What Jacket are you wearing today....
...and is it keeping you warm?
Figured today was a good day to test out those winter jackets!!
I just received a patagonia jacket in the mail that I had ordered from zappos and while the fit seems very tight I am not sure about the heat index - I walked to my mailbox and then to my neighbors house and I was still shaking with the cold - maybe its just me.
So looking for feedback on winter jackets today!!
TIA

I am wearing a fleece jacket with a sweatshirt underneath. I have not dug out my winter jacket yet.

Re: What Jacket are you wearing today....
For work I don't wear puffy coats or anything like that with my dress clothes. So I'm in a wool Michael Kors dress coat that is only marginally warm.
If I was home today, I'd be running around in my LL Bean Ultralight 850 down jacket. That baby is WARM! Much higher down fill and heat index than the Northfaces- for less money too

Re: What Jacket are you wearing today....
I'm wearing my LL Bean microsuede quilted coat...its new; I ordered it back in the fall and have only worn it a handful of times.
Gotta say, the only part of me that was cold this morning was my face. Love this coat!

Re: What Jacket are you wearing today....
Thank you!! Do you think the LL bean jackets fit true to size? I find the patagonia is fitting slightly small.

I have a puffy Calvin Klein coat.. it's basically my only option anyway since I'm pregnant. I did wear a long sleeved shirt and a sweater underneath as well.

North Face Apex
It's a good jacket.
I cannot wear puffy jackets - hate the way they feel and look on me.

Calvin Klein goose down coat, it's slight puffer looking. It's warm but the feathers are coming out. Looks like I got attacked by a Flock of Segals!
Going to get a North face thermoball in a week or two.

I feel like they do as well. Mine is size small and I'm wearing a thick sweater today and I don't feel like it's too tight.
The sleeves are a little long but I didn't get it in petite...I prefer my sleeves on my winter coats to be a little long because I HATE the feeling of cold air or snow on my wrists.

Re: What Jacket are you wearing today....
Didn't go out today but if I did, I would wear either my Lands End puffy jacket or Northface. I haven't tested out the Northface yet in weather this cold but the Lands End is my warmest jacket. I wear it with everything and don't care what I look like as I am the warmest around

I have a puffy coat from the Gap that I wore this morning to walk the dog. Wore that with an undershirt, long sleeved shirt and scarf and was sweating when I got back after 40 mins. I have to find some heavy legging though cause my legs were freezing.

I wore a MK mid thigh puffer today with just a 1/4 sleeve blouse while walking to pick up my kids, and I was cold.

Canada Goose but if you dont want a hefty price tag then LL Bean. I had a jacket from them that i wore for years. It held up amazingly welland kept me super warm.

A parka from Pea in the Pod that was not cheap but apparently is not warm either! I miss my North Face but sadly, it won't close anymore over my belly!
