Nice sweater - Patagonia Down Sweater Hoody - Men's

I am a lanky 6 ft tall, 175 lbs and was torn between a med and lrg. I am kind of in between sizes.

I usually wear a large but can wear mediums in some brands. I purchased the large and glad I did. My arms are pretty long and my wingspan is probably a couple inches longer than I am tall so I needed the extra length in the arms. I would say it is a little bit smaller than a lighter down I have from marmot. The fit is much better too. Much more snug around the stomach area where a marmot has kind of a weird shape for me in a large. squash shaped kind of. The patagonia isn't like that. Much more trim fitting.

The large is a bit wider than i need but its not too bad and I am pretty critical. The length is pretty ideal. just below the waist. The jacket still looks great overall. Impressed with the looks and fit. I love a nice hood and this one is fantastic. Nice and soft when you zip it up.

Warmth, I haven't been able to test it yet but seems great for what it is. If you are someone looking for a super warm winter coat this isn't going to be it. If you want a great all around jacket for temps above freezing or a mid layer than this ones for you. It is not a thick jacket though, if you are looking for something super warm. I can understand why they call it a sweater.

Good deal from the site, but overall the jacket is still a little overpriced for what it is. patagucci'd. Fantastic down jacket though so 4/5.
