Not as good as the original. They updated this jacked with the raglan shoulders and that was a big downgrade. It does not fit as well and does not look as nice either. I bought thsi version when my old one wore out, and I ended up returning it.

Horrible Design In The Cuffs
The sleeves are horrible! I wanted to love this jacket but the sleeve cuffs are so annoying. There is no elastic cuff but instead this uncomfortable, rigid fabric underneath the cuff. I had to return and go with a different puffer. I don’t understand why the “light” version of this has cuffs but not this one.

After I washed it, (and I did follow the laundering instructions), most of the fill shifted from the shoulders down the sleeves and body. Not sure if anyone else has had this issue, but I'm disappointed in the design as I figured this wouldn't have happened.

Good Jacket
Good jacket for fall/warm winter days. Could be a bit warmer. Can go to -25C with a hoodie jacket underneath, best for hikes and outdoor activities.

Lightweight Fall Jacket Sized Too Small
This is a very lightweight jacket. Temps around 0C to 10C (30-50 F) is the sweet spot. It's well made.
The other thing to know is sizing. Unlike what they say in the description, it does not run true to size. It feels super snug. Order one size up. I am 5'8" (172cm) and I ordered the small size because the model in the pic was wearing medium and it says he is 185cm. Boy was I wrong. It is like wearing a kids jacket.

Weight Is Wrong In The Description
I purchased this for sheep hunting. When I got it in the mail it felt way heavier and bulkier than advertised. It's about double the advertised weight. They claim 9.3oz but it is closer to 18oz. That's a pretty significant difference and "approximately" doesn't seem to be used in good faith on this one. I overall think very highly of Mountain Hardware products. I have used and trusted many of their products for military deployments, mountaineering, sheep hunting, climbing Denali etc. If they put the correct specs in the description I wouldn't have purchased it. It appears to be made well but would be better suited for beers at the bon fire after the adventure than during it. I still gave it three stars because it is well made and sturdy. I just wouldn't use it for anything that requires me carrying it in a backpack for more than a day.

Everything Great But The Armpits
Loved everything about the jacket but armpits rode high. I tried to convince myself to overlook but that uncomfortable feeling was gnawing away. Layering with a midsize performance sweater was the final straw. This jacket is made for skinny dudes. I’m 5’6, semi athletic, bought a medium. Tired of these company not finding the sweet spot. The jacket is not label as slim fit but that armpit says otherwise. Snug is fine but not allowing layering and breathing space for the armpit is not right.

Great!
Great between 35 and 50 degrees without much layering. Bought L, 6 ft, 194, 43/44 chest. The stretch makes a difference. I need to be in XL for some other MH models but then they become too long. This jacket fits perfectly and does well with warmth.

Fantastic jacket. My son LOVES it. He's gone back to NYC and looks like the chic mountain dude that he is.

Comfortable And Warm
I purchased the jacket for travel to Indiana and Ohio during the winter. Temperatures ranged between 18 and 35°. It fit well over layers and kept me comfortable. I also liked the non-shiny surface and darker gray color.

Versatile And Warm Jacket With Great Flexibility
This is a nice jacket—super versatile. I use it for night walks around the neighborhood and camping trips to the desert. It keeps me warm even on really cold nights. My favorite feature, though, is how roomy it feels. It allows plenty of flexibility, even when I layer up. This is my second one, and this time, I went for the hooded version.

Very Nice Coat.
I was very happy with this jacket. I got the medium and it’s a little tight in the chest, but my chest measurement is 43 inches. With a thermal under-layer, this coat keeps me warm down to about 32°. If it gets colder or if there’s much wind, I would wear a rain jacket on top of it.
