I have searched for, bought and tried many other high-end company down coats.  This is the warmest coat of them all. The down coat is so light and you actually can move in it.  I am a preschool teacher who stands outside for hours during the winter months.  I am so warm and in-style while wearing my Mountain Hardwear Downtown Coat.  I am petite, four feet eleven inches, 30 inch waist and a double D chest.  The Large size is slightly roomy allowing for real clothes to be worn underneath.  The top-down, button-up zipper is key.  I typically purchase TNF brand for outside gear.  Having bought and tried numerous versions of their style of the Downtown Down Coat just does not compare.  Theirs made me cold, felt like armor and just was not worth the $300 price tag.  So happy that I stepped outside the TNF box and bought a Mountain Hardwear Coat.  Hope your as happy with your gear as I am.  Cannot wait to purchase more Mountain Hardwear brand gear.
