I can tell this jacket is going to be a go-to for me. The large fits me perfectly in my broad shoulders without being too loose or too snug. It fits so nicely under my puffer jackets. The thumb holes are the cherry on top. Couldn't think of a more perfect fleece for hiking.

the color ( caviar ), style, quality, fit, and especially warmth - it has it all! I was looking for a micro fleece full zip which is very difficult to find nowadays. I love this garment!

This is a great fleece that layers perfectly under a ski shell. I love the polartec panels on the side that provide more give and flexibility. It's also super warm!

Ordered this on a whim for an upcoming trip to Europe. Even at Backcountry still fairly expensive for a fleece. I am so glad that I ordered this. I have an athletic build with curvy hips and weigh 176 so I ordered a large. Fit is perfect. I have worn it all day today while running errands. Glad I decided to treat myself and can't wait to wear this on my trip

i am 5'5 @125lbs, and i bought this in the Medium - which hits low on the hips for nice backside coverage, while the arms fall to the second knuckle on my hands- which also has thumb loops. I like to use this piece for layering, it's not restrictive, nice movement, and very lightweight.

Just got the jacket. Like it overall, but there is a small functional problem. First the positives. It is indeed made of Thermal Pro, which is a highly efficient fleece, in terms of warmth to weight ratio. At only 8.5 oz, I was planning to use it year round for backpacking and skiing. It's really fashionable, enough for daily use, the blue color is very bright, and the sewn-on Norrona and Falketind logos are bright green. Given the warmth and loft of the fleece, it'll certainly be enough for 3 season outerwear, and layering for skiing. The wrist looks a bit different from the picture here, most notably there are thumb holes, and they are low bulk and work well. Now on to the functional issue. I know the Falketind line is designed for lightweight mountaineering, so the side pockets are placed high to make it easy for use with harness. However, the top of the pockets really interferes with the female anatomy, making it rather bulky if you know what I mean - and I'm pretty skinny. The key is you cannot wear an underwire bra - but hey when you are out there in the wild, you probably won't anyway.
