I work in one of the toughest environments on earth - driving zodiacs in Antarctica. It is nearly impossible to find a good jacket that will work well in these very cold and wet conditions, but this parka is perfect. It is totally waterproof and since I got a size larger than I would normally would, it fits over my down parka with ease, but giving me plenty of room to maneuver while working.

I would recommend this product.

The fit of this shell is perfect! I wear a 48 jacket and ordered an XL. The fit is perfect to layer under or be worn alone (on me).

I'm 6'4" and 220 pounds (medium build) so I often find that xl is large enough but the sleeves are too short. Not so with any MH products. Sizing is the best of all the big names in my opinion.

It's also slightly longer than my under layers which provides a bit more protection.

Performance of this shell is also top notch. Water rolls right off, even in high wind. The pit zips are nice too for when really active. But it breathes so well I've only used it when I'm really working hard.

I've been out in temps in the teens, high wind, and high humidity with only a base layer and micro-stretch fleece (both MH of course) under this shell and I was toasty.

This also layers nicely with a compressor jacket underneath. Great design and features.

I would recommend this product.

Great fit, not heavy for normal activities. Nice material, right amount of pockets. Only thing I did not like was how the hood rolls up and is stored, would be nice if it rolled up smaller into the collar.Otherwise a perfect companion to any outdoor activity.

Solid Outer Shell

This shell is a solid outer layer jacket for most pursuits. It is one of the longer MHW jackets, and by far the roomiest. On a super cold expedition or a freezing day on the mountain, being able to comfortably fit several layers underneath this parka is a huge benefit. The wrists have nice wide openings allowing for great versatility. The mesh lining is very loose, however once this parka is on, it seems to breath really well with the DryQ Elite laminate. Definitely size down unless your putting on some major layers underneath.

Recently purchased a Mountain Hardware soft shell jacket in small for one of the small men in my life. It was such a hit that I bought this parka, but sadly, it is way too big. I don't know what the excuse is for the inconsistencies in sizes. There are very few manufacturers who make small clothing for men and I thought Mountain Hardware was my go-to- place. I am sure that the parka has many fine qualities, but if it is too big, it is useless for our purposes.

This is a great outside layer to add to your system! Tough outer that is water proof AND breathable so you don't get soaked from your perspiration. I use it with various layers under it or just as a shell.
