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

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!

This coat ticks all the boxes I needed it to. It's warm enough for most late Fall to early Spring days, and big enough that I can slip a sweater or vest on under it if I need a little more warmth. The only time I didn't wear it this winter was the 5-6 days it got below freezing. The shape of the coat and the pattern of the quilting is flattering. It's not a big puffy thing--I have enough natural puffing of my own--don't need anymore!!I love the pockets! They zip closed, and hold my phone, keys, gloves, etc. PLUS the inside pocket (which also zips) is great for my wallet. No purse needed! The two-way zipper is wonderful--unzipping from the bottom when I'm sitting/driving is helpful.Also love that the hood doesn't have that fake fur that usually looks like road kill! And the hood isn't a big floppy thing that keeps falling down. I do wish it had a snap or button to hold it a bit snugger, but the zipping it all the way up helps. And I often have a knit hat on when it's cold, so that helps.It washes in the washing machine beautifully--cold wash, delicate cycle, and it hang dries pretty fast. It's not waterproof, but water resistant. Once or twice I got caught in heavy rain and got soaked, but for light to moderate rain/snow it's OK. And, as I said, it dries fast.Bought this last year, and when it went on sale the end of the season I bought another, just in case something happened to the first one. Now it's on sale again and I'm so tempted to buy a third just in case it's no longer available! I've never had a coat I was so happy with!!

It doesnt fit well around the back--bags out above my behind. I will tailor it. I like that it is warm and light. Would buy it again if it cam in a puce or pale lilac color.

New Review. I was so happy with this coat last year, decided to get a second color during Prime Days this year. Same size and length, different color. It does not fit. It is so out of proportion, a size down probably would not even zip up, and a size up would probably slide off my shoulders. I don’t have time to keep trying all the sizes (printed size tables are both absolutely incorrect), then sending them back. Guess I’ll look for a second coat elsewhere.Original Review: I hesitated buying this jacket. Finally decided to go for it, but ordered the Medium. Fit beautifully if I wore only short sleeve tee’s under it, but decided to return and go with the Large. It is flattering, lightweight but pretty warm. I live in the southeast. A cold day here is usually 30’s/40’s, and this jacket handles that with no problem. I love it for walking my dog because it is lightweight. I don’t feel like I’m carrying 10 extra pounds. It has a very feminine, flattering fit. I ordered the gray in the shorter length which comes to mid-thigh (I’m 5’4”). The last thing I also like is that the zipper is two way. I usually hate driving in winter coats because they bunch up around the torso, but I can unzip this coat at the bottom so it doesn’t do that.If you have any doubts about this jacket, don’t hesitate to try it!

The puffer coat is great, light weight, compact, warm and a nice length. I love the double zipper. It does fit small across the chest and abdomen. For most of my clothes I take a large but I needed an XL for this jacket.

I have hard time fi ding my size so when i saw this jacket i got it right away. Love it. It is very light, warm and size fit as it should.

Beautiful jacket but sizes off. Ordered as per size chart but it was too snug.

This jacket was exactly as described; light and warm and the fit is accurate.

This is a very nice jacket. I have not worn it outside yet but it’s built much nicer than I expected. It’s going to get lots of use. I ordered a 3x after reading some reviews. Glad I did I’m normally a 1x or 2x but there is plenty of room for a sweater underneath
