I'm 128lbs, 5'2", athletic body type and I ordered a size small. I usually get small in everything and this jacket fit me like an oversized medium. The sleeves covered my hands entirely, but they do have the velcro on the wrists so it's a quick fix, if the bunching of the fabric on your arms doesn't bother you. The powder skirt fit loosely on its tightest button option, but the outside of the jacket also has the elastic cords to synch the bottom. The hood did fit over my helmet which was nice, it does have a wonderfully warm feel to it, there's an inside zippered pocket which I did appreciate, but I'll be returning this one for a different option.
The color was great, but not impressed with the zippers. The pocket zippers are too small and are hard to unzip even with no gloves on. The jacket zipper has a layer covering it and was impossible to zip up. I get wanting to keep air and moisture out but the execution was just wrong.
Great coat, tough outer shell, and warm insulation. Used for a variety of activities, skiing, snowmobiling, ice fishing, and daily use. Recommend
Great color and warmth. Needs inside chest pocket.
