Love it
This coat is everything they said it was and more. I TRULY LOVE this coat! If you purchase this coat you will will love it also. I may purchade it in another color.

I love this coat!
The Chelsea by Marmot is warm and fits me perfectly. I usually wear a size small and this is a great fit. I like the length which hits just above my knee. Also, I appreciate the fact that Marmot replaced all the velcro with heavy duty snaps. The velcro usually found on down jackets/coats was damaging all my Isotoner gloves. I have worn it every day since I received it. This was my first order from Altrec and the service was superb. I will definitely be ordering from Altrec again!

Love it!
I love this coat! It is warm and windproof, supposed to be waterproof although I haven't tested it in pouring rain, it's fine in snow. I am chronically freezing, especially in Canadian winters, but this coat is toasty warm, even in the wind, subzero fahrenheit temperatures, and waiting at the skate rink. I love the fit of the hood, it really protects from very cold wind and blowing snow, but don't expect good peripheral vision with it all the way on. The length is long enough for coverage to the knees. The two outside pockets are nice and deep. A lot of older online reviews talk about velcro on sleeve cuffs being a problem, mine has snaps that work great. The belt gives it a nice touch and is attached in a way that you don't have to fuss at all with it (doesn't go around the front) I normally wear a medium, I bought this extra large to allow for a bulky layer in between when I need it, most people may want to buy one size up. I highly recommend this coat for warmth, practicality, an it looks great too!

Sleek down jacket
I purchased this jacket for my wife - who has long been complaining about her lack of a good-looking down winter coat. She's a tiny girl so I needed the XS. It fits her beautifully, is extremely warm and windproof, and doesn't turn her into the Michelin Man with all of the stitched bulges too common to down coats nowadays.

Great coat!
I am 5'4'' and have relatively small build and the size small fits me perfectly. I have not had the chance to wear this coat in the wintertime yet, but I am moving to Philadelphia soon and I have no doubt that it will work well there. I tried it on inside and I had to take it off soon after because I was overheating (go figure!) I especially like the removable fur on the hood. It took me so long to find a down jacket that was hooded yet did not have the fur on the hood. The fur has a zipper and comes off very easily. In conclusion, with the waterproof outside, this jacket is going to be everyday-wear for me in Philly. I love it!
