Yeah it was in the 60’s and windy where I am and I wore it taking the garbage out and I started heating up pretty fast haha. Should be perfect for the Oregon Coast Range these next two weekends

I have been out of town so I wasn't able to try mine on until late last night. I am about 163lbs and 5'8.5" and purchased a medium. Like some reviews have said it does runa bit tight through the shoulders. Almost too tight, but not quite. Hoping I don't shrink it or gain more weight! This was with one regular t-shirt underneath. However, arm length, torso length, and torso width were all spot on. I think I large would definitely fit better through my shoulders, but I think everything else would then have been too big. I do want it to be tight as my plan is to run a bigger jacket or rain coat over it. Just my 2 cents.

Received mine the other day and it fits great - size large, 5'8" / 175 pounds. Quality is outstanding and most importantly it functions perfectly. Hope this helps.

Note: if the sizing isn't perfect, don't be hesitant about exchanging sizes as their customer service is excellent.

How’s everyone liking this jacket? How warm? Weight?
Loving it! I wore it in in mid/high 30's up to mid 40's with wind and driving rain. I was cozy while sitting in that nastiness or hanging around camp at night. I had to shed it on the move otherwise I'd cook - I would confidently wear it in colder temps. The water resistance was also very nice, and when the rain got too nasty I just threw my Jupiter over it; it was a great system!

It's very light but I'm not very experienced with puffies, I think you run into the same trade offs vs down. But it seems pretty dang light to me, I just wish it took up a little less room in my pack.

I think at that sale price it's almost a no-brainer especially if you're already invested in Kryptek's system. My wife laughs at me when I wear it in my home office (it can get chilly in there, ok!!) because it's so dang comfy.

Can anyone comment on the warmth/thickness of this compared to the eddie bauer jackets?

These are great jackets at the clearance price. I have used mine a lot over the last few winters. It doesn’t breathe that great, but generally I am using it for late season cow tags or winter rabbit hunting, or late deer rifle tags. For me, it’s a bit bulky for my backpacking hunting trips, but it’s great for later season stuff where it’s especially cold.

As a few people mentioned it runs a tad small in the chest than other jackets. Arms and torso perfect. I put this into a compression storage sack and it is a out a finger width by 10x13.5 inches
