Marmot Women's Milo Jacket

It's going to be a great coat.
I think this will be a great purchase. I like the lightness of the coat, yet is very warm. So glad not to have all the bulk and can put a shell over this jacket. I especially like the length of the jacket since it covers my backside. Only drawback thus far is color, Ivory, allows down feathers to show through and sometimes makes me think I have a spot on the jacket. I would have purchased black to avoid, but I really needed a lighter colored jacket to go with other outdoor wear. The jacket is still new, but I can see how snags could be an issue. Warmth was my biggest concern, not sure how it would perform with wind, although the fabric seems wind resistant; I am not sure about rain. I like the jacket very well, and for the price I paid, I feel I received a great product that is well made and good looking.

Good find
I looked long and hard for a tailored down jacket that was longer than my long sweaters and tops, but not as long as 3/4 length. I think this coat may be the only one out there - it hits just at the bottom of my hip. It is snug and fitted, so if you like more room, you might want to size up. It feels really lightweight, but so far is keeping me toasty. My one complaint is that I have noticed the coat is shedding a few small feathers through the seams. I would definitely recommend to people looking for a longer jacket.

Warmest winter jacket at affordable price!
Overall, the Milo jacket is great. My friend has the Mens 800 fill Marmot jacket and recommended the women's venus. This was too short for me as I ride a bicycle, so the Milo with extra 2 inches allow for coverage of back. I would wear this in a light snow, but not in rain. I think the jacket fits well - I'm 5'8 155 and it fits my body snuggly, not bulky. The jacket is very warm, but not instantly. It actually takes body heat to warm you up. The arms are a little short and I think one would need to be sure to wear long gloves or pull long sleeves down to risk. No hood is helpful, as I can bundle up with other accessories depending on weather. Two inside pockets are helpful, do wish exterior pockets were a little larger.
