I'm from Arizona now living in Chicago so wintertime literally hurts..I purchased this jacket and what a difference it's so warm. Add a layer under and it can withstand below zero with wind. I'm no longer afraid of the cold. The fit is perfect. It's also not over stuffed feeling all big and puffy. Best of all I purchased it for $100 right here on Amazon Prime compared to $200 to $300 elsewhere.  Now I'm looking for a different coat to add to my wardrobe because this coat can be to warm on days when temps are around 40.
