Good mid-weight fleece with style.

Written on Feb 22, 2015

How to review fleece. Hmmm, this one is a bit longer in the body, blocks wind better than most, and is quite warm. Its best feature is the collar and chin liner that runs the length. This seals from drafts and helps when layering dramatically. Adds some flair too. Easy zipper to use. Leather accents are nice touch overall, but do not really contribute to function. Thumb holes in sleeves for those into that sort of thing. May help with on and off when layering, however. Improvement would be a slick liner in body and sleeves to improve on/off glide. This one is intermediate, but some fleece sticks like glue.

Big, nice coat.

The snow mantra is real coat--large, warm, and a bit bulky. Some have complained about the weight. Seems fine to me, although I have had co-workers try it on and many agree that it is to heavy for them. Bottom line, if you want light, this is not the one for you. The ruf is removable and the rear flap zippers make it nice in and out of the car. It is bulky however, and it makes it a bit more difficult to look over shoulders changing lanes and the like. One adapts to this coat, and the warmth is ample reward for the effort. The body warmth return is immediate putting it on with the sensation that it could almost misunderstood as active heating (electric vest).

No worries about being cold therefore. The last few days have been down to -9F with nothing getting through and no cold spots either.

I picked white which looks nice, but concerned about dirty salt and spilling items on it. Brushing up against the car makes for a dirty spot. Black might show this too. Great would be blaze orange or blaze camo, and I could have one for hunting! I froze last Nov in 4F weather after white tails. They are missing a niche but well-heeled market there.

Pretty nice coveralls with good wind and cold protection. Satisfied with zippers, down, fabric and finish in all ways except ruff was exceptionally thin and not as pictured. Would almost like to call canada goose to say is this tiny and thin ruff for real? Like the item except for that disappointment, especially for such a high-dollar item.
