Great fabric feel and print, but the fit is too boxy

Patagonia Buckshot Long Sleeve Shirt - Mens
the heading really says it all. I wanted to like this shirt because I got it at such a great price but was disappointed with the fit. Perhaps it would fit someone a bit less slender than me a bit better.
Great looks and fabric, fit is a bit too snug around the waste

Patagonia Adze Vest - Men's
I wanted to be able to keep this vest, but ultimately the fit wasn't right for me. It was surprisingly snug around the waste. I am 5'8" and always wear size small, and I have a 29-30" waste. If I'm finding this tight around the waste, I can't imagine others are comfortable with the fit.
excellent pants!

Marmot Blackcomb Pant - Men's
Great fitting, versatile pants that provide all the protection you need while not limiting mobility. The fit is just right - not too baggy, not too tight.
Great comfortable boot, sized a bit large

My wife loves this boot. The materials, construction, style, etc. However, it definitely runs a bit large.
Warm, lightweight, great quality

Arc'teryx Cerium SV Hoody - Men's
As usual, Arcteryx quality is superior. Great materials, great warmth, quality etc. My only gripe with this jacket is it just seems to fit weird around the neck if you don't have the hood up (which I assume is a majority of the time for most people). The elongated, straight neck pokes up at your face even when unzipped. I'm starting to think that a drop hood would be a superior design for this sort of jacket, but haven't seen that from any other companies either.
Extremely warm and good looking jacket

Canada Goose Summit Jacket - Men's
Extremely warm jacket with enough style to be a very versatile winter jacket. It is not quite light or slim enough to be a reliable midlayer under a shell for active pursuits in extreme weather, but is slim enough that it can fit under a shell in very adverse weather for non-active pursuits. The jacket is reasonably water repellent and the hood is extremely warm (also detachable, which could help for layering). At the end of the day, this is a great outer layer for dryer cold climates.
Extremely warm, good technical piece, but not at all flattering

If you are looking for a very warm, compressible, lightweight jacket, this one will be hard to beat. I tried several offerings from other brands, and this one was really super warm. Unfortunately, I wasn't looking for a belay parka and was trying to find a very very warm everyday jacket. This was not at all fitted and simply was not flattering in the looks department. If you are looking for a midlayer or true climbing parka, this could be the right fit.

Extremely lightweight, warmer and higher loft than more popular down sweaters

Patagonia Fitz Roy Down Jacket - Mens
At the end of the day, this jacket is superior to the much more popular Down Sweater. The styling is admittedly slightly less attractive than the down sweater, but it has superior warmth and seems similar enough that this just makes more sense for someone intending to use it as a stand-alone outer layer. The jacket is not bulky by any stretch, but is not as fitted as the down sweater, so if you intend to use this piece as a mid-layer, either could work depending on your preferences. This jacket seems more versatile. I would have preferred a better elastic cuff on this jacket comparable to that on the down sweater, though I think this was a conscious decision to save weight.

Amazingly Warm Jacket with Good Fit

Review for
Canada Goose Summit Jacket - Men's
This is really a top-notch jacket. I have not yet decided if I will keep it or return it, but that has nothing to do with its quality or warmth. It is pricey, and I have been looking for an equally warm and at least semi-fitted jacket that might not be as expensive, so far to no avail. I highly recommend it to anyone who has the means to purchase it.
