Great Layer
Have an older version of this jacket that I love. This one is even better- it has thumbholes and the insulation is improved. The loft is great and I had to check the tag to believe it wasn’t down.

Extremely happy with this purchase
Jacket fits me very well and has definitely been a good addition to my winter setup (temps in the 30s and damp). Warm but not bulky, packs down small enough to easily stuff it in my bag.

Excellent puffy
I love this jacket - it’s lightweight, comfortable, and packable. This is my second shadow hoodie, and the most recent version has longer sleeves. Not a huge deal, but if I’m not using the thumb looks, I fold the sleeves inward to sit on my wrist. I’m 6’2”, 205lbs and ordered the large.

Exterior shell problems
I brought it about 2 months ago , found exterior shell white fibres came out, feel not reliable and durable material.

My Shadow is AMAZN
This jacket is great !! I received this jacket about a month ago and have been very impressed so far. It is very warm considering how light it is and very comfortable. The level of water resistance is more than capable for light rain and light snow.

Warm and light weight; my only complaint is the lack of zipped chest pocket found on most other mid layers and shells that OR offers.

Sizing
The jacket is comfortable and mostly fits. When I purchased the jacket I didn't look closely at the sizing chart. The store offers a medium jacket, and that's what I needed with the exception of the arm length. I needed a medium/long, the arm's of the jacket are too short. The tag that is on the jacket has M/M which makes me wonder if the jacket may come in the correct size however OR doesn't offer it at the online store.

Warm, stylish and water resistant for hours
Pros: Good insulation, stylish fit for city and outdoor wear, handles rain for upton3-4 hours Cons: Zipper gets stuck and takes longer to dry once wet

Almost Awesome.
I bought this to replace a northface summit series. I love the inside pockets for gloves and hats when not in use but could use a chest pocket preferably on the outside and the hood is so tight it crushes a ball cap and if I have the hood up and want to zip the jacket all the way it’s so tight I feel strangled.
