New to Outdoor Research
Love this jacket. It's warm, while being lightweight. Especially love the color I purchased! I also purchased same jacket in Men's....for my husband. He doesn't get it until his birthday...but I know he will love it.

The most amazing jacket I have ever owned
I got this in the mail 5 months ago and I have worn this ski touring, at bars, cafes, libraries, in class, at the resort, in 0 F, 20 F, at the mall, in the park, at the beach, biking in town, at the climbing gym, around the house, in the rain, in the mist, in a cloud, in the sun, in the wind, in a snowstorm (with an outer shell).... Safe to say that I have spent more time in this jacket than in any other outerwear since I received it in the mail. It's comfortable, fits super well (XS, athletic build, 5'0", sort of pear-shaped, ape index is -1"). I feel like I have tested this jacket in many ways. I have stuffed it vigorously into my touring backpack and also into multiple stuff sacks. The zipper looks like it will last a long time. The material is very durable. It is so incredibly comfortable and looks pretty darn good with anything I choose to wear it with. Great job, OR. I hope you keep making this jacket!!

Disappointed about lack of durability
I really wanted to replace my MEC uplink hoody that had lasted me a solid 8 years of intense hard-on-my-gear adventuring (I ice climbed, rock climbed, biked in rain and snow, travelled and sleep in this puffy for 8 full years with only a few holes and 2 zipper repairs). I wanted something that did the same job but was honestly a bit better looking than the infamous MEC puffy. This was pretty warm and lightweight, and it did look a lot better so I could wear it all the time in the city too or bring it travelling. However after 6 months of city living and only a few mild adventures (mostly walks in the woods lately), there are so many holes in this puffy that I don't even wear it anymore because it looks pretty raggedy. The durability seems poor enough that it doesn't seem worth repairing all of the holes. I really liked this until I realized it would not work for what I was hoping it would. I've since heard of other people who have repeated the same thing about this jacket. Unfortunate!!

Love it! Will buy more if they come up with new colors
The fit is perfect and is super warm for how light it is. I love the color and how the sleeves go a little over my hands. I'm planning on wearing this on the slopes on sunny days. The color is just as pictured. For reference, I got size XS and I'm 5'4 115lbs.

Warm and Light
The weight is the first thing you'll notice when you pick up this gem of a hoodie. Deceptively light, you'd think it couldn't possibly provide much warmth. You'd be dead wrong. This hoodie punches way above its weight class when it comes to keeping cold and wind at bay. I was amazed that such a lightweight layer could feel so cozy and protective. The fit is perfection - trim but not tight. I would say that the sizing chart is on point. It hugs your body just so to trap heat while giving you full freedom of movement. The cuffs and hem provide a nice snug seal to prevent heat loss and cold air infiltration. Whether I'm lounging around the house, a campfire or taking a brisk autumn hike, the comfort is perfect. Bottom line - amazing warmth and wind resistance for the weight. If you want max comfort with minimum weight, grab this hoodie (or jacket version) right now.

Super comfy
Like all things OR, the quality is top notch. This is very similar in feel to the weight of a Patagonia nano puff which has been a favorite for years. Love how light, yet warm it is.

Yes
I use the jacket for everyday around town, ski jacket over a warm mid layer. Super comfortable but the fabric is a bit thin and I am hard on my clothing so not a durable fabric for my lifestyle. I also have the Shadow hoody jacket and that is much more durable and quite warm too.

Fits great, perfect top layer
Cuts the wind and is perfect for a chilly day by itself or as a top layer! Recommend!

New go-to Jacket
Great coat that is perfect for chilly fall days with just a long sleeve base layer. If it's colder, this jacket will work fine with a thicker base layer. I have used it down to 20 degrees while hiking with a pack and was hot. Actually took the jacket off and went with just my long sleeve base layer. Jacket is packable and looks great as a casual outerwear piece. Has a looser fit than some other puffys but this is good for layering. Glad I bought this, it's my go-to.

Beautiful & Warm
This is a beautiful jacket with the same quality always delivered from OR. I have so many different coats and jackets. This is great, in our area, for spring, summer and fall. Warm enough to wear for short trips out in the winter. It is great becuase its fashionable and warm but not bulky.
