I have 84701 in Large so I figured that size would be good for me here. This product is essentially that jacket with shirt features -- button snaps on the sleeve cuffs, pockets, etc. This jacket is warm, light weight and stylish.
I really liked the style and utility of this jacket but it was a size too large. I'm 5'9" 165 lbs and always wear a medium. This jacket was almost a full size too large, so I sent the medium back.
I've had the shirt/jacket for a couple of week now and just wear it to work and client meetings. Like another reviewer, I'm seeing more feathers poking out of this garment than any other Patagonia jacket I've owned. It's a great looking alternative to a typical jacket style. I recommend it for the looks. I am, however, hesitant ... Read Moreto recommend it based on losing feathers at a high rate. Even if it doesn't affect the warmth (for the time being), it looks a bit shabby...which is a problem for a jacket I purchased for the more dressed-up style. I got it on sale, so I'm not as upset as if I had paid full price. Still, I am super surprised by the quality of this jacket. Not sure it matters, but I have the brown one. Still a committed Patagonia customer...but this one was a bit of a miss in my book.
Couldn't be happier: soft, light weight, warm, stylish
I am a huge fan of Patagonia's down jackets, particularly the Hi-Loft Down Hoody which I've had for years. I got this Silent Down Shirt (which is absolutely a jacket and not a shirt) recently and love it. As with the Hi-Loft Hoody, this jacket can keep you very warm in cold temps but I very rarely, if ever, get too hot in it. It's so... Read More soft and comfortable, looks great, and is super light weight. I highly recommend this jacket. I'm 6'1", 185lbs and the Medium fits perfectly.
We purchased it for Christmas gift. One item was missing in time for Christmas, but the customer service was great !! That's why we love this company.
Purchased as a gift for my husband. He likes it very much. The style is unique as it looks like a shirt but has the functionality of a down jacket. Warm enough, he says no need for extra layering in 30-40 degree weather. Blends in really nicely. Trendy style for the typical NYC commuter. He is happy with his purchase.
I love the overall fit of the jacket. It's warm without being too puffy.
My only gripe is with the cuffs. They are not adjustable and slide over my hands. I wish Patagonia added a second snap button on each cuff.
Words cannot really express how stoked I am on this jacket. All the soft, cozy, and functional chops of a technical piece with some casual/streetwear aesthetic. Beautiful color in the sage khaki. Signature eco and socially responsible Patagonia foundations. Perfect fit. Simply cannot lose with this piece....and I’m critical and picky as hell!
Overall the quality is great. It keeps me warm, its silent and very easy to wear. However it is a bit big and the black color is not as black as my other Patagonia jackets.
got this late in the season so not a full winter's use yet. the insulation works great; very versatile as a layer and overall; the cut of the sleeves and collar are comfortable and the pockets are adequate - would be nice to have an inside breast pocket, or zipper seam one - the only improvement to suggest
I love the warmth of this jacket and the shirt-style look, but I've never had a Patagonia down garment that lost feathers at such an alarming rate (I've had multiple Down Sweaters, a Fitz Roy Parka, and and Ultralight Down Hoody ). I'm just wearing this casually to walk the dog and to/from the car at work, and there are always feathe... Read Morers poking through the fabric. I was schooled never to pull them out, which means I'm spending way too much time trying to keep them in. Is anyone else experiencing this?
I love jackets styled after button-up shirts, so this was a no-brainer for me. Fit is on the money, it runs longer than typical Patagonia down jackets which suits tall guys well. Super cozy and the collar stands nicely when flipped for extra protection. While still lightweight like most down jackets, it isn't as light & packable as the cla... Read Moressic. This is more for casual, everyday wear.
The hand pockets are well-placed and very spacious. If I'm being nitpicky, an interior pocket & a zipper underneath the snap buttons would be a nice touch for full insulation when needed. But that's hardly necessary where I live, so I'm stoked. Warms me up proper after a winter surf on a cold day & looks sharp. I'll be wearing this for years.
Great retro styling and perfect within the bulk.
As for Matt’s review, it naive to think it’s a “shirt” but rather the style resembles a shirt. Silly people.
This garment is very nice, but it is a jacket, not a shirt. A down “shirt” would be rather thin, like a shirt, even down filled, and appropriate to have on under a jacket. This “shirt” is very puffy, bulky, and runs quite large. Putting a jacket over this “shirt” would be ridiculous. I love the products but just call this one a jacket with front po... Read Moreckets.
