I'am a year long dedicated Patagonia customer but this is my very first down jacket. Great choice, very warm and light so it can easily fit into luggage or daypack. It runs small, I am most likely right in between size S and M, decided to go with S. Which means I can't wear a sweater underneath.
I love how compact this coat becomes in a suitcase. Great arm length and hip length. HOWEVER...I am busty and this was a bit too tight. Also, doesn't keep you warm or dry in the rain so when I got caught in the rain while hiking, I got wet!! Hoody too tight too.
Hey there, thanks for taking the time to write this review! Over the past several years, we've begun to expand our sizes to make our products more accessible, so we've passed this feedback along to our Design Team. Though it has a DWR finish, which provides some water resistance, the Down Sweater Hoody is not intended to keep you fully dry and warm in the rain. When wet, down insulation clumps which results in being unable to perform properly. You could either consider purchasing a synthetic alternative, such as the [Macro Puff Hoody](https://www.patagonia.com/product/womens-macro-puff-hoody/80116.html?dwvar_80116_color=STBL) or a Waterproof Shell to go over your Down Sweater Hoody.

Kept me warm while I was on location in Utah.
The whole experience was amazing. I ordered online and received my items within a week. I needed my jacket for work and was so glad I made the purchase. Worth every penny!
This beauty is lightweight but substantial, hood pivotal for the Colorado wind gusts that come out of nowhere. Super-comfy, beautifully crafted and just a joy to wear.
Love my jacket. Does run small, a little narrow around the hips. Normally I were a medium but couldnt fit comfortably so went for the large. Fit great with room for layers
Love this light warm comfortable coat. It is well made and the service of the company is GREAT!! I needed it to exchange for another size and even it was after weeks when I ordered it, it was no problem at all! Thank you so much.
I absolutely love this jacket. It is something I can wear all year round, it looks good with everything, and the customer service at Patagonia is amazing.
Great to people, planet, and animals.
Patagonia changed their sizing a couple of years ago in jackets. I used to always be a large and know the large is too big and medium too small if I want a layer underneath. But love the warmth of this coat
This jacket has so far proven to be wonderfully warm and cozy, the tiniest bit tight in the shoulders when wearing a sweater underneath, but besides that, a perfect fit!
I used to have a Patagonia down sweater that came out in fall 2020 in a medium. It was perfect fit, I did find myself needing a hoody at times and decided to try to hoody version. This version had extremely long sleeves, smelled odd when the jacket was squeezed, the zipper would get stuck around the collar, and it was short from the length. Weird a... Read Morend odd fit. I returned it. I did go to the store and tried on a small, but it was still odd fitting. I thought it would be like the down sweater but I was wrong.

Worth it
I've never spent so much money on a coat, but I decided to invest in this company because I want the transparency they offer. I'd say it was worth it overall.

The navy blue is a great color and I look forward to wearing this coat for the next however many years!
The most amazing jacket that I own . Very warm , ultralight , not bulky at all . Completely free to move . I bought a large so I could wear layers underneath and its a perfect fit for this purpose.

This sweater is a bit tight in the shoulders and hips. Also, the color was much pinker than on the website. More like raspberry sorbet. Love the micro fleece inside the upper zipper area. Would love thumb loops to keep hold of sleeves while layering. Very snuggly!
I have had the male version of this garment for two years. It is a great three season jacket. I love it. I bought this one for my wife. She loves it, too.
And for me, the new cut makes it impossible to wear a fleece layer underneath. Im not worried about going up a size, but when I go up a size, the under arms and up low and ultimately, oddly enough, constricting.
The first Patagonia down sweater I bought is a medium and it fits me perfectly; I think I bought that 15 years ago.
The newer versions are cut differently: I think the big difference perhaps is that there is a side panel now in the womens versions?

I bought this as a gift for my wife because of my own previous Patagonia experience--it's high quality, the best warranty, and helping protect our planet.

This jacket is incredibly versatile. It is an attractive jacket that can be worn on a cold evening out. It is also perfect for outdoor adventures.

My husband is all about Patagonia. First time buyer and I am So happy. I was Nervous paying so much but it is warm enough for Idaho weather. I can Be warm in like 32 degree weather and winds. Im shocked how warm it keeps me. Good looking jacket too.
This is my second coat, I wore the first one out. I love their packable a d this one seems a little longer on the waste that the first one I bought many years ago.....Glad to see more colors offered. I get tired of the black or the blue all the time.
I've been wanting this jacket for a while and finally splurged and am so happy I did. The fit is perfect, it is lightweight yet very warm. The hood is very comfortable. The only improvement I would suggest is an additional top slot (no zipper) inside pocket on the right side. That would make this the PERFECT jacket.
I've become obsessed with all Patagonia products, and this is my latest jacket addition. It was the Catalan Coral color, and I LOVE it!

I was struggling to decide what kind of down jacket to buy at a reasonable price point. I wanted something warm that I could layer. I ordered this along with the Silent Down.

I can comfortable hike in 25 degree weather with a simple baselayer underneath and have total upper body mobility. I wish it came in more interesting colors (I avoid any light shade I think will stain easily), but the navy is a really beautiful shade of blue.
I love this new puffer jacket. I put on 15 lbs and couldn't fit into my Moncler. Though F that. So, I decided to try a Pantagonia. It's lighter and so much more comfortable than my other coat that I still love. Best, I can get puffy sweaters under it. Also stylish. Easy zip. And if you pull the zipper up, it serves as a fast face mask.
Great fit and construction. Could be a little warmer.
Great coat and i love the hood. But i don't think this jacket is as warm as the goose down version and could use just a touch more insulation, but i wanted something to keep me warm when wet.
Thanks for taking the time to write a product review! If you're looking for a jacket to keep you warm even when wet, we'd recommend going for synthetic insulation rather than down insulation. [The Macro Puff Hoody](https://www.patagonia.com/product/womens-macro-puff-hoody/80116.html?dwvar_80116_color=STBL) is a good option and will keep you warm when wet. If you're looking for a similar (down) style, just warmer, you could check out the Hi-Loft Down Hoody and layer a waterproof shell over it for wetter conditions. We hope this helps!

Yes the code is warm
The coat I had it without a hood. Love the coat so much I bought it again with a hood though. Cant say enough about the jacket it keeps me warm. Light weight comfortable all I can say Patagonia rocks.
I purchased for my gf, in FL. She loves it for the 40 degree weather down here and layering in 0 degrees at my camp in Central NYS. Now I got mine back.
This is truly a sweater more than a jacket but awesome and warm enough most of the time. I purchased a vest to go underneath and that should take care of the warm. It has an wonderful feel and can fit into almost anything. It came in an envelope. I do love it.
I bought this for my girlfriend for Christmas and she loves it. We live in UT where the high temps in the winter are sometimes in the 20s everyday and this has been great for walking our dog and staying warm when outside.

Warm. Enough room for layers if you need. Sleeve length of fabulous and long when you bend elbows. I love the soft interior material around neck, chin when zipper. Seems even warmer.

This jacket is perfect for wearing under a shell jacket snowboarding on cold days. I wear it alone walking the dogs and for every day cold weather. I also wear it inside at work because it is pretty cold in there. I love how it weighs next to nothing and is so comfortable to wear. The wind doesn't come through it either.
I am really disappointed to have to write a bad review for this jacket. I had a down sweater from Patagonia about 5 years ago and never had this issue with it -- but as soon as I wear this jacket outside, it starts to smell like a wet cat. This is not exposing it to moisture, and there is no smell when it is hanging in the closet, but as soon as it... Read More is outdoors, it's terrible. My family is commenting on it. I called Patagonia and they sent me a replacement, and the replacement does the same thing! I've never had a jacket do this, and I'm not quite sure what is going on here. I thought the issue might go away after a few weeks, but it didn't, and the smell hangs on my clothes after I take the jacket off. If not for this issue, it would be a fabulous coat, but I really can't live with the smell.
We're so sorry to hear that you've been experiencing some issues with smell on your Down Sweater Hoody!

This jacket is great looking and warm. However, I found the pockets to be really problematic - theyre very shallow and my hands and phone dont entirely fit. Im sending this back for something else.
I tried this out as a stand-alone jacket over a long-sleeved shirt on a cool night in San Francisco with a slight cold wind, and felt very cold.

The fit is normal - fine with a shirt or medium-weight sweater. Not bulky at all, but very warm. Warmer than the nano puff in the same style which I've had for years. Love it.
I have an older version of this jacket and I love the way the hood really cinches down, so when I'm riding my bike to work my head stays warm and out of the wind.

I was really wanting something warm yet comfortable. This thing is so comfortable that I find myself wearing it at my desk instead of a blanket.

Read More It is just long enough that the rain didn't go into places that I didn't want it to, which I have found to be true of other jackets at my height (5'8"). Additionally, I ordered this a little bigger, a large, so I can wear a sweater and fold my arms in front of me without it being tight around my shoulders. It was a great decision. The shape still is flattering at a larger size. So happy about this purchase, thank you!
I had such a hard time finding a jacket with longer sleeve length . But this jacket definitely fits the bill.

The main reason I sent this back was because of the way the jacket flipped off my backside like a duckbill. It runs longer than the old style and tighter in the chest and huge in the belly. The old diamond quilt pattern fit me the best. Wish they would go back to that fit.
I am a back country ski guide in Wyoming. I needed a jacket that would be breathable and incredibly warm. I was able to wear this in -20F conditions while skiing. Giving me the ability to work and not become too hot. I would layer this with a thinner Patagonia jacket and a thin water resistant shell. Overall great product.
This coat is simply perfect. Really warm and incredibly comfortable. My go-to layer during the winter in the Pacific Northwest, whether on hikes, waiting for the bus on my commute, or going out for the evening, this coat is what I grab from the rack every time.
I definitely really like Patagonia down and especially it's warranty/Worn Wear. I have had 2 Patagonia down coats now and wear them most days of winter.

I have owned several down sweater jackets for many many years. This is my first down sweater hoody and I love it even more.

The jacket still has a great fitted feel, but this one fits me better in the chest and armpit area for an active person. I have had shoulder issues recently, and just having seams in the wrong places on jackets is something I have noticed aggravates me. The movements you can do with your arms in this jacket is incredible. And it feels even lighter than my older jacket. The length is perfect. I ordered a size S so I can layer under and I don't like my jackets super tight. I will wear this jacket for during the colder weather (under my hunting outerwear because I am cold-natured), under my snowboard outer layer, and just a running around town jacket. I do wear my down sweater vest and the down sweater jacket at the same time. It works for me! Thank you Patagonia. As always, I am never disappointed.
Great jacket, warm and low bulk. Packable and light so it is great for travel. Great color selection as well. The only thing I didn't like is the Patagonia logo on the chest. It's too big and flashy.

Anyway, I carefully removed it with my seam reaper and it is now perfect.
Second time purchasing this jacket over 12 years. Not a bad turnaround.
Sizing: I purchased XS and it fits true to size. For a reference, I wear size 2 in most tops and 26-27 in bottoms. Fit cut, moves well.

If you are are gonna use this jacket in motion with a thin layer and you are a french sweater like me, go synthetic. I do own the nano (another great jacket, I will review).

Usage: I am using this skiing, snowshoeing, biking and reading books on my couch. Skiing, this is my last layer under a hard shell.
Yay or Nay: YAY! Love it.
PS: It goes on sale every February or so during the winter sale...just saying.
I like that I can wear a sweater or a shell over the jacket. I ended up going with XXS after reading lots of reviews based on size.

Not only is this jacket an excellent choice for me guiding in Patagonia it is also my wife’s favorite winter jacket for around the city. Stylish and functional.
I am 5’5”, 110 pounds and originally bought the XS and felt it was a bit large. So I ordered the XXS and it fits like a glove!

Patagonia has changed their pattern to fit all women who are shaped like a Barby doll. I am slim but I am not hour glass shaped and their women’s jackets all go in at the waist and flare out at the hips. They are limiting their demographic by cutting all their jackets the same way.

I purchased this because my present down sweater is somewhat big for me since I lost weight.

It has held up well through washings (with a down wash product) and still looks quite good.

It's just the perfect garment for all temperatures below mid-fifties (in a very damp, cold climate for 7-8 months of the year). I wear a shell over it for wet and cold conditions. The new down sweater I purchased in a medium (I weigh 135 lbs) has some new design features that give it a closer and comfortable but not too snug fit, and a better hood fit, too. The cobalt blue is a beautiful color, too. Definitely the go-to product for me.
I really wish this came in XXL. I normally wear an XL, but your brand runs smalls so I need to size up. The Sweater Jacket has XXL, but I want a hood. The Nano-Puff Hoodie only has XXL in boring colors. I love so much of what Patagonia stands for, but you are leaving out so many ladies that want to wear your brand. Please be more inclusive. Guys ge... Read Moret extended sizes, why can't us women!?!
I absolutely adore my down hoody. It is so comfortable for indoors and outdoors. My only complaint is that I got a royal blue with light blue on the interior of the hoody. My next purchase will definitely be for a black on that will be more versatile with my wardrobe.
great jacket! love the hood and the DWR is clutch. only potential downside is: i am a slightly broad shouldered lady so i can’t wear anything too thick underneath it, but it’s so warm that i don’t really need to!
I just purchased another one of these jackets. I've had my original one for three years. I live in a ski town and it is a great jacket for around town and I'll wear it up on the mountain on milder sunny days (think March/April). Quality has been excellent - as expected with Patagonia products.
The jacket fits super well! Unfortunately I've only had it for two weeks and feathers are already coming out of the seams on the left seam. Hopefully with a repair it will last me a few years!
Hey there Carly! Thank you for taking the time to provide us feedback on the Down Sweater Hoody. Down insulated items are prone to some leakage, especially from the seams, it's completely natural and shouldn't affect the warmth of your jacket. We recommend trying to pull the feather back in from the opposite side or use some tenacious tape to patch up any holes to prevent further leaking.
As always you are welcome to return the jacket for a free repair at any time!

Not as warm as expected.
I’ve owned another years model of this jacket previously (2016 maybe?)and it was MUCH warmer than the current model. I returned this years model
This is a good warm coat. I think it's great that this company will replace or repair if anything goes wrong over time. I will be buying from Patagonia again.
It is light weight and warm. Small fits perfect for 5'4 120 lbs. The orange is a softer shade than expected, but nice contrast with the maroon zipper and liner.
I got this as a gift for my daughter for Christmas so I can’t review it yet but my wife, my two daughters and I all have the black down sweater. We all agree it is the most effective and versatile piece of clothing that we own. I already know that my oldest daughter will love her down sweater hoody and the orange color will let her change things up... Read More a little!
When I first open the package I was disappointed because I thought I order the wrong jacket. It seemed too thin to be warm enough for a hard UP Michigan winter. I decided to wear it a couple of days to see if I could just use it as a light fall jacket. To my surprise, the jacket is more than warm enough. It blocks the wind and keeps my body so warm... Read More. Do not let the lightness of this jacket deceive you! It is nice and toasty :)
I bought this jacket before a last minute trip to Colorado at the end of October. On the plus size, it packs up super small and is very light. I love the way it fits - perfect for moving on a long hike. However I was disappointed to find it's not as heavy or warm as I would have liked. I ended up pairing this with a fleece and base layer.
I bought this for my wife and she loves it. No more shivering on the belay ledge and looking good in town after a day of turns. The hood helps her hide her embarrassment of me when I start hooting and hollering as she sends it. Fits perfectly, looks great, and a warm wife is a happy wife.
I needed something warmer than my Nano Puff and this Down Sweater Hoody hit the mark! It's still very lightweight but keeps me cozy and warm during chilly days. And for extra cold mornings, the hood is perfect!
Lightweight, but full coverage with no drafts. Comfortable hood and sleeves. I bought a large, though a medium would look better, I wanted a bit of extra room underneath. Great orange color.
Fits really nice, more shapely than my last one and a little bit linger in the back. Will be great under jacket for storm day s and super cute with legging s and skirts!
The Patagonia down sweater is the best piece of equipment I have when performing my duties as a NH ski patroller. When the offer came from PatagoniaPro to purchase for family members, I bought one each for my son & daughter. They also love them.
This is my favorite Patagonia piece! The large comfortable neck, light weight yet super warm material, and the fit is just right. I ordered a size small, am 5'6'' 120lbs and it's true to size. I look forward to more selection of colors in the future!
Love this jacket! It’s soft and flexible despite being puffy and not very low-profile. It’s super warm in pretty much all conditions; I’ve tested it down to -20 degrees with just a light long sleeve shirt underneath and it’s perfect. Zipping it up all the way covers my face with a soft layer of fleece.
Warm, Cozy and Flattering - color lighter than web image
I love this jacket! It is so warm, fits great and is flattering. The small touches of a micofleece nose/ chin guard and slightly longer sleeves are so nice for wearing around town, bike commuting and camping! The color was more muted than I anticipated - I expected something closer to a rust or iron orange. The Sunset is closer to a coral. I love t... Read Morehe chardonay/burgundy/purple interior for contrast. The only thing addition that I would like is the microfiber lining on the pockets for the next edition.
The jacket is perfect, thinner than I thought it would be, but warm as ever. Love the hood, it actually comes all the way over the top of your head and stays there, super warm!
This jacket has kept me cozy on many a mountain backpacking adventure. Packs very small, is super lightweight, yet is VERY warm! Supremely warmer than previous competitor brands I've used which were much heavier and bulky. I've worn it in the back-country for up to three weeks, and it's never let me "down". :)
I love this coat. Honestly, I think it is one of Patagonia’s best products. This is my second down sweater. The last one pretty much went everywhere with me for 8 years. The quality and construction make this a versatile layer. It is warm for its weight and fits comfortably. We live in a pretty chilly place, dominated by winter. This coat is the an... Read Moreswer most of the time - spring, fall and winter - either alone or as part of a layered system.
This is the best all-around jacket. Super warm and wind-proof, love the zip pockets. Only wish it had a bigger pocket on the inside for when I need to loose a layer or gloves, etc.
Jacket is very thin. I thought an 800 fill power would give a thicker, more substantial-feeling jacket for $300.
I do, however, appreciate the recycling aspect and humane down harvest.

More colors
Please make this in the light balsamic color!
The high-low version has the light balsamic color, but only 600-fill down for the same price as this one (down sweater hoody).
Great fit, love the color. I'm 5ft2in 98lbs and I wear size XXS. Last season's XXS was way too tight on me and the pockets were just too small didn't fit my hands. This season's colors are better and the sizing is just perfect!
Bought this for my wife to replace an older puffy and she was instantly very pleased. The jacket fit as expected and is now her go to for cold weather. Another great product from Patagonia!
I have a few other down jackets, but this one has quickly become my favorite! I love the soft lining at the front of the neck and it keeps me warm without adding bulk. I am 5' 4" with athletic/stocky build. I tried on the L but I felt like it had too much extra room so I went with a M. Great purchase!
This is a great comfortable and light coat. Many compliments, and so easy to wear in different conditions. However, the material tears easily so I find myself handling it gingerly when walking through forests or hanging with dogs that jump.
This jacket is phenomenal. I've worn it literally year round (and that's saying something, I live in the Northwest Territories!) and I find it to be warm enough and cool enough, good for layering, lightweight, and remarkably waterproof and windproof. Not perfect, as it's obviously a down jacket, but I've worn it with a heavy woo... Read Morel sweater underneath at -30 Celsius pretty regularly, and never felt cold. The hood is perfect, I wouldn't ever buy a down jacket without one now. Only shame is that it rips very easily. I sort of look like a walking roll of duct tape when I wear it these days :( For constant and everyday wear, especially around dogs/barbwire/edgy limestone, you need to really watch it.
This jacket has a great tailored fit. Perfect length and warmth for 15 degree and up weather. I’m impressed with the comfort and style of this jacket. I am 5’7, 130 lbs and the XS fit like a glove even with a heavy sweater underneath. Not a bulky look at all.
I also wanted to commend Patagonia on their service. I needed the jacket quickly but didn... Read More’t check the shipping dates. After calling them and getting ready to pay for a shipping upgrade, they upgraded me for free. It was at my door in 2 days. Super friendly and quality service can’t be beat!
I have had this jacket for three years and it is perfect. The jacket is so lightweight and comfortable to wear but keeps me warm in the Colorado mountain winter. I had washed it multiple times and is my go to jacket!
I purchased this jacket for an upcoming trip abroad. The fit is perfect and warmth cozy. The jacket is extremely lightweight, which makes it ideal for travel. As reference, I am 5’2” 112 lbs, and the XXS fit perfectly with light layers underneath. For more layering, sizing up might be preferable.
This down hoody is my most beloved wardrobe staple. It's so versatile, I can really wear it in any situation: as a layer under a shell, as a stand-alone, in the wind or snow.

good enough jacket, annoying "feminizing" features
this jacket has some things going for it - it's packable and warm. but it has some features that are presumably what patagonia think women want, since these design features are not found on the men's version of this jacket. some of these features affect the function/fit of the jacket more than others. the slim-fit cut of the jacket makes ... Read Moreit hard to layer, and forced me to size up because my regular size (S) can't fit around the hips, which means that I had to go with an M, which is slightly too large in the hips and gapes when the jacket is open. the torso of the jacket is also longer, which might not strictly be a slimming feature, but makes the jacket an awkward length on a person my height (5'4", which admittedly isn't that tall, so I hope the jacket works better for taller folks). other stuff is just aesthetic, but the difference between the men's version just confuses me: the baffling on the side, for instance - why is it thinner-ribbed than on the rest of the jacket?
the zippers also catch on the fabric pretty easily, and feel flimsy, as do the cuffs - they feel similarly cheap to the ones on the uniqlo ultra light down jackets, which are a third of the price of this jacket. if patagonia makes this jacket exactly in the men's silhouette (no stupid side panels) and in a short size, i'm buying it immediately. this one, though, goes back to the store.
This is my favorite coat! It it very warm and practical. It feels very light which is nice, but still keeps you nice and toasty! It’s perfect to brave snowy Colorado winters. I highly recommend this coat to anyone.
I recently bought this on the amazing Worn Wear site for a ridiculously great price. (The garment was apparently "faded throughout." Looks brand new to me.) I had fallen in love with my REI Magma 850 from last season, but wanted something with a hood. The Down Sweater is perfect for me and it feels warmer than the Magma. I've use thi... Read Mores to walk the dogs, bike to work, hike and car camp. Temps have fallen into the 20's here in MN and the Down Sweater has kept me warm. Fit is great. Seems like one of the few Patagonia items that's not slim fit. I'm shaped like an actual woman so "slim fit" means "doesn't fit" in my world. If that sounds like you, rest assured this coat will work out fine, even with layers. And thank you Patagonia for doing all you can to love and respect the environment. I will continue to support you and your products long into the future.
I love this jacket. I lost the stuff sack but use something else - packs easily, keeps me warm, still in great shape after 3 years. I have a medium and am 5'10" 145lbs, small around the middle but long arms. It fits over other layers fine.
This jacket is my first Patagonia purchase. I am 5’5” and 125 lbs and the Small fits perfect! It’s not right and not loose, just right. I was concerned as to how thin it appears but it’s actually very warm! I hate bulky winter coats so this is perfect for me. Highly recommend it.
I have purchased several hooded down sweaters over the years. The design from this year is my least favorite--so much so I didn't purchase one. The cut is much tighter in the torso than the one from two (?) years ago and the bottom is very unflattering to my (flat) behind; it makes my butt look much bigger because of the way it is cut. The cur... Read Morerent iteration is flared out and cut straight across. The down sweater I own from two years ago has a nice bias and a rounded shape in the back; it is slightly longer than the front but not too long. I tried on several sizes (as well as several different jackets) and NONE of them worked.
I usually love Patagonia clothing items but the past two years have been a bust on every item I tried on.
If someone said you can only go in and pick one item this would be it. I’m 5’5” 130 lbs. size M fits perfectly. I’m usuallly in between small and medium and the medium definitely fits best on this one. Warm, good zippers and light with a great fitting hood. If it’s cold or wet I add the triolet jacket and I’m good to go in any conditions.
Thanks fo... Read Morer making this one!

I am extremely hard to fit but stick with Patagonia because their small sizes usually fit and flatter me. Thank you for making XXS. Don't ever stop making this size! The jacket fits great and will keep me comfy AND chic!!! My only worry is about staining the jacket since I often spill food when I eat. I was reassured that a gentle detergent will clean up my messes I may make. Thank you, Patagonia for your usual awesomeness!!!
I got this as a gift for Xmas and unfortunately it's a bit snug. I don't original receipt for it so it's been very tough to try to return and get a M. i wish I. An return and exchange! I haven't been able to wear it at all!!
This jacket is magical and will be what I live in during winters from here on out,in the city and in the mountains. I add a rain shell over it for waterproofing. The lining in the high neck is super soft and with the hoody,adds a lot of warmth.

I've had this jacket for a month and really like it. It is warm,comfortable,and it fits well.

This jacket looks as cute as everything else I've got from Patagonia. The color is so perfect as well as it is the fitting. I tried to put different shells or coats (all size xs) on over it with no problem at all. It is truly lightweight and warm as others have said.
I cannot be more satisfied with this investment. It's all spring in Texas now. But I start to hope winter is coming back! LOL
I outgrew my old Down Sweater Hoody and sought out a replacement last fall,sadly I wasn't a fan of any of the colors options at that time and after much back and forth decided on an Arc'teryx Cerium LT instead.

I got a size Large to accommodate for layers underneath and to fit over my wider hips and it doesn't feel oversized or bulky,my previous size was a Medium and was just a little too snug in my hips.
I bought the down sweater jacket (with no hoody) over a year ago,and have used it for everything possible! Super easy to pack down and bring on hikes,camping,and travel in general!

I got this coat about a month ago and wear it everywhere. I wear it in my cold office,on the ski hill and everything in between. I get so many compliments on it and it is super comfortable. I love that Patagonia coats run a little on the bigger size so you can layer underneath.
Oh my gosh I cannot say enough good things about this jacket. i am always frozen. I mean completely frozen.

The hood is amazing and makes a nice tight fit around your face so the air doesn't get through the sides. It has a great fit considering how warm it is.

So I would say it is true to size. Those of you who have issues like me fitting into the nano puff jacket because it is tight across the shoulders-this jacket is not cut like the nano puff. There is plenty of room and I do not feel constricted at all. This is going to be my go to jacket all winter long.

After years of wear & several repairs I retired my old Down Sweater Jacket. Patagonia's fantastic lifetime guarantee on their products provided me with a credit to order a new one.

I loved this jacket,kept me so warm,so light,windproof... but now the XS is too tight in the arms & shoulders but boxy around my middle. The S is huge on me,would not be warm. One of the reasons I love this brand is that they have always cut for strong,athletic women. Now this jacket & all the Caplilene base layers I love are too tight for muscles in the arms & shoulders. Very disappointing. Now it's winter,I don't have a warm coat & am just going to sit on this credit until the sizing changes. 5' tall (or short,really),105 lbs,athletic build.
Down is fantastic,it keeps you warm and also packs down so small. This jacket is no different,it packs down nicely into it's internal pocket for storage and up until I washed it after a year,it kept me very warm. However,once I washed it and dried it with tennis balls in the dryer (as Patagonia says to do),it never returned to full loft. I sta... Read Morerted to feel cold around every single stitch and I've been losing down regularly since. The nylon material on the outside is so incredibly sensitive. I feel like I just have to look at it and it gets a hole. As a result,this jacket is no longer in my pack for mountain adventures but instead stays in the car as an extra dry layer for when I get back from a day of ski touring or a jacket for around town. It's been 2 years and if someone asked me if I would buy one of these jackets again,I would sadly have to say no. I'd rather go with a down jacket that has a thicker material on the outside like the Mountain Hardwear version. But really,I'm more likely to go with a thick merino loft jacket next time,even though packability is somewhat compromised,at least I won't ruin my jacket by washing it once.
Such a great down jacket for the price! Plus,I feel great wearing it knowing it's made from recycled polyester and traceable down. This is my go-to down jacket.

She did recommend knotting the threads so they don't pull through more,which seems to help. I'm pretty bummed about it and will probably send the jacket back to Patagonia in the spring to repair,although I think it will just happen again.
Pros:
The fit is great for me. I am 5'4" and around 140lbs. I got a medium. I have broad shoulders and hips but a narrow waist. The shoulders and hips fit great and the torso doesn't poof out funny. The length is great for me too. If I want it a bit shorter (for a harness) I can use the draw cords to cinch it up. The sleeve length is perfect. The hood is fantastic. I really appreciate the fleece around the face. I hate having my face directly on the nylon. The weight is good too. I am a pretty cold person. I have a heavier Patagonia down for when it gets really cold around town. But in the backcountry,this jacket is perfect with some extra layers (down vest).
I bought a down sweater without a hood about 5 years ago - I love it so much I wanted a second one with a hood. I bought the same size I had before (small) which still fits great,but this one was longer in the body than my old one. I returned the new one and plan to order a XS soon. I'm 5'5 and about 115lbs.

Patagonia,I would love to be a life-long customer (as I have with Merrell & Keen) but unless you redesign your cut OR make a petite alternative,I have to unwillingly move on to another brand.
I purchased this jacket a month ago and super happy with my purchase. I bought it to replace a much older version but went with the hood this time. I love the hood because when it's zipped up,it has a nice tight fit so all the warmth stays in.
Great colors and I finally don't have to wear a ton of bulky layers,yet still warm. Wore it standing in a short rain shower and never got wet on the inside and it dried within minutes.
This jacket is truly perfect.. I wear it every day from October to April. Its breathable yet warm so a perfect layer for any outdoor activity. It also packs really small - so very convenient to carry along. All around a super versatile jacket!
I absolutely love this puffy - it packs down small enough to carry on a multi-pitch climbing but it is very warm once you put it on. I run cold I am always shivering so once the shade hits or wind blows,this thing really does the trick!! I got a medium because I like to have layers underneath (its big enough to have a thick fleece under it but I ca... Read Moren also wear just a baselayer underneath).
I've had my eye on this hoody for a couple years now and finally pulled the trigger. So glad I did!
It's the perfect weight for wintertime in Montana,where it can vary from 35 and rain to -10 and wind in the course of a week. I do have to lighten my layers when it's above about 30 degrees,as I get too warm if I'm out hiking,sn... Read Moreowshoeing,or shoveling. The hood is a nice shape and fits over hats comfortably.
I'm 5'7" with an athletic build and the medium is just right - roomy enough for movement and layering,without being bulky. I bought it in Big Sur blue,and the color is gorgeous.
I need to replace my Down Sweater Hoody and am so disappointed in the new styling (2015) of this Down Sweater. It isn't a 'sweater' anymore,its now a jacket,and best suits anyone who is long and lean. All the rest of us will remain cold at Summer concerts,camping,bbqs etc. BRING BACK THE DOWN SWEATER HOODY.
I've received many compliments on this jacket in the short time I've had it. Very comfortable and the hood is perfect for rainy and/or cold days. This is my second Patagonia jacket an I'm very pleased with both.
I've been wearing my down sweater hoody every day since I got it at the end of the fall,and it has kept me warm and happy. It also packs so well for all of my traveling adventures!
I have had a few of these jackets and prefer the hoody. You can still wear a beanie under the hood of this jacket. It's windy and snowy here during the winter and the hood keeps your neck warm and out of the elements.
For Size Reference: SMALL -- I'm 5'9" 140 lbs semi-athletic build and average bust.
Bought this at the start of a particularly cold and snowy season in the NW. Love it! I generally buy medium coats and jackets,but after trying the both the Medium and Small with varying methods of layers I ended up keeping the Small because I could s... Read Moretill wear a heavy sweater under it comfortably. I wanted something warm but isn't cumbersome moving about during my daily routine. It's actually pretty light weight but you'll be warm if you layer properly and when you are moving about. Not waterproof,so would advise wearing a shell over it or another coat if it's pouring rain. Go for the rich colors they are gorgeous--I got sulfur yellow!
Love,love this down sweater. Bought if for occasional use but find I wear it all the time. I tend to be cold all the time so this jacket has become my 'go-to' jacket.
I've been using this jacket daily for a month,and I don't know how I went so long without it. It is exceptionally warm without ever being too hot,and it somehow is also wind resistant,all without weighing hardly anything. I am a true Patagonia convert after this jacket,and will be exclusively buying down sweaters going forward for my son ... Read Moreand any future children!
I bought this for a trip to Trier,Germany and it was great. Felt warm and snug against the cold. It's lightweight and packability was invaluable for convenience and comfort. The extra money spent on the hood was well worth it.
I bought this jacket for a trip to Antarctica but was able to test it out here in Oregon during this latest freeze. This jacket is very comfortable and warm. It's lightweight and works well either on its own or as a layer. I feel that it is true to size - I'm 5'5" 125lbs,have long arms and the sleeves do not ride up,which is gen...

I bought this jacket 2-weeks ago because WA's winter has been very cold. I fly fish in the Winter,and am outside a lot. This coat does very well in temps 20-32 F. It is a big relief over layering multiple shirts and jackets as I was doing before to compensate. I also love the hood because it keeps my head,neck,and face so warm and protected fr... Read Moreom the cold and wind. My one hope for a future model is more water resistance. If there is any chance of rain I am very careful to wear my Patagonia raincoat over this because with water penetration it loses all warmth quickly. Still I highly recommend this coat for people frequently in below freezing temps.
I purchased this coat before heading to North Dakota in December to be a medic at standing rock. I wore this coat under a waterproof shell while on duty as a medic,withstanding temperatures of -30 in driving snow,and was kept completely warm. I would absolutely recommend this coat and thank Patagonia for excellent customer service.
I have two Nano Puffs and decided I needed something warmer sometimes so I got this Down Sweater and indeed it is wonderfully warm! The first time I wore it for a light walk at zero degree temperatures I overheated! I only have two minor issues with the jacket. I wish that the sleeves were a little longer- the Nano Puff I got two years ago had slee... Read Moreves slightly longer than my first and I was ecstatic,but now it seems Patagonia when shorter again. I have very long arms so am a little disappointed. And the inner left pocket is a bit too big. When I put my phone in it,it drops down a little too far to easily get back out with gloves on. I'm sure it is great for storing other things in it,but it had become my go-to phone pocket in the other jackets.
I bought this jacket for a trip to Iceland in December. It packs down into a small bundle (that doubled as a pillow on my flight),was toasty warm,easy to add layers underneath and looks super cute. I have since used in on our cold desert mornings and evenings. I was looking for a warm,lightweight down jacket that would be versatile for all sorts of... Read More travel. It's perfect!
First Patagonia clothing I've ordered-on recommendation of my daughter! I wanted something really comfortable for driving without a lot of bulk or weight. This has been very satisfactory. It's hard to imagine actually being "warm" & dry without having the excessive weight from the jacket! I think I could have worn a size med...
