn't feel it was substantial enough and it really doesn't feel like a quality coat. Also, it was too wide - not shapely like in the picture.

Really nice jacket. I bought it late in the season so cannot review itâs warmth yet. The fit is a âtailoredâ sort of fit ... that is, I ordered the correct size and it fits well but is not baggy so if you like it loose or plan to wear bulky sweater under it, you may want to order a size up. They material is thin, but I think itâs meant to be (to keep weight down & allow greater âpackabilityâ). Also, there is a shiny quality to the material. Not a bad thing in my opinion but it may not appeal to everyone.Once I know how warm it is, Iâd definitely consider getting a second jacket in a different colour.

This jacket is light and comfortable but not too puffy at all. It does not look like the picture here. Much flatter and not as puffy. Hope it will be warm enough. Would not buy another product from this company!!

Many of the reviews advised to go up a size but that left me swimming in it. Works with layering though. The navy is a bit on the purple side but still very nice. And itâs perfect for the cool autumn days. Excellent value for the money and the construction is very good. Will buy again in another colour but will reconsider buying my regular size. Still completely worth it.

The jacket is lovely but too big. Ã listened to the reviews and I bought one size up and it was too large. Ã wanted a more tailored fit like in the picture. Ã sent it back and ordered a smaller fit. Ã am waiting on it now. The color is beautiful and it is lightweight. Ã think a bit pricey but still very nice

This jacket arrived vacuum packed so is very wrinkled as I opened it about an hour ago. I ordered a large and it just fits. I am 5' 4" and weigh 145. It weighs nothing so I will be interested to see if it is warm enough. If that pans out this will be a perfect jacket for travelling.My one complaint is that the hood doesn't come off.

I want something light weighted and this hit the mark. Wearing it now through the spring and expecting to pack it for the Alaskan trip. This is like a bomber jacket, so if you are looking for something longer this is not it, but if you want something shorter and warm this is it. I am a 2X and it fit perfect.

Love the jacket, exactly what I wanted but it is far too small. I have returned and ordered a size up and really hope it fits!Update: quickly received the jacket in a size bigger and itâs a bit of a disappointment...doesnât have the shape that the smaller one had, itâs boxy and a lot bigger than I expected. This is possibly because I had to go from an XL to an XXL. Iâm guessing that the XXL is a plus size which is cut differently. Still like the jacket because I really wanted a warm, lightweight jacket that packs down to a small bag so I can use it for travel, camping etc.
