My boyfriend bought me this jacket and pants combo for X-mas and I have been loving it. It has a really feminine form (compared to my old Patagonia getup) and has kept me warm and dry on the ski hill so far. Some of the other ladies here said they needed to size up to be able to layer up but I have found my normal size to be just perfect, even on subzero days. I am 5'9" and 135 lbs in a medium jacket and pants. The only problems I have had are that the thumb gaiters were sewn in the wrong sides so I've had to have the jacket replaced under warranty. Also, the jacket comes with button snaps so that you can connect the powder skirt to your pants so it doesn't ride up and let snow or wind get down the small of your back, but the pants don't have any sort of loops to connect them to. This seems like a simple design issue that should be addressed for a matching jacket and pants such as this, which is why I can only give it the 4 out of 5 stars. Overall though these are pretty minor problems considering how well this jacket performs for the price. I definitely recommend it.
