XPLSV from United States, CO Public Profile

I tried several of the Fjallraven parkas and went with this now discontinued Kyl model. The features I liked on this one that not all of the others had include the inner sleeve at the cuff (keeps out drafts), the side access hand warmer pockets (not all models have this), the design of the inner pockets where I store my gloves once I come inside, and finally, the sections with the added fleece lining (particularly the hood and neck areas). While the zipper is on the opposite side from my other jackets, I quickly adapted to it. The faux fur on the hood seems rather cheap compared to the rest of the parka, but I have found many genuine fur options on Etsy that can be used as a replacement. I know most people find the sizes to run large, but I have found the opposite to be true. I am 6' 3" and 217 pounds and normally wear a size XL, but across four different Fjallraven parkas, I found the XXL to be a great fit. The XXL is none too large in the body and I find the sleeve length to fit much better than the slightly tight fitting XL.
