Great fit, perfect for moderate cold
I'm a true medium and this jacket fits me perfectly. It's not too baggy and has more of a tailored fit, though I wouldn't call it slim. It's perfect for as cold as it gets here in Southern California, but you would probably want something heavier for really cold weather. Or at least some serious sweater and/or thermal beneath.
SUPER LIGHT AND SUPER WARM JACKET.
This jacket is super light and super warm. It's so lightweight that you hardly even notice you're wearing it yet it's so warm that it'll make you sweat unless it's more than just slightly cold. Seems to be typical high quality Outdoor Research construction. Like it a-lot.
A Great Insulating Layer
Bought it for everyday use under a rain shell, as well as an extra layer to throw in a pack for skiing. Only complaint - 0 pit zips. It has been great on the 1st purpose and I think it will be great for the 2nd. Well built, perfect amount of insulation, and light like it isn't there. The fleece around the collar is nice, and the shell material sheds light rain and wind (and I know light rain in Seattle). It is a touch shinier than the web picture makes it appear. The velcro at the wrists is great (TNF's Redpoint jacket has elastic). I am 6'2" and 190 lbs and the L is just a hair short in the arms (but less so than a lot of jackets - I have ape-ish arms). Thanks OR!
So Far So Good
Wow! Was kind of skeptical about the primaloft "insulating when wet" theory. Its true! Took this jacket out on the boat last week and it was chilly out. Repeatedly ran over some big wakes in my 13ft Boston Whaler and the Neoplume Jacket got soaked after a while. I thought for sure I was about to freeze my butt off, but it kept me warm all day. I was shocked. Next test for this jacket is the AT! So far 5 stars! Awesome insulation!
Great Jacket
This jacket is very warm and very nice looking. It is not too puffy for an insulated jacket, it's great for around town as well as under a shell skiing. It packs well and the DWR finish helps keep light rain and snow from penetrating the jacket. I am very broad shouldered and the XL fits perfectly.
