Outdoor Ventures Women's Maryan Hooded Ultra Lightweight Warm Thermolite Long Puffer Coat

I ordered 2 jackets with the plan to keep the one that fit best and seemed the best quality. This one won. It was packed well, fit perfectly, is reasonably warm, flattering and true to size. I am usually a size 2 at 5'2" and 105 lbs. The fitted style is slimming but there is room for a sweater underneath. I like the cuffed sleeves and hood, and am happy with the versatile navy blue color. This coat was a little shorter than the other one I tried, which works for me because I am petite. It's hard to find XS sizes on Amazon so this is good find. I can't speak for the zipper because I haven't worn it yet, I am really hoping it holds up.

The media could not be loaded. First, this is a beautiful jacket. I have the longer one though I had so much trouble deciding between the two, I may buy the shorter one in a different color if this proves to be warm enough for Michigan winters. The herringbone pattern of the puffs seems to be unique to this coat at this time and is one of the most flattering "v shaped" silhouettes one could wish for - especially in a winter coat. A puffer, no less! I do not like the look of most puffer jackets. The puffs all go straight across which makes your body look wider. Not this coat~! The gorgeous cascading v cuts your figure even if you aren't "cut". My body shape in this coat resembles (a much larger) Marilyn Monroe hourglass shape. I'm still losing weight (fasting and keto) and will probably buy smaller sizes if they keep selling these.Sizing: Amazon suggested a 3x for me, which is not available and would have been too large. My current measurements are 48"-44"-50" and the seller recommended which fits perfectly:Size: XX-Large | Color: （runs Large. Order Size Down) Ink Blue(shiny)-avg.36" Long LengthThe sleeves are very, very long. I have shorter arms and need blocks in yoga for some poses, too, though. I also don't always wear gloves, so really appreciate the longer sleeves. They can be pushed up a bit a la '80's or even rolled up.The hood is delightful. It truly blocks the wind and I was able to pull it over my ears and go without my constant ear muffs. Huge plus! It also is very light and doesn't get behind your neck or bother you when it's down.Quality on this is outstanding. This is one of the best zippers I've seen on a coat. It has no hanging threads or threats of coming apart any time soon! Again, the style is just fantastic, too! It would be nice if the pockets were fully lined for they are a bit rough on one side, but that's nitpicking! Compare the price of this coat to others in its class with far inferior styling and you'll have it in your cart before you know it!I will update this to address warmth as the season changes. I know people always say that and don't, but I do. lol Hope this helps!Lightweight. Extremely lightweight. I'm kind of skeptical that it will keep me warm during a Michigan winter, but like a review from Minnesota, we shall see and even if it's only for Fall and Spring, it's a beautiful jacket. I will not return it. I am hoping the technology mentioned works. I use an NIR light therapy and it's magical, so I am very hopeful.Update: this cost has been surprisingly warm during 20 below zero 50 mph winds. I won’t say it encouraged me to camp in the backyard, but going from house to car and running my dog in the backyard was doable! Whatever this technology is, it’s amazing because you can wear this inside the store and also not get hot. I don’t know if it’s warm enough to walk to school, etc outside longer than like 10-15 minutes, but it’s performing better than I expected.2nd Update: My measurements are now basically 45" - 39"- 45" - this coat still fits when I roll the sleeves a bit and it's very roomy. I'm going to buy another one in either Teal or Olive and thinking about the shorter style for the new coat. Looks like the sizing will be different for Olive than Teal. This Ink Blue is a terrific color and still looks and functions fantastically after almost 1 yr. Excellent wind blocking capabilities!

I love it because it’s light weight ,keeps warm, good quality but only what I would suggest to make a length bit longer to cover knees as I have arthritis it would be perfect

This is the best coat I have ever owned. I wear it in Fall, Winter, and Spring. It keeps me warm, dry, and happy in temperatures from -5 to 50 Fahrenheit. I layer with wool undies and polar fleece on the coldest days while walking my dog for an hour every morning, no matter the temperature. I buy the L because I need room to layer, and I don’t like a tight feel. I weigh 130 Lbs and am 5’6” tall with a straight up-and-down build. This coat is superior quality and a steel for the money, and I love it so much that I now own two of them. I get a lot of complement. Buy one and see for yourself.

Warm, versatile definitely a multi-season packable coat that keeps its shape and style. Cut and design is flattering. Fits well.

This jacket is everything I've been looking for in an everyday coat but didn't know. It's super comfortable, and the hood is handy when I take the dog out in the snow. The zipper is super sturdy and easy to use. I bought it to take on a trip back east in January so it didn't take up too much room packing for the week. I probably wouldn't choose to wear it if I was going to spend a lot of time out in the dead of winter, but it's perfect to take on errands and wear in the car because it's not bulky. It's my 1st choice to grab when heading outside. Wish I bought it much sooner. It's somewhat tapered so you don't look like a sausage. I'm tall so I'm sure that helps with the overall line.

I love this coat, the look, the fit, the length that keeps your legs warm, but it is very difficult to zip when you're wearing it. The gauge of the zipper is too small, and in my coat, the lead into the zipper is curved (malformed), and the zipper is difficult to get started. On a couple of occasions it has caught the fabric while being zipped up. I am considering having a better zipper put in because I like the coat that much..I finally did discover the small inside zipper pocket where my phone can be kept. I wish it had an inner pocket on the other side as well. The pocket is well placed in the chest area, since it can be reached by pulling the main zipper down only a short way..I like the hood because it is not gigantic, so when you are wearing it you can actually turn your head without burying your face in it..I would give five stars except for the zipper problem. It's important enough that I have to downrate it to a three star.

Very nice coat, it is very light and easy to wear over other clothes. I did not give it a 5 because it does not do well in rain. Definitely need layers in colder weather. But, for TN weather nice! Winter Europe, not as good.
