Sizing Notes
Measurements are stated in inches unless otherwise indicated. Size chart values represent body measurements, not garment measurements.
SHORT: Some pants are available in short sizes, which generally means an inseam that is 2.5 inches shorter than regular sizes.
TALL: Some pants, shirts, jackets and parkas are available in tall sizes, which generally means an inseam that is 3 inches longer and a rise that is 1 inch longer, a shirt or jacket body that is 2 inches longer, a parka body that is 2.5 inches longer and sleeves that are 2.5 inches longer than regular sizes.
Capri or cropped pants have an intentionally shorter inseam—reference the technical specs instead of this chart.
Inseam is measured to the floor.

Light weight, heavyweight performance
Yes , I recommend this product
This jacket has exceeded my expectations. It's not the warmest model available in REI's lineup, but I've worn in multiple times in sub-freezing temperatures and haven't felt cold yet. The wind protection is excellent. This weekend I was outside in 18F temperatures with a 24 mph wind gusting to 40. I felt the wind through my wool gloves, through my denim jeans but not all all through the Microtek. I can't believe it's so light yet so strong against the elements.

Great Winter Jacket
Yes , I recommend this product
Extremely light and warm! Live in New England and have work nothing but a t-shirt or flannel under this jacket and was not cold at all in 10 degree weather. Fit is great, true to size, not too tight on the chest or arms. I am 5’7” 175 pounds with a wide chest and this still fits great (not too long on sleeves or waist) and allows for great mobility. Also not nearly as puffy looking as most of these style jackets which I love! Buy it and you will not regret it!

Lightweight & versatile for multiple seasons
Yes , I recommend this product
I have several REI jackets and each one has a specific purpose when I am outside, hiking, climbing, biking and camping. This REI Microtrek Insulated jacket is the perfect blend for hiking in my nearby park of Acadia. It is lightweight, warm and I am also using it for early morning rides on my mountain bike. An extremely versatile jacket.

Great fit, lightweight, warm
Yes , I recommend this product
Great addition to my winter hiking gear. Lightweight and warm, paired with a base layer and fleece mid layer this offered plenty of warmth for Ohio winter trails as low as 15 degrees. Great pockets too. Fits true to size plus a little to fit bulky under layers if needed.

Great everyday winter jacket
Yes , I recommend this product
Only had it a few weeks now so can't speak to long term durability. But it currently is a very nice jacket. Not too thick and puffy but also warm. Pretty lightweight with lots of pocket space. Been very happy with it so far.
